Leo just IM’ed me about this new RV. He saw it on Top Gear, and the reason he was telling me about it is they incorporate my idea of a faucet that has an LED inside that changes color based on the temperature – red for hot, blue for cold and some shade of [...]

Thanks to Kevin who just introduced me to The FuMP – The Funny Music Project.  Basically it is a collection of daily funny songs, each released under creative commons.  I listed to a couple of songs and found this one particularly funny:

My reasoning for finding this particularly funny is every [...]

I love optical illusions.  First of all, they are cool, secondly the good ones teach us something about the way our eyes and brains work.  One of the neet things about the internet is that it makes it really easy to share animated optical illusions.  Check this out out:

My dad just sent me this video of Lorenzo : the Flying FrenchMan. . .

Boarder patrol claims they can boot up your laptop and search it. Even if you comply and they don’t find anything, they can still detain your laptop for further searching. [...]

Wait, wait, don’t tell me, I am in the middle of Atlas Shrugged. At 645,000 words and 1168 pages it is the 15th longest novel of all time, just longer then War and Peace. So it is taking me a little while to get through it.
It has been enjoyable so far. I [...]

So I was leaving the grocery store last night when a Girl Scout asked me “Would you like to buy some Girl Scout Cookies?”  I bought a box, but I also offered her some advice on selling.  While, I have not used these techniques to sell cookies directly, I suspect they might would.  I thought [...]
