That's a huge...


Came across quite a truck of an audio system (if that makes sense). I couldn't find much other info on this thing except from what I can see in the pictures. It looks like its running nine(9) 10inch MOFO-10 subwoofers with eleven(11) amps. Hard telling what kind of amps from the pictures but they would have to be enough to put 1500watts rms to each sub. I would like to see the size of that things alternator to give it all that power.

Out the way


So you like to drive fast? Or maybe just hate getting stuck behind a person driving 50mph in a 65mph zone. Their is a solution for that. A man has been marketing a big sticker that goes across the top of your windshield that apparently gives the person in front of you a ceartin message. Now I won't spoil it for you and tell you what it says, find out for yourself.

Freedom of Speech



I came across an interesting blog post today about the freedom of speech. To make a long story short read the article because I don't want to explain. More info here.
***UPDATE*** (6/28) The case has been decided and apparently according to wikipedia's site, Because schools may take steps to safeguard those entrusted to their care from speech that can reasonably be regarded as encouraging illegal drug use, the school officials in this case did not violate the First Amendment by confiscating the pro-drug banner and suspending Frederick.
So really, the sign should have looked like this...

The star bomb



There is a really big star (100-150 times the size of our sun) that is going to explode soon, also known as a supernova. The name of the star is Eta Carinae. Their is a small chance it could shoot matter towards earth and kill everything on our planet. Just thought I would pass that along in case their was something important you had to do soon.

Geauga Lake

Went to Geagua Lake for Fathers Day this past weekend with Miranda. Surprisingly, it was not at all crowded. Every ride had only a 5 minute wait or less. Also swam for a little while in the wave pool at wild water kingdom which is the water park portion of Geagua Lake. All in all it was a really, really great time. You can get discount tickets from Drug Mart for $23 which is a pretty good deal if your interested in ever going.

Taxodermy, or is it












Instructables has a page on the taxodermy of mice. Although, Is this even right?



On another note, the CAVS first trip EVER to the NBA Finals and they lose 4 in a row.

And now for a riddle...

I turn polar bears white
And I will make you cry.
I make guys have to pee.
And girls comb their hair.
I make celebrities look stupid.
And normal people look like celebrities.
I turn pancakes brown.
And make your champane bubble.
If you sqeeze me, I'll pop.
If you look at me, you'll pop.
Can you guess the riddle?

Take my picture down

It's hard to get your picture off Google Street View. A man caught on camera by the google street view camera had a hard time getting his picture taken down. Read the article for the details.

Pan's Labyrinth and Pink Floyd Goodness

OK, so I finally saw Pan's Labyrinth yesterday night with Jesse J and Miranda, and holy crap! Definitely an awesome movie! It had this totally surreal feel going on the whole time, and I was diggin' it! I think leaving it in Spanish and adding the English subtitles made it better than if they had tried to dub it into English. Definitely not a kid's movie though--the violence in that movie was kinda extreme! Definitely worth a look though, for all who haven't seen it yet. On another note, yesterday I spoke with Eroc, the lead singer/bass player for Wish You Were Here (the best Pink Floyd tribute band around today) and he wants me to help with more promo stuff for their upcoming shows. So if anyone is interested, I will be getting some posters, flyers, and handbills soon--just let me know if you want some, or know anyone I should hook up with some stuff. Trust me, these guys rock- just ask Kris or Jesse J--they've both been to a few shows and can attest to WYWH's rocking-ness (that's right, I created a new word.)

Glowstringing

So I've started learning how to glowstring recently, and it's definitely a lot of fun. It's pretty simple to start doing--you just tie a shoestring to a glowstick in a loop, tie another one for our other hand, and just start swinging. But without practice you'll end up hitting yourself and tangling the strings up more often than doing anything remotely cool looking. Below are some links to glowstringing-related sites, as well as an awesome poi (fire spinning) site. Enjoy.

Loch Ness

An amateur scientist has captured the Loch Ness Monster on tape recently. They are saying it's the best video recording of Nessie yet. Looks like the top of a submarine to me but who knows.
