Whiz of the Web: Tuesday Torpedoes

The shapeless dough of the internet, formed into tasty pellets and baked to perfection, just for you.

• Wendy's Training video rap! So awful and mind-destroying, we had to pass it on to you. (Via)
• Wil Wheaton is reviewing old episodes of ST:TNG on TV Squad now?! That's so awesome. And don't worry, he pulls no punches. He's particularly brutal when speaking about one Ensign Wesley Crusher... (Via)
• The trailer for Flags of Our Fathers (Eastwood's WWII movie that's in English) is now available in Windows Media format here. It is perhaps a bit corny and cliche, but we're still looking forward to these films hopefully.
• We told you a while back about how a film we were looking forward to got booed at a film festival; now we have similar but much happier news: Pan's Labyrinth got a lengthy standing ovation at the Toronto International Film Festival. Seems like a good sign!
• Wired points out that terrorism is still one of the least likely causes of death in the US and puts together a color-coded statistical graph (a little more useful than that other color-coded alert system) that tells you what you should really be worrying about.
• Before he became beloved children's book author and illustrator Dr. Seuss, Theodore Geisel drew political comics and advertisements. This earlier work is perhaps not as instantly fun and engaging as his later work, but it has the same beautiful, fantastical style that we all love. (Via)
