Really?

Yep, and I bought ‘em. Boy were they good.

Great idea for when the kids have a sleepover – as long as you get them before they are gone!

Sorry BK, but while I was having a craving for your (only back for a limited time) Italian Chicken sandwich, I got the combo with the fries – even through I know the onion rings are better, but what the heck – and I’m so disappointed. I need a 3D Camera (like the one shown here, coming soon from DXG and the actual camera shown in the photo in this article) just to explain all the things about them I don’t like.

First, they taste like cardboard. Second, they are never “really hot.” Why, I dunno. Thirdly, they don’t look real – they look fake or something. not sure if it’s the way the odd things fry up around the edges or not, I just know they are a little “odd” looking (and thereby taste bad too).

Google Earth, well known as an incredible tool along with Google Maps (and on my Droid, Google Navigation) – but some people are taking it to a whole new level as art. The image shown here is a portion of an image which was originally a $1MM photograph by artist Andreas Gursky, yet re-created by Florian Freier using Google Earth, photoshop and an inkjet printer.

Florian has even created a video of the process, as shown below, but there are also other efforts, including those previously featured on Fast Company in this gallery of images.

A control center for God? Gizmodo got me laughing early this morning with this great find from ManEggs.

Shall we contemplate it’s simplicity? It’s lack of torture, grief and despair? Perhaps the lack of a “rapture” button and only one for the final countdown? Enjoy more tasty Maneggs at maneggs.com

Craigslist is always a treasure trove for the odd and unusual, today, this post takes the cake:

Help With Drunk Chicken / Won’t Lay

I am a busy Artist with a studio in Lake Worth. A chicken I abducted from key West has recently stopped laying, and eggs are essential to my work. IN SHORT, I need a chicken whisperer. It has also taken to drinking large quantities of stale beer from miller lite can’s torn apart in my frustration, that now litter my back yard. In replying to this add, please use the utmost discretion, as I believe I am in violation of several city ordinances. You can not possibly be detected in your assistance with the issue as my coop is well concealed, surpassed only by, possibly, some old Kentucky boys weed patch. The coop itself only materializes Three to four times monthy, as it is, a left over product of a quantum physics experiment from a bygone era, the future, and present. In your quest for me be aware I drink at Igots, eat at Daves, Brogues and Rum Shack. I have longish red hair, goatee and am quite approachable, except by law enforcement.

Microsoft providing a solution, I mean A LINK STRAIGHT TO GOOGLE, of how to sync Outlook with Gmail? I thought this day would never come, and stumbling around on the Microsoft Office Online website today, here, staring me dead in the face, is proof that the apocalypse is near.

Yes my friends, if this day has come, then the end is certainly near. Continue reading this post…

Breakout was a classic 80s arcade video game that many of us old enough to remember, surely do. These days, it’s not so hard to get your retro fun – with those little controllers you hook to your TV and get all the oldies and such, but when I stumbled across this little game called ‘Cubeout’ from the folks over at Randombyte, I couldn’t help but share it with you!

Enjoy! Continue reading this post…

For Sale or Trade: A 6 Month old baby. Sports Cars preferred – you heard it right. In my ongoing quest to call out the oddities which appear on Craigslist, today a local Florida news station captured the moments on tape when a local resident discovered it.

Craigslist obviously took down the ad, but that doesn’t change the fact that people are crazy. Craigslist continues to be under scrutiny as a trading ground for sexual enslavement and other goof-ball ideas that just aren’t true. Well, unless you are visiting Craigslist Bali or something… Continue reading this post…

Vanna White made a rare appearance at a Wheel of Fortune contestant search in Miami. During an interview snippet with her, ComputerTV learns she’s a girl geek – loves gadgets and especially her Slingbox… which she pointed out is also now available on the iPhone. She is a geek! The crowd goes wild over the Wheel – check it out!

Twitter has reached celebrity status this week with CNN “breaking news” reporting Ashton Kutcher broke the 1 million followers mark on Twitter – then he was on Oprah this week teaching her how to use it – and she has. She has told us about her lunch, her sick dog – and America swoons. Getting over 80,000 followers in the course of 24 hours – Twitter is growing mainstream.

No longer used for just letting people know at what state of undress or where you are – the Denton Texas Police Department has decided to make their arrests available – realtime – on Twitter, complete with Mug Shots. These are amazing to see rolling in – and it’s quite entertaining to guess what the suspect will look like.

With this widespread use of Twitter (which I’m not a user of personally, however do professionally) – are you ready to tell the world what you are doing all the time? It’s like 1984, however we are willingly telling Big Brother what we are doing – all the time.
