I am glad you got to see it lamp. It was something I wanted to see but was busy handing in assignments so I missed it.:sniff:

There will be another showing sometime this year. I'll probably forget about it, just like the first time. rats

Interact with real live cats online.

Awwwww!
The Oregon Humane Society has set up a playroom where you can log in and control robotic toys for real cats to play with. And of course being real cats they sometimes simply ignore them, but the idea is so cool I've been watching for about 30 minutes. Well, if I wanted to play I have my own bundle of fur and claws who is happy to indulge me.

Here you are. Just join the queue if you want to control the toys, the waiting time is also shown. Oh and there's a small live chat box to the side if you want to talk to other catlovers while you wait (or while the cats wait).

Pepto-Bismol Ice Cream.

Extremely gross but fascinating personal account of dude recovering from flesh eating bacterial infection.

Lots of disgusting pictures.

Not safe for lunch.

Seriously, it's cool but don't click on it if you have a weak stomach.

He says as he posts on the lunch hour. ;)

I'm curious, I am. But I just had a slice of pizza. Maybe later!

The amazing thing is that one of the bandages uses a vacuum system just like somebody building a boat and laying down fiberglass or carbon fiber and vacuuforming it. It sucks blood out of the surrounding tissue and towards the wound to aid healing.

Paper lilies and other crafts for the kids.

I used to love doing things like this.

Originally looking for a homemade bird feeder. I made one out of a flat plastic Heinz ketchup bottle. Took the labels off, inserted clear plastic spoons and it looks great.

Oh wow, glatt. That's pretty hard to look at. Can you imagine going through it? I couldn't. Neat though, what they do.

I liked Banana (the NOT a scottish fold but looks like one cat)

I had a hard time looking at it on the screen. Imagine if you were looking down at your own leg and saw that? I'd faint. I don't know how he was taking pictures of it.

No more skin biopsies for me, evah! :eek:

I did enjoy the irony that he had written about a biological weapon utilising this disease just a few months earlier, though.

That was gru-awesome Glatt!

My favorite comment from that page:
"Holy fucking shit. I don’t even… wow. "

I succeeded in interrupting the black cat from his dinner. But all he did was look up and over his shoulder at the toy. And then I think I gave the tabby a shock, as he was sniffing one of the toys when I activated it . He gave a little jump and then just walked away. This is such a cool idea, but Im wondering if they aren't getting a little blase with the whole thing :).

I totally failed. I manged to scroll down to the second pic, but my hand was already in front of my eyes. I couldn't click out fast enough.

The need to adapt this to annoying prisoners: "Pay-per-Poke" would soon address those budget defecits...

:bolt:

Not an artist's rendering, but the real deal from the Cassini spacecraft. The pics taken have been cleaned etc. but the movie was made from the original pics.

I have trouble believing that at 4 years old, she named each of these pieces herself.

Get your pranks polished. Tomorrow is April Fool's day.

Here's one that's a little mean.

who has that kind of free time?

Use my brother's trick, year after year after year. Put a rubber band around the rinsy wandy handle thing in the sink, so when they turn the kitchen sink water on it sprays out the rinsy hose into their face.

I think I'll just put some food coloring in the milk jug. I think we've got the milk in the opaque jugs right now. Hope so.

Another easy one is to switch the plastic envelopes of cereal within the cereal boxes. You know, put the Wheaties in the Cheerios box, etc.

Oooh, oooh...if you have the kind of salt and peppar shakers with the screw on lids (the glass restaurance kinds work best)...you can take a napkin and make a shallow well in the top of the, say, salt shaker. Pour pepper in it. Screw lid over napkin and pull off napkin bits.

Looks like a salt shaker. There's clearly salt in it. WHY IS PEPPER COMING OUT?

My son pulled the ketchup packets under the toilet seat one on me once. He also did the rubberband on the rinser once, too.

sweetness!

Are those teeny giraffes for real? Am I naive? They can't be real. Can they? Are they?

ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Their diet is bonsai leaves? :eyebrow:

:lol: and :blush:

The giraffe cam never moves. I clicked on "me want giraffe" and it said I liked them on facebook and am the 8 hundred thousandth person waiting for a petite giraffe.

Yeah, I'm naive. :D

It would be cool though, wouldn't it? I'd like one too.

Giraffes are such cool animals. I'll believe anything magical about them.

Did you see the commercials?

:p:

I get dumber by the minute.

If you weren't confused before, the speed at which this person talks might be your undoing.

That is an awesome link. Thanks Merc. Brings back memories of my childhood. I miss that kind of illustration, it has so much more mystery and possibility than what passes for illustration these days.

I couldn't believe some of the old ones that I remember from the 60's and early 70's. Great detail. Zoom function. Really awesome.

Yeah there are a couple of books I wish I could remember from then and see if I could find used copies.

Anyone know of any good cheap computer chess games for a MAC? Seems like there are a bunch out there, I have not played on a puter for quite some time.

It's old school, but Battle Chess was great fun back in the day. 3d, and you can rotate/spin/turn/tilt the board to get a better angle, and when you take a piece, a little animation plays wherein the two game pieces physically battle each other. And, I think it's available for Mac.

How free is YOUR state?

http://mercatus.org/freedom-50-states-2011

Ohio? 42nd in your program, number 1 in your hearts.

(I'm not surprised.)

Interesting that CA, NY & NJ are the worst three.

In places where you have a dense population, you have to be mindful of others, and you are less free.

Then what about Alaska and Washington?
