Surf W/Best Links Of 2007
THE BEST ALL NIGHT SURFING SITES OF 2007, plus CARY GRANT ON LSD AND ON BECOMING CARY GRANT!
With over 1200 links the past year here at ALL NIGHT SURFING it was difficult to pick the top dozen. I might even pick a different dozen if I waited a day. You can always go back by using the calendar on the side of these posts and clicking on the arrows above the calendar to find links you may have missed. But for tonight, here are my picks for the best posts of 2007.
From January of 2007:
This gallery of stunning erotic photos, which includes celebrities as well in kinky clothes and nude, is a must see. But not ok for work! Brilliant artist!

| Gwyneth Paltrow, New York 1999 WOW! |
From Feburary:
Everything you ever wanted to know about the BetelNut Girls of Taiwan!
http://www.boingboing.net/2007/01/12/betelnut_girl_photos.html
From March:
There was something in the air in the early years of commercial aviation. Perhaps more excitement, perhaps more glamorous stewardesses... in any case, it's worth savoring once again.
From April:
When a successful pop singer announces they want to write their own music you can bet the record companies get worried. When 19 year old Joss Stone announced she was writing her own material I'm sure they were nervous and afraid. Guess what? She pulled it off! 19 years old, an incredible voice (Aretha Franklin called her the best soul singer around) and a really good songwriter. DAMN!
From May:
Here's something you could do if you're bored on a Friday night and need food and fun. OL Shabu Shabu Shomuni is a shabu shabu restaurant that just opened in November, and it serves more than just boiled beef and vegetables. The waitresses are all dressed like Office Ladies, and are required to strip down to the nude and then put on a slutty outfit at request, while you eat out of their hands. Yes, their hands! No chopsticks here. http://www.tokyomango.com/tokyo_mango/2007/01/new_restaurant_.html#more
From June:
From July:
Hello Kitty Hell is the best, funniest website on HELLO KITTY I have ever seen. Yet while keeping tongue firmly in cheek, you are also informed of all the goings on in the Hello Kitty empire. Did you know there was a Hello Kitty musical for example? Like Hello Kitty or hate it, you will love this blog: http://www.hellokittyhell.com/
From August:
This gallery of mostly-Polish vintage movie posters, many for American-made films, is absolutely amazing. via: BOING BOING. These are true stunning works of art. They put our movie posters to shame.
From September:
DR. WHO in cartoon form! On the net!
From October:
From November:
In 1943, Ansel Adams (1902-1984) documented the Manzanar War Relocation Center in California and the Japanese Americans interned there during World War II. The Library of Congress presents for the first time side-by-side digital scans of both Adams's 242 original negatives and his 209 photographic prints, allowing viewers to see his darkroom technique and in particular how he cropped his prints.
When he offered the collection to the Library in 1965, Adams wrote, "The purpose of my work was to show how these people, suffering under a great injustice, and loss of property, businesses and professions, had overcome the sense of defeat and dispair [sic] by building for themselves a vital community in an arid (but magnificent) environment…All in all, I think this Manzanar Collection is an important historical document, and I trust it can be put to good use." http://memory.loc.gov/ammem/collections/anseladams/aamsp.html
From December:
As a few of you may know, I am a fan of the Lyric Opera http://www.lyricopera.org/ Yep. You are as apt to run into me at a DJ Tiesto event, The Decemberists, White Stripes, The Shop Boys, Regina Spektor- or the Lyric Opera. I was fortunate to see Danielle de Niese as Cleopatra, the most sexy and amazing Cleopatra I have ever seen in any medium in Handel's JULIUS CESARE (Giulio Cesare). Look at this (and yes, those are World War 1 and 2 weaponry in the backdrop), here is her war victory dance:
The days of the fat lady singing are long gone. This is opera today!
Uncut sex appeal
This opera from 1724 performed for over 4 hours is great fun and speeds by- too fast.
Just kill me now!
As a Lyric Opera subscriber for several years now, let me request more Danielle De Niese, doing ANYTHING. The standing ovation at the end of the show was deserved- and earned. If you'll excuse me, I have to watch this again: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dcVg1UtQLNQ
OK, NOW THAT'S DONE, SO HERE'S A NEW LINK FOR BEST SITE OF THE DAY:
WHY CARY GRANT STILL MATTERS
Cary Grant was one of the first people to speak out in public about LSD and how it had expanded his life. Here is what he wrote:
"I pretended to be somebody I wanted to be and I finally became that person. Or he became me. Or we met at some point." That meeting—when Archie Leach, the Bristol-born son of a part-Jewish suit presser, came to be fully assimilated by his creation, Cary Grant—amounts to one of the great events in the annals of twentieth-century culture. It created what the critic David Thomson (in A Biographical Dictionary of Film, the finest reference book on the movies) flatly declares to be "the best and most important actor in the history of the cinema." And it's a joy to watch: although the meeting was years in the making, you can actually see it come to fruition in a single movie, Leo McCarey's The Awful Truth (1937). Grant's performance in that film was, in every sense, transformative. http://www.theatlantic.com/doc/200701/schwarz-cary-grant

