Kermit the Frog and Miss Piggy hit back at Fox News during a UK press conference following the London Premiere of their new film. Fox had publically criticized the film for supposedly pushing a 'dangerous liberal agenda' at kids. Kermit mocks their blatant and pointless fear mongering before Miss Piggy offers her own opinion on Fox News. Camera and Post by Russell Nelson

A helpful reminder, with music. Made to commemorate the relaunch of my portfolio and blog at http://bombsfall.com This was done with After Effects and Soundforge over the course of a couple of days. I got to experiment with new styles and new techniques. I'm reasonably happy with how it turned out. 10 points to those who can identify the song the snake is playing on the xylophone. There's a very good chance some of these guys will end up on prints in the very near future. Stay tuned.

@paleofuture: Give a man a SOPA, and you'll censor us for a day; teach a man to SOPA, and you'll choke our economy with the kicked in teeth of martyrs.

SOPA and PIPA are two examples of recent legislation that is lethal to the internet as we know it. The internet rose up and is on its way to successfully fighting them off, but we need to stay vigilant. The only way to prevent legislation like this from being passed in the future is to call your Congressmen and tell them. Make it clear that you don't support SOPA, you don't support PIPA, and that you won't support future legislation that damages the stability of the internet.
