Ren and Stimpy in Life Sucks Animatic
This is a storyboard reel (animatic) from an epic Ren and Stimpy story called "Life Sucks". Many of the folks who worked on it figured it was the best R and S story we had ever written. Unfortunately it was never produced.

How long in the freezer does it take to chill a Coke from 89F to 35F?
"That would be about 20-25 minutes in a freezer. If you put it in a bucket of ice, that would halve that time. If you put water in that ice, it'd be cold (+- 5c) enough to drink in about 4-6 minutes, if you put salt in that water, you'd reduce the chill time to just over 2 minutes. Agitating the can in the water, rolling it around, reduces the chill time even more.The fastest possible way is to grab a CO2 fire extinguisher and unload that sucker on the can.

the pet owner records a message of up to 10 seconds into a small, battery-powered, electronic device called the TalkBox, which fits under the bowl, and as the pet approaches, a photocell in the bowl plays back the owner's message.

HUMMIN' SLOWED BY STRUMMIN'
During the radio interview, Dombrowski said the Tigers' athletic training staff discovered that Zumaya's forearm pain was more consistent with the action of a guitar player than a baseball pitcher. The Tigers asked Zumaya to stop playing the video game, and he did. Zumaya then pitched pain-free during the World Series, and went 0-1 with a 3.00 ERA in three appearances.

Back tomorrow
I got the invite to switch to the new Blogger beta but when I started toying with it I didn't think of the fact that I would lose all my feed links and other stuff so I'm busy fixing it. We'll be back tomorrow.
