LD continues this week with more submissions than ever before! Thanks again for all the stuff. From Sasquatch, viral marketing, Weird Al, cartoons, odd news and much more, it certainly is a boulliabaise this week, so let's get down to it.---
THIS JUST IN: Connie Chung has a nervous breakdown on the air!
"THE ratings-starved Maury Povich and Connie Chung weekend show on MSNBC ended its short, six-month run with a bizarre send-off - sure to live on as a tone-deaf stunt Chung will not soon be allowed to forget. Perched on the edge of a white grand piano and decked out in a full-length evening gown, the former CBS and CNN anchorwoman warbled a farewell song that put down Dan Rather (with whom she co-anchored the CBS news in the early 1990s), her husband and cable TV - all at the same time."Via Drudge.

You have got to love the Japanese. Ok, maybe you don't. But this has got to be the weirdest Japanese video I've seen to date. What gets me are the old men exercising and chanting these bizarre American phrases. If anyone can explain this to me, I'd love to hear what's going on. Thanks Dan!

Got this from several people including DJ Hojo and Randy in OK: Messin' With Sasquatch, which seems to be a viral campaign for new brand Jack Links Beef Jerky. Bravo. Check out the commercial. And Sasquatch even has a MySpace profile!

It goes without saying, we love Weird Al. And you can download a new free Weird Al song here. Thanks to Randy for the heads up.

From Wayne and Aaron: Some KFD News. And just for good measure, here's the American version.

From Charley: Trypod Viral Marketing.

Check out Chad's new blog: Life of Mimcry. Cool drawings and more!

This just in from The Very Cool Dept. Videos of Jonathan Coulton performing live. For some of us, this is as close as it'll come to us actually seeing him perform.
---
From Neil: Fans of Joel, Mike and the Bots will dig this link: Be Your Own MST. I was looking into this for the podcast, but there seems to be no way to record this for an audio or video presentation that would be even slightly worth watching. Too bad, because I really dig this idea.

Also the "Send Jawbone to the PME Fund" continues along. Thanks to all who have contributed: Dave, Sebastian, Clinton, Matt and Tim have helped to get us closer to our goal! You can check the link on the side to see how well we're doing and even to contribute!
Thanks again for all the support and thanks for listening/reading Jawbone.
