US-Sino Currency Rap Battle by Next Media Animation

Remember the guys who did those funny animated videos of Tiger Woods, Late Night battle, and many others... They did it again.

"The G20 is getting underway in South Korea. High on the agenda is the brewing currency battle between China and the United States. Need a primer on the issues? Check out our US-Sino Currency Rap Battle, featuring Chinese president Hu Jintao and American president Barack Obama. China has mad stacks of US Treasury debt and fears America will inflate its way out the hole by weakening the greenback further. The US, on the other hand, says China is keeping its currency artificially undervalued to protect its exports.It's a battle for the ages. And everything you need to know about US-Sino trade relations can be learned right here." - Next Media Animation.

I don't know If I will learn anything, but I'm sure I was laughing the whole time. =D

Community - Halloween Episode

I love Community. It's one of few shows that I still catch it weekly. There are so many geek reference in a 30-minute show. It's so good. My favorite episode is 'Modern Warfare' from last season. So many references to video games and gun action movies. Everyone should watch it.
