• Commented on Virginia, the Blind Dog
  It's wonderful to hear about the adaptability of dogs. My aussie, Zephyr, was attacked by a pack of dogs last Monday, and ended joining the "tripod club" on Tuesday. By the time I picked him up after the operation, he...
• Commented on In praise of Kitchen Aid's customer service -- UPDATED
  @4 We also struggled with a misaligned, miscast pasta making attachment, although struggled may be too strong a word. After a couple of interactions with the slightly wonky piece, a short phone call to Kitchen Aid resulted in a replacement...

• Commented on Roll-top kids' chair
  It does work like one of those old-time desks. It also works like one of those new-fangled bodega security gates, youngster. I like it a lot. Storage for kids, there can't be too much of. A little square of velcro...
• Commented on Long-exposure shots in St Petersburg, Russia turn people into ghosts
  I think this is what we really look like in a "universe as a big holographic crystal" sense....
• Commented on Death of the sitcom frees up 2,000 Wikipedias worth of cognitive capacity
  Once, as a lad, I realized that time spent watching television could be measured in hours per viewer per day, and with a little more math, that amount could be translated to human lifetimes in wasted hours. That 200 billion...
• Commented on The reality of depending on "1000 True Fans"
  Starcadia brings up the point that stood out, for its absence, in the article. Some fans are lost and some are gained. I don't really see that as a catch-22. Grow and change as an artist, following your own inspiration,...
• Commented on Creepily lifelike CGI woman
  Not so sure this is quite cgi as in a rendered mesh with textures. She looks like layered and morphed pieces of photos stacked together....
• Commented on Comparing food products with their package photos
  What stood out for me was the 3 panel format which read a lot like a depressing comic strip with a two panel set up and a one panel anti-punchline at the end. They feel a little like real world...
• Commented on Scotland Yard wants DNA samples from 5-year-olds in case they grow up to be criminals; Oyster card records to become part of "war on terror"
  This looks like a "Meiers Gambit". Suggest something so outrageous that people will fall in line for any less chilling alternative....
• Commented on $31 million worth of lost valuables on the TSA's watch
  Threatening notes in your luggage for inspectors is some sort of crime, I think. And a Goatse poster is definitely threatening....
• Commented on Family busts "mailbox baseball" team after high-speed chase
  You can't see it but I am rolling my eyes. Take a effin picture guys. High speed chases can end in far worse than a smashed mailbox. If you can't get a clear picture of the perps and a plate...

  Another problem is that kimchi is stinky....
• Commented on Ashley Wood's "Bertie" Robot Sculpture
  It has always been a fantasy of mine to have something I made show up on Boingboing! This is the figure of Ashley Wood's Bertie that Bigshot Toyworks is producing. Ashley has a lot of info about the project on...