There are so many cool places to watch amazing material on your computer, streaming without need for a download, that I thought ALL NIGHT SURFING should do a special theme on this phenomenon:
SPECIAL THEME: TV, FILMS, MOVIES, MUSIC ON THE NET
As kids we always thought the idea of ham radios, short and long range radios were cool. The net has provided all that and more.
This site in unbelievable. When you arrive you notice you have access to TV channels all over the world. Then you click on a category. Want to watch one of the many all horror, comedy or mystery channels? How about music? Dancehall, reggae music videos from from France or West Africa perhaps? You've only begun to search the site and you will be hooked.
Underground films more to your liking? This site comes to us courtesy of Bryan Wendorf with Chicago Underground Film Fest http://www.ubu.com/film/
White Springs TV is public domain cartoons and movies, made for TV movies from the 1970's and 1980's ( I watched a film directed by Jonathon Demme starring Christopher Walken, Susan Sarandon and Chicago's own Aaron Freeman called WHO AM I THIS TIME? that was fantastic. Written by Kurt Vonnegut, Jr as well. Other jems abound). When you check out the schedule remember it's listed eastern time and if necessary, adjust. http://whitesprings.tv/
The best internet radio station of the year has to be WFMU out of New Jersey. From MUSIC TO SPAZZ which has insane novelty, odd and cool music to ANTIQUE PHONOGRAPH playing ancient early twenties music, and everything in between, you really should check this out. http://www.wfmu.org/table
WOLFGANG'S VAULT made headlines when the owner bought Bill Graham's garage- filled with master tapes of live shows from the 1960's on. You can hear these live shows 24/7 and the site- even the ones that you can buy are available FOR FREE streaming! http://www.wolfgangsvault.com/
STAGE 6 is unbelievable. From rarely seen techno, rave, hiphop and rock videos, all in incredible DivX format- to more than I can even wade through of all types- this buries most of the tube stations out there. A must. If you haven't downloaded DivX you can do so at the site or at http://download.com . It is my favorite player. Ckick on the video when its playing to go full screen. http://www.stage6.com/
Bryan Wendorf also sends us the first art rock radio station- which started as a pirate station and is now legit:
A web forum completely devoted to sharing streaming links. This is possibly one of the ultimate resources on the internet for finding Movies, TV Shows and Cartoons. At any given time there is at least 1000 registered users online, usually more, and the amount of content they have managed to amass in such a short time span is stunning. Couple that with an active group of moderators who continually take down broken videos and you've got a winning combination. Via Kazoop: http://www.movieforumz.com/
This amazing website streams videos of all genres; Bollywood, Anime, Movies, TV Series, Cartoons and the list continues. What's so slick about Joox is their video quality and 100% working video rate. http://joox.net/
BEST SITE OF THE DAY:
Nabolister is a Movie Sharing, TV Series linking, Video-Site-Rating powerhouse of a community. But it's more than just that. It's also an incredibly powerful search engine that indexes virtually all known movie link websites. It wasn't just one feature that pushed Nabolister ahead of all others, but rather a combination of all useful tools and functions that the site has to offer. To list some wouldn't do them justice, but we'll go for it anyway.
- Search hundreds of websites for any video
- Excellent Community
- Rating system for videos AND video sites
- Content, Content, Content (Tons of it)
- Games, Music Videos, Backstage Nabolister

Surf W/Vatican Exorcism Squad!
BACON SCENTED TUX, DISPOSABLE EMAIL ACCOUNTS, BILL MAHER'S 13 DICKHEADS OF 2007, THE DAY iPODS KILL GOOD SOUND HAS ARRIVED!
The Pope has ordered his bishops to set up exorcism squads to tackle the rise of Satanism. Vatican chiefs are concerned at what they see as an increased interest in the occult.
If you give Web sites and new contacts a disposable email address instead of your real one, you can selectively disable a disposable address as soon as you get spam through it, but continue using all other aliases. Disposable email address services provide this basic functionality, but some have other neat features that make life with email less spam and more fun. http://email.about.com/od/disposableemailservices/tp/disposable.htm

