Magic Eye

Believe it or not, the image below is one of those "magic eye" images. If you manage to see it, you'll get a funny little joke inside.

In case you have no idea what a magic eye image is: stare at the image as if you are looking through it. Try to bring the distinct images each of your eyes is picking up together to form a single image.

GIANT Discovery

In the northern region of India, in a region called the Empty Quarter, a National Geographic Team (India Division), with the support of the Indian Army, uncovered the skeletal remains of a giant human.

Click the photo below to see it full size, and note the size of the two men standing in the picture.

More photos here.

The exploration team also found tablets with inscriptions describing a Godlike race of people of phenomenal size created to bring order among us since we were always fighting with each other.

One other note: this image was an entry in a Photoshop contest at Worth1000.com. It was created by altering an actual photo of a Cornell University excavation of a mastodon skeleton.

But it would be great if it were true, wouldn't it? Here is the link to the entry at worth1000.

Don't Sit Here

Did you know there is a war on sitting? Neither did I. Who could possibly care about this?

Well, if this site is any indication, a lot of people. There are literally hundreds of examples of sitter-unfriendly structures there. If you don't want to wait hours for your page to load, some highlights are below. Click to view full size:
















Danica McKellar - Cute AND Smart

Remember Winnie Cooper on The Wonder Years? Turns out that as us nerds grew up, so did she... into a nerd. But a hot nerd.

And even better, she has a B.S. in Mathematics from UCLA. I have a B.S. in Mathematics from UCSB -- wonder if I have an in? Ha. Probably not. As a kid growing up watching the show, I don't have to tell you I had a boy crush on Winnie Cooper.

Here she is now:

I actually brushed by her a few years ago outside a restaurant in Santa Monica. I can confirm she was quite stunning.

And she writes, too:

Ok, so she's kind of playing up the girlie thing, but who cares. She's cute, she's smart... she's my woman of the day today.

Wee wunt 2 gradjuat

In Fort Worth, 613 seniors did not pass the TAKS (Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills) exam. Consequently, they won't be graduating. About a dozen students decided to protest the fact that non-graduating seniors will not be allowed to walk in the graduation ceremony. I don't know what to say to this except what...

Ok, so the story itself isn't that interesting, but there are two things here that you will get a kick out of. First, this quote from the story:

Crystal Martinez complained that while she finished at the top of her class with a 3.5 grade point average, she is now blocked from graduation by failing the TAKS test.

3.5 is the "top of her class"? And how do you get a 3.5 GPA and fail a basic skills test?

And here is the capper. A photo from the protest. Read carefully what is written on the sign.

The Stuff of Nightmares

Prepare to be horrified. These are the ghastliest things I have ever seen.

I don't know what these are or where they came from -- if someone knows, please leave a comment.











Sweet dreams!
