`This is what the “dance” looks like when people do it as a group!’

It’s like on of those silly dancing machines, with a bunch of idiots instead of just one.

`A German museum is offering art appreciation lessons to Frankfurt’s sanitation workers, after garbage collectors lugged away a public art sculpture recently and sent it to the incinerator.

Peter Postleb, head of the city’s Clean Frankfurt initiative, claimed responsibility Monday for the case of mistaken identity, after garbage collectors picked up and disposed of what they thought to be construction rubbish.’

`And anti-panti is nothing at all ike a maxi pad. It is not padded. It is not meant to be worn during that special time of the month. It is not institutional. And most importantly, the back of the anti-panti is completely covered with adhesive so it will no budge from where you put it.’

`Introduced as Boraq Sagdiyev from Kazakhstan, he was said to be an immigrant touring America. A film crew was with him, doing some sort of documentary. And he wanted to sing “The Star-Spangled Banner” to show his appreciation, the announcer told the crowd. [..]

“I hope you kill every man, woman and child in Iraq, down to the lizards,” he said [..]

“And may George W. Bush drink the blood of every man, woman and child in Iraq,” he continued [..]

By then, a restless crowd had turned downright nasty.’

Strangely amusing video. It’s a gateway drug, apparently.

`Typically a mecha is a large robotic vehicle. The main characteristics generally include large size 15 to 50 or more feet in height, and generally weighing several tons. They currently exist in the world of science fiction movies, comics, and animes. [..]

The task currently undertaken by Neogentronyx has been to create one of these mecha for practical uses and applications in the real world.’

With some photos. And maybe videos, altho I can’t find any.

This search string pops up hundreds of unprotected webcams around the world. At the moment I’m looking at the foyer of some building somewhere. It’s empty. :)

I think it’s hit the mainstream news today some time, so people might start tightening up their camera security.

Probably not tho. You know what people are like. :)

And! It seems some of the cameras can actually be controlled. I think I just pointed someone’s surveillance camera at a different building.. :)

This site has the largest collection of tsunami photos and videos I’ve seen so far.

Whoever was driving that car probably needed to have a long shower.

Strange little game where you have to use conveyor belts to deliver packages.

Derek Kieper writes .. `What frightens me more about safety belt laws is the intrusion they represent to Americans. Democrats should take notice. Choice is an important aspect of freedom – choice to do as I see fit with my body and being.

Yet, the government has decided that I do not have the choice to drive around without my seat belt. It is my choice what type of safety precautions I take. It is ridiculous to legislate actions that have no immediate effect on other individuals.’

Three months later a different article in another paper..

`Kate Beckinsale has given her daughter’s randy rabbit to the family cleaning lady – because it wouldn’t stop masturbating.

[.. she said] “I don’t think he liked being in a cage and wouldn’t stop masturbating and humping his food bowl. I was sick of inventing different explanations of what that was.

“Also, he was boring and, other than masturbate, he didn’t do anything.”‘

‘A girl of seven found the words “Fuck off and die” on her Disney computer game.

Beki Stewart pointed out the “naughty word” to dad Mark on the opening credits of Monsters, Inc – based on the hit kids’ film. [..]

Mark said: “I am disgusted. This was their big Christmas present. Beki was playing and said, ‘Daddy, there is a swear word.’ I said there couldn’t be because it was a Monsters, Inc game.’

Laughing at things with strange names is the absolute pinnacle of comedy.

Yes it is.

An urban legend with some truth to it:

`As virtual reality simulators assume larger roles in helicopter combat training , programmers have gone to great lengths to increase the realism of the their scenarios, including detailed landscapes and — in the case of the Northern Territory’s Operation Phoenix — herds of kangaroos [..]

Being efficient programmers, they just re-appropriated some code originally used to model infantry detachments reactions under the same stimuli, changed the mapped icon from a soldier to a kangaroo, and increased the figures’ speed of movement.

Eager to demonstrate their flying skills for some visiting American pilots, the hotshot Aussies “buzzed” the virtual kangaroos in low flight during a simulation. The kangaroos scattered, as predicted, and the Americans nodded appreciatively . . . and then did a double-take as the kangaroos reappeared from behind a hill and launched a barrage of stinger missiles at the hapless helicopter. (Apparently the programmers had forgotten the remove “that” part of the infantry coding).’

`Here you will find static and dynamic 2D JPG/PNG images and 3D VRML maps of the Internet. These maps are built off of our database using two different graphing engines [..]’

Convert the first 10,000 digits of pi into music.

This site seems to have all the ones that I’ve seen floating about. Screenshots aswell.

`So, while looking for my passport this morning (which, thankfully, I found, since I’m getting on a plane to go France in a few hours) I came across this receipt I saved from the local video store last Halloween. [..]’

`Remember that you are the pilot and your body is the aircraft. By tilting forward and putting your hands at your side, you can modify your pitch and make progress not just vertically but horizontally as well. As you go down 15,000 feet, you can also go sideways two-thirds of that distance—that’s two miles! Choose your landing zone. You be the boss.’

`Necessity is the mother of invention. The father is unknown.’

`Police have charged a man with filing a false police report after he claimed someone tried to carve a slur on his forehead.

There was one little problem with 22-year-old Floyd Elliot’s story: The superficial wound was backward, as if it were made while looking into a mirror.’

`This little dragon appears to be looking at you. But if you rotate the base this way or that the dragon’s head appears to turn the other way…

Or if you stand the dragon on a shelf and walk about, the dragon’s head follows you around the room. And yet it is simply a sheet of paper, cut and folded in a certain way. How does it work?’

With video and plans.

`Police are looking for two women they say sexually assaulted a man with a pair of cooking tongs in a drug-related attack.

Savannah-Chatham Metropolitan police say the victim, a 25-year-old man, awoke Saturday morning with a metal object protruding from his body.

The victim, who police say was using cocaine at the time, told police he does not remember much of what happened.’
