This is random but hilarious. Jed Whedon, Joss Whedon’s brother, just put out an album. While searching for someplace other than iTunes (Amazon.com would have been good Jed) to get the album I stumbled upon an “interview” Joss did with Jed for his album.

My World Cup Ringtone Creation

I was listening to This Week in Tech (TWiT) this morning and, after watching the USA vs. England soccer match over the weekend, Leo Laporte provided more vuvuzela action than I ever wanted to hear again.
