uniCornify the Web! That's right. Unicorns and rainbows when you feel the web is icky or frustrating. Here's what
Metafilter could look like. If you want you can add their java snippet to your browser bar and cornify anything!

Atmospheric Optics.
Rainbows,
in spray,
of moonlight,
in reflective paint,
without sky,
with spokes,
twinned,
reflected,
in clouds,
in the fog, more.
Halos,
horizon distortion,
green flashes,
pillars,
near-contrails.
Surface and volume shadows.
Waves atop the atmosphere.
Mysteries.
Picture of the Day.
Via.
Previously. Still no unicorns.

Rainbow Innuendo Episode Evidentially Rainbow was a children's show in Britain (Canada?) in the Late 70's - early 80's. (I never heard of it till now here in Ohio.) Anyway, wether this went on the air or whether it was just a gag reel for the cast and crew... I doubt anyone will know. I went out and found the full 16MB MPEG version for downloading, because I love ya. Must be seen to believed. Possibly NSFW. Maybe.
Can't believe your ears/eyes? Want to see the script?
Here ya go.

Those of you old enough to remember watching sporting events in the late 70's and early 80's may remeber a gentleman with a rainbow colored wig who enjoyed holding up a sign reading JOHN 3:16. That gentleman was named
Rollen Stewart and while he was ubiquitous for a time, he came to sad and bizarre end. His rise and fall detailed in
this article and a
short movie is an interesting cautionary tale about the nature of celebrity in a media saturated world.

You may have heard of the
Dark Side of the Rainbow, the synching of
Pink Floyd's The Dark Side of the Moon with The Wizard of Oz. But this isn't the only mystery that surrounds the band. The
Publius Enigma is the story of an anonymous Usenet
poster connected to the band in some way that claimed that The Division Bell album held a very tangible and real prize. Was it a cosmic mystery of an esoteric nature or just a gimmick to sell records?
