Eddie Izzard – LEGO Darth Vader

A couple of years ago one of my co-workers introduced me to the comedy of Eddie Izzard. The guy is hilarious. So when I saw this video on Elizabeth’s blog called Getting My Blog On, I had to watch it. The video does have a couple of swears but for the most part it is pretty tame, but it is hilarious. Such a fun thing about a mundane event in the life of Darth Vader.

Also Eddie Izzard is in that TV show, the riches. Very different than his cross dressing stand up routine. I have to go and borrow those DVDs again to catch Eddie’s act. If you watch the video above you will probably laugh out loud.

Here is another great video from Eddie Izzard using LEGO as a way to convey it.

There are many more videos at this link on YouTube.

Time to find hosting…

I have Seven blogs. Five are being hosted on Blogger which is free but is restricted. Also no one wants a blogger account to do any advertising for them, regardless of the popularity of that blog. It is unfair but true. So, what is a guy who makes a little bit of money with his blogs to do? He’s got to find a way to self host his blogs. That is what he has to do. I want to get the most for my money so I am going to want to find the best web hosting services possible.

I found a site called Top 10 Web Hosting that spells out exactly what you get for your money at the top 10 web hosting sites online. This site tells you the monthly fees, the amount of space you get, the amount of bandwidth you get. You can also compare overall ratings of each and every one of the web hosting solutions.

So I feel that it is time to get web hosting for my blog The Wired Kayaker. I would like to find the type of hosting that will allow me to put up my monthly (I’m shooting for monthly) podcasts so that I can have them automatically be added to iTunes. I will need storage space and good bandwidth. Luckily I can look at Top 10 Web Hosting and quickly determine which service will best meet my needs.