THE ORIGINAL I AM LEGEND ONLINE!, THE REPRESSED MEMORY HOAX, THE SMOKING GUN HAS A MOVIE PAGE, BOB DYLAN TICKET STUBS AND POSTERS, 2007: THE YEAR OF THUGS!
The best kept secret on THE SMOKING GUN website isn't the mug shots of celebs- it's the very cool videos! Check out the 1952 swim suits and the sweater girls!
Repressed memory of trauma is such a striking effect. Why did no one notice it till the 20th century? Maybe because it never existed in the first place!
The 1939 compelling cartoon, PEACE ON EARTH
From Boston, Massachusetts USA, the definitive online resource for Bob Dylan ticket and concert poster images, with over 3000 scans. These images are presented as a collector's reference and for the free use and enjoyment of all.
By the time she had realised her mistake - that as one of Germany's top communists she should probably not be seen eating lobster - it was too late. There was no time to switch from the €22 (£16) "rich man's dish" to a more modest platter of kippers, because Sahra Wagenknecht had already been caught on camera in the act of betraying her own political ideals.
So the photogenic MEP for Germany's Left party set about trying to destroy the evidence of what happened that night in the Strasbourg restaurant Aux Armes in a manner that has sent ripples of scorn across Germany. http://www.guardian.co.uk/germany/article/0,,2229145,00.html

Before I AM LEGEND, the classic science fiction film has been made twice- once with Vincent Price THE LAST MAN ON EARTH, and once with Charlton Heston, THE OMEGA MAN. Here is the original Vincent Price film, that was a major influence on NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD, and closer to the book, too!

NEIMAN MARCUS INDULGENT GIFTS, BEST AIRFARE COMPARISON SITE, THE LAKOTA INDIANS HAVE LEFT THE UNITED STATES- YOU CAN TOO!
Was there a real Saint Nicholas? YES! Saint Nicholas, also known as Nikolaus in Germany and Sinterklaas (a contracted form of Sint Nicolaas) in the Netherlands and Flanders, is the common name for the historical Saint Nicholas of Myra, who lived in 4th century Byzantine Anatolia, (now in modern Turkey) and had a reputation for secret gift-giving. This is as much as is generally known about him in the West.
This is the most shocking footage of 2007, a fairground ride collapses!
Airfarewatchdog.com is the only airfare alert and comparison site that includes fares on *all* airlines, including Southwest, Skybus, Allegiant, and JetBlue. If you're relying on any other source, then you're overpaying for airfare. http://www.airfarewatchdog.com/Home/tabid/36/Default.aspx
Sitting Bull
The Lakota Indians, who gave the world legendary warriors Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse, have withdrawn from treaties with the United States, leaders said Wednesday.
"We are no longer citizens of the United States of America and all those who live in the five-state area that encompasses our country are free to join us," long-time Indian rights activist Russell Means told a handful of reporters and a delegation from the Bolivian embassy, gathered in a church in a run-down neighborhood of Washington for a news conference. http://rawstory.com/news/2007/Descendants_of_Sitting_Bull_Crazy_Horse_1220.html
Dallas luxury retailer Neiman Marcus has unveiled this year's Christmas catalog full of over-the-top gifts—including a $1.4 million submarine.
Also available are a $73,000 diamond-encrusted cell phone and a robot that can carry on a conversation for $75,000. For those looking to impress their friends, there's also a private concert with the Kirov Orchestra for about $1.6 million.
Neiman Marcus, celebrating its 100th anniversary, kicks off its holiday shopping season with the catalog that offers products for $25 up to $2.3 million.
UC Irvine concludes that Muslim students destroying Holocaust memorial, defacing campus with swastikas, throwing rocks at Jews, shouting "slaughter the Jews," was directed at Israeli policy and so not racist http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/spages/936677.html

You can get a free dinner with as many calories as 10 Big Macs at the Big Texan Steak Ranch in Amarillo, Texas, if you can eat a 72-ounce sirloin steak, a baked potato, a salad, a dinner roll, and a shrimp cocktail in 60 minutes or less. And if you're craving 10 pounds of junk food on a single plate, just go to Eagle's Deli in Boston, Massachusetts, where the 10-storey Challenge Burger rises so high you practically need a ladder to eat it. Fast food makes such a savory scapegoat for our perpetual girth control failures that it's easy to forget we eat less than 20 percent of our meals at the Golden Arches and its ilk. It's also easy to forget that before America fell in love with cheap, convenient, standardized junk food, it loved cheap, convenient, independently deep-fried junk food. http://reason.com/news/show/123473.html
