Audio Atrocities

Audio Atrocities is a website devoted to absolutely horrid voice acting in video games. Most of these appear to be poor engrish translations of Japanese titles. If that wasn't bad enough, they sound like they're read by your local community college's acting troupe. Bad news.

Expedited passport & visa services

Adrienne Wilson over at Gadling has a tip for the traveler in need of a password or visa ASAP. Being somewhat of a procrastinator myself, I had to pay for rush processing of my passport when I first traveled abroad. Fortunately for me, I had access to a passport office.

I haven't given these guys a try since I already have what I need, but you may find them handy in a pinch.
