Look what I got for Christmas – The Lord of the Rings Pez Gift Set!

You know you’re jealous – and you should be!

This recently released limited edition Lord of the Rings Pez Gift Set comes with 8 themed dispensers and 12 rolls of candy. The dispensers are Bilbo Baggins, Frodo Baggins, Samwise Gamgee, Gandalf, Aragorn, Legolas, Gimli, and Gollum.

Back in September a story caught fire about a theater professor named James Miller at the University of Wisconsin–Stout who was threatened with criminal charges after intellectually challenged campus police removed a completely harmless Firefly poster for referring to killing, despite the fact that the poster actually stood for being fair and honorable.

The university stood behind the decision, and quite the battle unfolded as the professor sought his rightful freedom of speech. Then FIRE (Foundation for Individual Rights in Education) got involved and contacted the university about stopping this nonsense, with no success, and so, being Firefly fans themselves, they took to the internet.

A video of the story and how it unfolded has now been released by FIRE which features Mr. Neil Gaiman. You can check out how things turned out here below.

The MP3 album deal of the day over at Amazon today is Queen‘s Greatest Hits II for only $3.99.

This hits album contains 17 great tunes from the classic rock band’s extensive back catalog. Since this is the second volume, songs like “Bohemian Rhapsody” and “We Will Rock You” aren’t on this one (that’s on Greatest Hits I), but you will get great tunes like “A Kind Of Magic,” “Under Pressure” (featuring David Bowie), “Who Wants To Live Forever,” “The Show Must Go On,” and “Radio Ga Ga,” all of which make the $4 price a steal for this album.

If you’d like a physical copy of Greatest Hits II, the CD is available for only $9.32. There’s also a 2-CD set, Queen: Greatest Hits I & II, that’s only $9.60.
