Sometimes, when you’ve got a what’s leaning toward heavier things in your head, it’s easier to take the focus away from them by looking at silly things.  I have an appointment today that’s been on my mind for a while.  My plumbing is just a little screwy, and I’m having it checked out. So, as [...]

I’m trying something out.. I’d like to be able to host my own videos, instead of pulling from YouTube or other places like that.  So I found a plugin that might be able to help.  I’m testing it now, so if this works, we’ll call it a success, and maybe I’ll be able to host [...]

Holy CRAP!  These guys change SO MUCH from day to day!  All of a sudden, several have changed color, and the one that was already kind of froggy has hit all new frog status.  It’s breathing air and climbing the glass!  I couldn’t find him last night in the water, and kind of panicked, until [...]

I’d been paying attention to some of the biggest tadpoles because they’re easiest to see, and watch the changes in, but last night, one of the smaller ones shocked me.  I saw a strange color at the bottom of the tank, and when I went in for a close look, I saw a tiny green [...]

I was reading today about the first commercially available prosthetic "bionic" hand.  It’s one some engineering awards in the UK.  I’m just amazed by the range of ability this thing has. i-Limb Website The more I read about it, the more I was amazed.  This thing, that looks more and more like a real human [...]

This is a montage of survived stunts in Grand Theft Auto 4.  For those who’ve played it, you will be floored by some of this stuff, and how the dude is able to pull it off.  For those of you who haven’t played it, it may be cool as just a bunch of flippy cars [...]

I’ve been thinking about it for a while now, but Sunday, I finally decided to do it.  I’ve thought that it’s pretty ridiculous for me to have two couches in my apartment, since I only ever need one.  I can’t remember the last time I ever had more than 2 other people in my place [...]
