Rubes So we've talked a little about Rube Goldberg [flash] and his cartoons which have inspired the young, and older, the French, and the Japanese. They've even been used in advertising, but I think this one most exemplifies Rube's style.
It is a good one. Couldn't identify the beer though. Looked like a pilsner bottle, but not pilsner urquell.
Giving us a preview before actually setting it off may increase the suspense, but I found myself getting a bit impatient watching the beer-pouring one. Also, a major part of the joy for me is not knowing what's coming up next and simply going for the ride.

A very nice set of links.

Quebecois, I think.
