Cat Cartoons

I stumbled over these absolutely wonderful videos of Simon's Cat. If you have cats you will appreciate these small films.







If you liked them, you can find more stuff at the homepage of Simon's Cat.

There will be another video posted by the author tomorrow.

Johann Lippowitz

A friend of mine sent me a link to a mime performance of Johann Lippowitz. I wasn't expecting too much from it, since I am from Odense, where we have Denmark's only mine theater - with one very bad mime.

Johann Lippowitz turned out to be all the YouTube minutes worth, see for yourself:



I liked him so much, I did a little research. You will notice, he has similar facial expressions to Mr. Bean, and he is also played by a British actor and comedian. His real name is David Armand, and you can see his profile on the Internet Movie Database. He also has a MySpace profile.



David Armand has only made three performances as Johann Lippowitz, and the last one is to Natalie Imbruglia's Torn. I found this great video where he performs with Natalie Imbruglia herself:



More information about this last clip, can be found in the Wikipedia article about David Armand.

Mimes do have a place in comedy after all :-)
