Pictures of ever-so-tiny things.
I think this picture of velcro should have done better than a simple honorable mention.

Jonesin' for Six Feet Under?
[HBO has] struck an exclusive two-year overall pact that calls for [Alan] Ball to develop series for the paybox. First up is a drama based on Charlaine Harris' "Southern Vampire" series of bestselling novels.
Project is set in a world where vampires and humans co-exist after the development of synthetic blood. First book, "Dead Until Dark," revolves around a waitress in rural Louisiana who meets the man of her dreams only to find out he's a vampire with a bad reputation.

Oh, wow. They're on sale.
Following up on my post yesterday about those adorable little racist twin singers, Lynx & Lamb, I somehow ran across this delightful site.
I saw the twins wearing these Happy Hitler girly t's in one story about them.

My buddy, Timmy, sent this around to a bunch of us at work.

Bradley's response to Timmy:
I will control you like this timmy, some day.
you will bend to my whims, or at least, walk in a pretzel shape.

Fake houses in London.
The route of the [underground railway] between Paddington and Bayswater necessitated the demolition of 23 and 24 Leinster Gardens, situated on a long, upmarket terrace of five story houses, and it was decided to build a 5ft-thick facade which matched the houses either side of the break.
Facade and dummy houses at 23-24 Leinster Gardens, Paddington, London W2 above the Metropolitan and District Line
(Thank you, Bradley!)

And people wonder why I'm phobic about grown people in costumes.
...Upon returning to his spot a day after his arrest, [Mr. Harper] conceded that things are tense these days among the characters, who form cliques and alliances to defend their turf and make money. Mr. Harper, for example, says his Elmo is a foe of Batman and Superman, but in cahoots with Mr. Incredible, SpongeBob SquarePants and at least one of the half-dozen Spider-Men who prowl the street.
Members of Elmo's clique often pose in pictures together and split tips when the dollars are flowing. Because many of the costumes have no pockets, wads of cash are often visibly clenched in characters' hands. But as a Saturday stroll down the boulevard showed, other characters are alone and adrift, often wearing ragged costumes and seeming to horn in on others' turf.

Robots r kewl.
Watch this video. SO fun.
(FYI - if this is a true vision of the future, I'm going to trip over robots a lot. I can barely avoid my cat when she gets underfoot.)

From the mouths of (13 year-old racist) babes.
"We're proud of being white, we want to keep being white," said Lynx. "We want our people to stay white … we don't want to just be, you know, a big muddle. We just want to preserve our race."

The Turkish remake of ET.
In the Turkish version, the alien is attacked by a strike force made up of an angry mob of peasants, soldiers dressed as storm troopers, police and firefighters. The children assault the mob right back with gas grenades and marbles. A few of them put on party hats to enhance their combat abilities. Then they steal a cart from an old man by, and I’m not making this up, patiently waiting for him to die on his feet from old age. I repeat: not making this up.

p.s. No offense, Alper. I'd laugh no matter what culture was doing this...
