The Louie Report

There is a site where you can learn everything you ever wanted to know about the song "Louie Louie."
The LOUIE LOUIE Advocacy and Music Appreciation Society (LLAMAS) was formed in early 2007 by a group of musicians, fans and collectors with a particular (and in some cases obsessive) interest in the song LOUIE LOUIE.

LLAMAS has a blog about the song Louie Louie. There’s a lot more material than you may think! Link -via Metafilter

Chocolate-Covered Jeep

Anne Gemkow of Chicago won a new Jeep in a Sweetest Day contest in Cleveland by licking a chocolate-covered Jeep grill clean! Seven Jeeps were covered in chocolate, and the first two contestants who licked their grills clean had to shuffle through a Jeep filled with candy to find the key. No word on how they removed the rest of the chocolate from the vehicles. Link -via Unique Daily

Mac Classics find a new life as hi-tech Jack-o-Lanterns!
There's still time to make your own. Besides a working computer and a little technical know-how (very little), all you need is three cans of spray paint and a bit of epoxy. And here's the best part...no slimy guts to clean out!
