Darwinian view of Legos

If you have ever wondered exactly where Lego’s come from, you need not look any further than this:
“What’s all this about evolution? Bah! God said “Let there be Legos” and there was Legos. And God saw that the Legos were good.”
I think that pretty much sums it all up - don’t you?

In the air

My philosophy (if you want to call it that) has always been that rumors should be looked at in mass and not just as one voice. This philosophy has served me pretty well over the years. But today I think I may break with my normal way of thinking and and accept this rumor [...]

Forceful candy

Who can resist candy like this? I just love these! They are 8.5″ of sugary goodness that you can use to have lightsaber duels. These are definitely something that I need to get. They come 12 to a box - I think that means that they could at least last for six duels. I [...]

A close call

Ever since the announcement that Starbuck’s will be closing 600+ stores over the next year, I have been wondering which of my local haunts will be getting the ax. Today I saw my answer - almost none of them (Note: the Huffington on the list each line starts with the store number and name - [...]

Hayden the Hero

I have been watching Heroes since the first episode and I just love it. I especially love the Cheerleader (Hayden Panettiere), she is smart, adorable and sexy all at the same time (something you almost never find). Her character has singlehandedly given cheerleaders a better reputation. And she takes getting mutilated so darn well, that [...]

Guest Appearance by…

For the next little bit I will be guest blogging for Lori over at MyWoodenSpoon.com while she is away at BlogHer Conference (hell yeah I am jealous - I wanted to go this year - oh well). Yes it is a recipe blog and yes I can cook enough to come up with a recipe [...]

Costume of Wonder

The first thing that came to my mind after reading about the “Knitted Wonder Woman Costume” was of an old lady knitting something slightly resembling what Wonder Woman might wear if she ever reached 80+ years old. I know, I know knitting has come a long way, but I still can’t seem to let [...]

Magical blue fluid

It seems like a perfectly reasonable assumption to think that any normal adult would think twice before consuming the viscous, blue fluid that can be located in the Magic 8 Ball. Apparently though, that is not the case. It has become known that two seemingly reasonable human beings took it upon themselves to test the [...]

A little batty

A teenager found a bat in her bra. I have heard of bats in the belfry, but I have never heard of this. The first thing I thought of after reading about this was “how could you not know” and then I thought “maybe it is like having a dryer sheet stuck in your shirt” [...]

Because there is nothing good on the Internet today…

Okay, there is probably something good out there today. I just don’t want to be bothered to find it.
And now for your viewing pleasure - a little Techno Chicken.
