They had to import snow. To Anchorage, Alaska. In March.

Just ponder that for a sec.

Driving home from dinner tonight on a 4-lane city street, I get behind a guy going 30 in a 35 mph zone. So, I pull into the left lane and start to go around him. He accelerates (like any douchenozzle would) to try and prevent me from getting back over to make the intersection. I accelerate and get back into the lane I was originally in, ahead of him, but am now going 45 and he's right on my rear bumper. Then, he puts his brights on and leaves them on like a complete jack-off, still tailing me.

Seriously, what is wrong with people?? Experiences like that remind me how disappointed I am that mutant superpowers aren't real and I don't actually have laser heat vision with which to melt his tires.

Ooooh!

Ooooh!

Are you tired of calendars changing from year to year?


Are you tired of calendars changing from year to year? One year, Halloween is on a Saturday, but the next year it's on a Tuesday? Why does that make any sense? Here's a calendar that makes sense: The 10x7 Calendar, where every month is the same and work weeks are only three days long!

Finally got to assemble the LEGO Imperial Hotel (I hear it's Darth Vader's favorite vacation resort) that I got as a holiday gift. It's a fun build. Some things get a little monotonous (e.g., the vertical window segments), but it uses some really clever construction techniques. The final result is quite handsome, too, if you're into the Architecture line.

As modern video games become more and more demanding in terms of hardware, no wonder getting the cutting edge component parts is a pressing problem. Recently, dueling LEGO builders produced a couple of brilliant microchips, and now it’s high time to get a…
