New Loch Ness Monster Video Footage

Thursday, May 31st, 2007

From CNN:

An amateur scientist has captured what Loch Ness Monster watchers say is among the finest footage ever taken of the elusive mythical creature reputed to swim beneath the waters of Scotland’s most mysterious lake.

“I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw this jet black thing, about 45-feet (15 meters) long, moving fairly fast in the water,” said Gordon Holmes, the 55-year-old a lab technician from Shipley, Yorkshire, who took the video this past Saturday.

He said it moved at about 6 mph (10 kph) and kept a fairly straight course.

Microsoft Surface, aka Super Expensive Lite Bright Coffee Table

Wednesday, May 30th, 2007

Surface is a touch sensitive table/computer. I won’t bore you with the details, you can find them at the links below.

It looks really pretty and fun. I can even imagine this being useful in a meeting setting, where multiple people can provide input into something like a project plan or preparing a presentation. However, I don’t see this technology as world changing. Cool, yes, but not likely to help the average Joe get his work done faster, and that will always relegate this to ‘cool tech toy’ status.

And finally, here is a video, of what looks to me to be MS Surface from TechFest a few weeks ago:

My Pillsbury Bake-Off Submission

Sunday, May 27th, 2007

The Pillsbury Bake-Off contest has been around for nearly 60 years, and is the largest cooking contest in the world, offering the winner a million dollar grand prize. Judges are sure to see some awsome dishes, full of exotic ingredients, and impeccable presentation.

I, too, am known as a bit of a culinary artist. My PB&J is actually spelled with nine letters. One of my favorite dishes is Hamburger Lifesaver. Add 2 rolls of Lifesavers hard candy to Hamburger Helper, spicen up with some ‘Emeril’s Essance’ and BAM, you have one freakin awesome meal.

However, I expect my submission this year’s Pillsbury Bake-Off to eclipse all of my other creations. I call it Frankeroni and Cheese, and you can find the recipe below.

Frankeroni and Cheese

Francaroni and Cheese

Ingredients:
1 box macaroni and cheese
4 hot dogs

Preparation:
Prepare macaroni and cheese as directed. Slice hot dogs into thin slices. When the macaroni has been finished add the sliced hot dogs in. Heat until the hot dog slices are warm.

Don’t worry if your first try at this recipe doesn;t quite turn out right. It’s a tricky one. Keep on practicing, though, your tastebuds will thank you later.

Creationist Museum to Open in Kentucky

Saturday, May 26th, 2007

A 27 million dollar creationist museum is set to open it’s doors Monday in Petersburg, Kentucky.

Parents who want stupid kids are welcome to pay $9.95 for kids and $19.95 for adults (gays can enter for $49.95 and must submit to 60 seconds of caining) to see how dinosaurs entered Noah’s ark, how incest can be a really good thing (Cain married his sister to start the largest family tree ever), and basically show us that the Bible should be interpreted word for word.

Gas up the short bus, Zeke, I’m ready to go.

A Mother’s Approval

Many of us spend our whole lives trying to gain approval and validation from our parents. As children, we make our moms cards, then try our best in school. This boy has a much different experience.

Hogzilla II: Boy Shoots 1050 lb Wild Boar

Friday, May 25th, 2007

Hogzilla is being made into a horror movie. But the sequel may be even bigger: Meet Monster Pig. An 11-year-old Alabama boy used a pistol to kill a wild hog his father says weighed a staggering 1,051 pounds and measured 9-feet-4 from the tip of its snout to the base of its tail. Think hams as big as car tires.
If the claims are accurate, Jamison Stone’s trophy boar would be bigger than Hogzilla, the famed wild hog that grew to seemingly mythical proportions after being killed in south Georgia in 2004.

The audio on this is terrible, so you may want to use headphones or turn up the volume… but this is the best soundboard phone call I have heard in quite a while.
