Commented on All-in-one ectoplasm measurement device
This is particularly amusing after the lung flute post. Perhaps there is a connection?...

Commented on Thrashing, mad, metal: the art of Double Fine's <em>Brütal Legend</em>
This game is a lot of fun to watch, and I was constantly delighted by it. Unfortunately, the BF finished it in a week, which was disappointing. Still, as entertainment, we got something like 30 hours out of it, which...

Commented on Brazillian crime-TV host ordered executions to boost ratings, say cops
So weird. I just listened to a sci fi podcast that had the same plot: How I Mounted Goldie, Saved My Partner Lori, and Sniffed Out The People’s Justice. Told from cybernetic police dog's pov. (http://escapepod.org/2008/08/01/ep169-how-i-mounted-goldie-saved-my-partner-lori-and-sniffed-out-the-peoples-justice/) This is a frekin'...

Commented on Virginia, the Blind Dog
Jason, Great article (sweet dog). I have to comment especially, though, on your writing style. It is most refreshing, and I'm going to look into your book, and look you up special on the Onion. :D...

Commented on Ghostbusters Ecto-1 on eBay
Oh. my. GOD. Anybody want to lend me $50k? Ghostbusters is my favorite movie of all time, and I'm an enormous Ghostbusters dork. I. Need. This. Car. I actually yelped out loud when I read this. Thanks, David, now all...

Commented on Growing the Poison Pepper
You picked my very favorite youtube vid of anyone eating a naga jolokia! I love that kid. First time I watched it, i kept jumping a bit ahead: Eating pepper....chew... chew... face red...pant...eat bread... drink milk... EAT BREAD DRINK MILK...

Commented on freaky food fun: Insert dried spaghetti into hot dogs, then boil
Squidlies seconded. I'm so making these tonight. Roommate suggested spiral pasta (if you could make the bore hole not make the hotdog structurally unstable) and making mac & cheese with it....

Right, no images in comments. Well, that's a link to a penguin in a jetpack, for the record. ;)...

Commented on Stimulus bill requires RSS feeds of how the money is spent
"I see that the government bought an $800 toilet seat and a $500 hammer." And yet, we developed the stealth bomber for almost free... on paper. Stuff like 500$ hammers aren't entirely people lining their pockets, though that does happen,...

Commented on Shuffle Deep the Gathering Gloom
I adore this game. The cards have proven to be quite durable, and we require that you recount each step of your poor character's journey in rhyme, if you can manage it. Don't get the cards wet, though. It doesn't...

Commented on Big Kitchen With Food: a five-year-old's cooking show
I am just not believing that this kid is not being told what to do and say by mom & dad. I don't think that anyone is saying that he's spontaneously saying that. When you're five MOST of your 'philosophy'...

Commented on "Gizmos" book helps you make working paper machines
I got this for christmas. The information about the physics of basic mechanisms is clearly layed out, and it has some amasingly easy to udnerstand cam information. Two thumbs up from this mouse....

Commented on Historic Halloween Steampunk Airship Ride With Victorian Rockers Abney Park
I'd go if I had the money. Saw Abney Park in Seattle about 2 weeks ago. Very fun show, and the band is about as UNpretentious as you could get....

Commented on Indonesian /C/h/i/n/e/s/e/ schoolgirl flips off old begging woman
Also: Japanese sign language - that's the sign for mountain, and with a very slight movement (that we may not see here) it's the sign for good morning. It's possible (not probable, mind you) that she's saying good morning to...

Joy! I still find myself humming the theme song. Another to add to my 'Must have' list, (though it has cut in line to the top)....

Commented on Britain on alert for deadly new knife with exploding tip that freezes victims' organs
This actually reminds me a lot of the knive Takeshi Kovacs uses in the Altered Carbon novels; it had a channel with a potent bioweapon of some kind in it. When he cut you enough to make you bleed, you...

Commented on Steampunk wallpaper artist wants your ideas
Nex: I agree wholeheartedly that I'm not cranking out masterpeices here. This is an excersize in production; much like NaNoWriMo is to force one into writing, this is forcing me back into graphics after a painful hiatus. Rest assured that...

Commented on Dale Mathis' clockworkpunk executive desk
a) thank you for calling this clockpunk, rather than steampunk. While the later is often subbed for the former, I much prefer gears to steam, myself. b) ::melts into a puddle of goo with desklust::...

Commented on Tiny origami folded with telesurgery equipment
@#3: I remember folding them for a little girl in Japan who was sick. Looking back, I'm sure it was in memory of the girl, as laid out in the wikipedia article on Senbazuru: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thousand_origami_cranes...
