The Dyson Telescope Game. Very cool puzzle game.
Homemade Mortar. I must have one of these. If for no other reason than it would let me briefly take my bowling ball out of retirement.
The Ergonomic Keyboard for Pirates. Damn. Wish I'd seen this before Talk Like a Pirate Day. Arrrr!

A new contest has opened and there are already a few entries. Go look. Vote by linking to an entry on your own blog. I'm reading 'em but will wait to vote until Thursday or Friday.
It's wierd. I think this is the first week since I've been blogging that I'm not in the contest. The end of an era.

8,000+ visits this week and only 4 people voted for my entry in the New Weblog Showcase? Come on people! I know it has become a sort of tradition for me to enter the Showcase but the last two entries were allowed only because of technicalities. Unless NZ Bear lets everybody back in again because of Isabel interference or something like that this is my very last shot at the coveted trophy.
Don't make me beg. You wouldn't like me when I beg.
Okay, I'm begging. Please, oh please! Please put a link to my entry on your site.
Still no? Well you should just think about something. I know things, you know. Things that could make things rather unpleasant for you. A wise person would probably put a link to my entry on their weblog.
I didn't mean it! It's the pressure. It's just getting to me.
So what will it take then? Money? How much? Does $5 a link sound fair? Okay, it's a deal. Go forth and link me.
Ah, who am I kidding. You know I'm a cheap bastard and would never pay up. How about this, then. You link my entry and I will personally drink a beer in your honor at the barbeque tomorrow. That's fair, isn't it? You get a real world effect for just making a post on your blog. That's a something for nothing deal there, that is. I'll throw in a bonus, too. If I get lots of links that means I'll be lots of drunk. If I win the contest I'll get G to guestblog any stupid stuff that I do.
And go ahead and vote for any of the other contestants at the Showcase. Just don't vote for anybody with more votes than me.

One question: When performing an upper decker you can't flush. What do you do with the toilet paper?

You would think, since there is no more than 6 degrees of separation between each of us and Kevin Bacon that a virus trolling thru one after another address book, would eventually find kevin bacon, or pam anderson and send me a virus mail using their address as sender.
Now if I actually got one, I don't know yet what I would do with it, but if it was Pam's (or Jolene's!) I might be inclined to write and suggest I can help her with her virus problems and offer to go visit. Kevin's I would probably chuck. ;-)
But I wonder what it means that we don't have any celebrity virus mail. Are there more than 6 degrees of separation? Do they have better virus protection in Hollywood than the rest of us? Maybe they don't use e-mail at all? Maybe they use pseudonyms or their original names to hide their identity. Like Tony Curtis using Bernie Schwartz. So perhaps I have gotten virus mail from Madonna, but didn't realize that Louise Veronica Ciccone was her. It's possible that if I got one from Jacko@neverneverland.com, I wouldn't believe it really was from the gloved one.
Well pseudonyms are plausible as an excuse for the biggest celebrities, but I suspect there are large numbers of celebrities (sports, authors, etc.) that wouldn't use a pseudonym. I can't see Johnny Cochrane for example, hiding his identity. Probably a virus from him would rhyme:
We like our mails to have some charm,
but sometimes they contain a virus,
so if in fact this mail does harm,
let's sue the hacker, please hire us.
How come I don't see viruses coming ostensibly from politicians or well-known government officials or at least their offices? They send out enough mail...
Instead people get viruses from weird names like i18nguy, and bluedscrewedandtattooed31. Something is funny here, but I can not yet put my finger on it. Maybe there is a first class network,and we are all riding (or writing) coach...
Viruses would be more tolerable if they were coming from celebrities. I would love to get a mail from Gore Vidal, or Buzz Aldrin. Heck, if I got one, I might even forward it to friends to show them! ;-)

"B" is for Bystander, like the people who watched as Anna Lindh was chased up an escalator and stabbed to death.
