Noteboek

(Not a typo: it's Dutch.)

A Dutch artist has made a video of her and her notebook that you won't want to miss.

Pay Toilets in Space

So it seems like the governments on the ground are getting antsy about other nations' astronauts using their stuff, and have started charging for the use of toilets, among other things.

Interesting that the shift from sharing everything in common to paying for use was initiated by the (hopefully ex-)commies....

Can't even trust his own brother

WOBURN - The half brother of Dane Cook has been ordered held on $1 million bail on charges alleging he stole millions of dollars from the comedian.

(More)


The real crime here, of course, is that Dane Cook had millions of dollars in the first place.

Collecting from the Bereaved

Wow. This is just so, so wrong. (And, yeah, linking to the NYT feels wrong, too.)

It's kind of quiet around here...

I am quite surprised that Rob didn't have anything to post during the political season or that George didn't have some amusing story. I've mostly been over on Facbook taunting liberals and making a complete jackass of myself. That's to be expected, I guess.

I don't have a whole lot of time on my hands as I've been working, running, and not much else -- Manuela will affirm that, in fact, I don't really do much anyway. All my vacation days are gone so I will be in the office Black Friday, Christmas Eve, the day after Christmas and every other day the stock market is open. It's ok, it'll be quiet and I have a lot of paperwork to do.

That's all for now.

Something a bid odd about these mascots?

Knife amnesty results

British police conducting a knife amnesty (sic) program were quite surprised at one item. Lacking the cultural sensitivity of us Americans, they overreacted and probably offended a population that you really, really shouldn't.

Geek points to anyone who can name the weapon (and spell it correctly). Extra geek points for cartoon links.

(PS: "Knife amnesty"? WTF? Did the NRA make this up? What's next, baseball-bat -- I mean, cricket-bat -- amnesties?)

The only Red Sox related item you'll ever see me post...

This is one of my co-workers' kids.



Not to mention he's also a recipient of a lot the Jimmy Fund has to offer. If you met this kid in person you'd immediately be taken over by his engaging personality.

A picture is worth 1,000 words or pounds or donuts...

Now THIS is pretty cool
