I haven't figured out how to (if I can) move the old posts over, but I have given up on this busted blogger. I have found something much MUCH better.

The paparazzi has been exploiting this slimming feature and other HP image effects for months on their photos of Kate Moss (Cocaine Residue Effect), Pete Doherty (Random Syringe Effect), and Kate Bosworth (Nipple Slip Effect).

This is a real thing... though the picture is faked.

As if the "product that would change the world" hasn't had enough problems (like a $5000 price tag), today Segway announced that all 23,500 of it's scooters sold to date are being recalled, because they "Unexpectedly reverse torque and can cause the rider to fall"

This guy "selectively cleans" dirt off walls to form graffiti. The legality of it is in question... the city still has to pay money to remove the graffiti, but shouldn't it have done that anyway to remove the dirt?

Am just checking in with the good ol' blog. Katie's group name etymology is interesting: whatever website that is that said Zeus "came upon" Leda in the form of a swan was being delicate. Or maybe "came upon" was meant literally. Either way, it was pretty embarrasing to see an original work of art from ancient Greece depicting this mythological sexual encounter while on vacation with my family, only to have Eddie Marritz point it out and take a close up picture of it. Honestly. This was what the Marritz family saw: http://www.vroma.org/images/mcmanus_images/leda.jpg And don't forget the dirty Yeats poem detailing the same encounter: http://www.online-literature.com/yeats/865/ I think my name takes the embarrasment cake. (To mix metaphors.)

This guy made a rubber band gun out of lego that shoots at 11 rounds per second.
