Video of the Week: Earthquake Tragedy in Haiti
Eliza Leigh and Humanoid Translator | January 13, 2010 | 1:00 pm

Yesterday’s 7.0 earthquake was followed by aftershocks of smaller magnitude but the damage done to the region was catastrophic.  The earthquake struck 10 miles outside the capital of Haiti, causing incomprehensible destruction in the densely populated city while those in Santo Domingo rushed out of their homes during tremors.  With buildings flattened and more barely standing, the amount of people dead or injured is yet unclear but is estimated to be in the thousands.

According to an article on Live Science, there are reports of escaped inmates after the main prison in the capital collapsed today.  Another article from ABC talks about Disaster Relief.

Here is a PhotoEssay from today and yesterday.  Thinking of those effected by this disaster.

Video of the Week: Nota from Sing Off
Eliza Leigh and Humanoid Translator | December 23, 2009 | 6:00 am

Do I really need to say more?  They had so many great performances but ding-a-ling hitting those notes is not easy, especially a capella.  Believe me, as a gifted mutant ant even I struggle to- ahhh, stay alive!

“Why are you running away from me Eliza Leigh?  Come back it is only your medicine.”

*Update: Orginally I found a great clip of Nota on YouTube but then TheSingOff channel took them all down.  Waaa!  Ooh, but instead I found the jackpot uploaded from RickeyTVX aka Rickey.Org *

Do you remember this show?  It kills me.  Watch the mini episode above. 
I don’t think that was a very good vet, kids don’t try that at home.  Especially if you have cows.

Video of the Week: Mad Men~ Sesame Street Style
Eliza Leigh and Humanoid Translator | October 13, 2009 | 9:00 am

I used to love this show growing up and it’s amazing that it is now into it’s 40th season!  So what’s new on the magical street home to Big Bird? 

A Mad Men spoof. I won’t lie, I still have yet to see the show but perhaps watching puppets mimic first will bring me one step closer!

New episodes of Sesame Street start next month and don’t forget to visit their YouTube channel too.

“Can you tell me how to get…”

How you doin?

“Great, thanks for asking.”

Not YOU human! 

Here’s another short clip of Chris Kattan-

“I missed Bollywood Hero.  D e v a s t a t e d.”

So was he when Wendy wouldn’t let him “fake” kiss her.

Video of the Week: Sound of Music Moment
Eliza Leigh and Humanoid Translator | September 16, 2009 | 8:02 am

We all need to take a moment occasionally.  Okay some need days.  Imagine you’re rushing to work via the public transportation system and when you’re running to your train (which hopefully won’t crash like a MBTA Commuter) you begin to hear a joyful voice. 

Julie Andrews is not announcing delays or that beer is not served until after ten in the morning but she is singing like any bad nun-in-training could.

Watch this delightful and I believe advertising ploy that went down in Belgium.  Because they get down there.  Especially, the man that begins the dance-a-thon, he was doing triple axles at least.

“Eliza, please let the readers watch the video.  They don’t know how lucky they are to watch it without a tone-deaf mutant ant chiming in.”

Oh yeah!  At least they-

Eliza stars in her first movie.  It’s an one minute movie with a mystery at the end.  Watch it, then finish the story below.  It is voiceless (apart from the chirping birds), a bit noisy and captioned.
