The Mystery of Mereana Mordengard Glasgow

Mereana Mordengard Glasgow is an odd term related to an even odder (and possibly sinister) video. It's hard to find much information on the subject, but according to one Web site it refers to a video that shows a man's still face for close to two minutes, then in the last few seconds, shows a close-up of the face, with the man smiling.

If that Web site can be believed (I have no idea if it can), Mereana Mordengard Glasgow (also called Mereana Mordegard Glesgorv) has a disturbing history:

"'The full video lasts 2 minutes, and was removed by Youtube after 153 people who viewed the video gouged out their eyes and mailed them to Youtube’s main office in San Bruno. Said people had also committed suicide in various ways. It is not yet known how they managed to mail their eyes after gouging them out. And the cryptic inscription they carve on their forearms has not yet been deciphered.

Youtube will periodically put up the first 20 seconds of the video to quell suspicions, so that people will not go look for the real thing and upload it. The video itself was only viewed by one Youtube staff member, who started screaming after 45 seconds.'"

Sounds like an urban legend to me, especially the send-your-eyeballs-to-YouTube: how do people package and mail their eyeballs if they have no eyes to see what they're doing?).

Anyway, the Mereana Mordengard Glasgow / Mereana Mordegard Glesgorv legend makes for a creepy story, and might make a good scary short story or movie.

Got iMilk? See the Video Here

This video is said to be in response to a similar "iBeer" video. It's short and kind of pointless, but a fun trick anyway. It's amazing the things that people can think of to do with their iPhones and similar devices. Though spending $400 to drink a fake glass of milk (excuse me, iMilk) doesn't make a whole lot of sense...

Big Butter Jesus -Video

Here is the video for Big Butter Jesus, music by Heywood Banks. This version was originally aired on the syndicated Bob & Tom radio show. The Big Butter Jesus apparently is a real stature that is in Ohio, north of Cincinnati, that looks like it is made of butter.

"Big Butter Jesus, oleo Lord" ... kind of makes Notre Dame's "touchdown Jesus" look pretty tame, huh?
