This is kind of scary. It seems like something similar could easily trick a lot of people into installing evil things on their PC.

Of course, receiving an email with an attachment named "OMG look how far she gets it in!.exe" is probably enough to trick most of those people into installing evil things...

Lightning Storm During Volcanic Eruption

I have nothing pithy to say; it was just an awe-inspiring picture.

So, Weezer made this great video: http://www.boingboing.net/2008/05/23/weezer-video-stars-l.html

I loved it, but the real gem comes from the comment thread on BoingBoing...
