- AT&T’s latest ad shows that they think warrantless wiretapping is funny. From Consumerist:
According to AT&T, Ms. Suspicious “has nothing to hide,” so she certainly won’t mind when AT&T and their traitorous telecom buddies trash the Constitution and violate her right to privacy!
- Jay-Z opens up his headlining set at Glastonbury with Oasis’s Wonderwall following comments from Noel Gallagher that hip hop “doesn’t belong” at the festival. Buuuuuuuurn.

- Where the hell is Matt? is not my latest Where’s Waldo attempt, but something better:
Matthew Harding spent 14 months visiting 42 countries in order to produce “Where the Hell is Matt?”, a four-and-a-half minute video featuring Harding (and anyone else he could rope into it) doing an incredibly silly, high-energy dance in some of the most breathtaking scenery around the world. This may be the best four minutes and twenty-eight seconds of your week.

- LeRoi Moore, saxophonist from the Dave Matthews Band, was injured in an ATV accident on his farm in Virginia on Monday. He was initially listed as in serious condition at a Virginia hospital, but has since been upgraded to fair. Jeff Coffin, the double-sax playing troubadour from Bela Fleck and the Flecktones will fill in indefinitely while LeRoi recoops. This marks the first time since 1993 that the band has performed a tour without one of the five founding members. Looking forward to seeing you back, Roi! Send eCards via the band’s site.
