Here’s a great little video which has a Sales Guy vs. a web dude. I love how he’s playing Halo throughout it all anyway. Oh, and the way the icons are on the desktop is priceless.
It can’t be done you say?! Well, if you freeze it, then yes, you can indeed climb it. Anyway, that’s kinda crazy, I agree with the guys at Odidty Central, you gotta be really crazy to want to climb a frozen waterfall. They make for some really damn pretty pictures though.
I mean, look at that, it’s beautiful, I could probably spend all day moving around taking pictures there!
I’m sure there’s some underwire structure to these plant sculptures, but regardless they are pretty neat. I really like the fountain hand one above, but the crying person, that’s my favorite i think:
I like the purple flowers, and the way it’s vertical on the wall, it’s pretty cool, and nice looking. I wish i knew what type of plants they used, and more importantly, where this is, cause I want to visit.
This is a very nice, fun, interesting, and overall destructive little interactive flash Meteor Impact Calculator.
I’ve spent the better part of an hour making various sizes, and speeds, and angles, and types of rock to see what happens, and, so far in all of them, I am dead. Oh well, the world’s gonna end anyway, at least I’ll have a front row seat!
Here’s an example i went through:
3300m wide, 27 degree angle, 30km/s, rock hitting rock.
That’s a decent sized crater, 770meters deep, and a 9 on the Richter scale, not bad i’d say.
Deeper then The Empire State Building though, that’s tough.
I’d wager that I probably wouldn’t have survived, i mean, I’m mostly covered in 3rd degree burns and whatnot. Oh well, at least it only happens ever 18 million years or so.
I don’t eat cake much, unless its plain white, with nothing in it, and little/no frosting, but, i do recognize the work that goes into these cakes made in Russia. Look at the detail in the Map one. That’s insane!
Well, I enjoyed Indiana Jones and The Kingdom of The Crystal Skull, some other people didn’t apparently. Mostly the writer of this abridged script. I’ll admit, its pretty funny, and this is my favorite part:
KAREN ALLEN
Cate wants to return the Crystal MacGuffin to the ancient City of Gold.
HARRISON FORD
City of Gold? Isn’t that what Nicolas Cage was looking for in National Treasure 2? Are we seriously getting the plot for our shitty sequel to Indiana Jones by ripping off the plot of a shitty sequel to a shitty knock-off of Indiana Jones? I feel like that should unravel the space-time continuum or something.
National Treasure 2 doesn’t hold a candle to National Treasure, which in turn doesnt hold a candle to Indiana Jones (1, or 3(2 is worse then 4)). But anyway, just thought you’d like that.
equals sooo much fun!
Well, it seems that there are a whole bunch of people who don’t like Google’s new favicon that they switched to last week. John Michael Boling set up an internet petition to bring back Google’s old one.
Turns out that he really didn’t have to go through all that trouble, cause Google says on their Blog that they want your ideas. And they even let you submit them! You have till June 20, 2008, so get to it!
Apparently, I have an I.Q. of 108 after taking the A.E.C Offical I.Q. Test, for 2004-2005. Not bad, that’s average apparently. I don’t know. It was a 20 minute timed test asking various math, matching, and geometry problems. I was able to get all the geometry ones, those were easy. The math ones were alright, and the “which one is different” was simple.
The Dice problem was the hardest one i thought. I spent a good five minutes on that one, and finally guessed in the end. I’m not gonna put what I guessed, cause I don’t know if its right, and dont want to spoil it for you.
I like how it doesnt give the correct answers, this way you can’t cheat and get a better I.Q. Then again, this is the internet, so you could probably find all these answers pretty easy anyway.
Oh well, I enjoyed it.
