Goal of the project:
Robots instead of N-bombs: Statistically, people prefer robots to the word “n-word.” The word “n-word” is ugly and pejorative. Robots are fun and cool…even when they’re trying to take over our world! So we’ve decided to take the word “n-word” out of Mark Twain’s classic and replace it with “robot.”
The video presentation is funny and well done. Reddit user aytch was so inspired and beat them to it, kinda.
I feel so uninspired even though there’s a lot of news today.
iPhone 4 on Verizon are available in stores.

Bing beats Google, so someone says.
Some Analysis firm says that Bing is better than Google. Then Google’s Matt Cutts responds.
Till next time.
Marin Independent Journal reports that Lars Ulrich of Metallica fame is being sued by his former assistant, Steven Wiig.
A Sausalito man who worked as a personal assistant to Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich has filed a lawsuit claiming years of unpaid overtime.
Steven Wiig, 38, is seeking unspecified damages for alleged state and federal labor violations, breach of oral contract and continuing wages, according to the suit in Marin Superior Court. The lawsuit names Ulrich and Team Tours, a Burbank company that issued Wiig’s paychecks, as defendants.
A case management conference is set for June 24 before Judge Lynn Duryee.
Steven Wiig appeared at 1996’s Metallica Club Fan Can #1. Wiig can also be seen in 2004’s Metallica documentary Some Kind Of Monster.

It is funny how some Verizon Store employees are trying to make last minute sale on non-iPhone 4 on Tuesday.
