Distractions

• The only blog operating within New Orleans after Katrina. Inspiring and intriguing.
  
• Turning an optical illusion into a profitable business (turning, get it?)
• A ad campaign with a nun holding a condom. Who would object to that?
• Rent a Rodent
• Q: Why did the surrealist cross the road? A: Orange.
• Doing the Star Trek whoosh door one better.
• "In the 69 years that the pitch has been dripping no-one has ever seen the drop fall."
• Bored teenagers. Unprotected McDonald's sign. A few power tools. Recipe for minor annoyance.
• Bored geeks. Large block of sodium. Water source. Recipe for large explosions.
• Virtual mugging. Be careful folks, it's a jungle in there and the geeks are running the show.
• Online karaoke - please practice before you go out in public.
• Animated film and song about Atlanta's gas situation.
• Robots in unexpected places.
• Finally those MIT guys come up with a useful invention. Carbonated ice cream. Sure beats those highly efficient photocells they've been working on for like ... ever.
• Patent illustrations from the 1920s. People were really into radiator caps.
• All of the strangest eBay auctions collected in a convenient blog format.
• Everyone needs a pet with a built-in tuxedo. Herring not included.
• Suprisingly, digging through the earth won't send you to China. At least not from my house.
• Surviving "unplanned" free-fall. As Steve McQueen said in The Magnificent Seven, "So far, so good."
• Finally, a chess game that's good for my ego.
• When they start going for boats, we're in trouble.
