So Many...

So many interesting things floating around on the internet today. Pick and choose what you want to read.

The Book Pillow:
This made me think of high school. A pillow that looks like a book sounds like a good idea, but really, do you think your boss is going to care what you’re drooling on when he finally finds which cubicle the snoring is coming from? On the other hand, if you work in a place where you are somewhat isolated, this could allow you to get a little siesta after lunch without ending up with the telltale red mark on your forehead from sleeping on your arm. I hate to break it to you, but that’s why everyone seems to be repressing a giggle when they look at you during the 2:00 meeting. It takes about 15 minutes for the “nap rash” to fade out.

New Bike Transmission:
I’m not sure how efficient this is or even if it is better than traditional bike transmissions, but I thought it was interesting. Especially because it was designed over 500 years ago by Leonardo da Vinci. This could also be titled, “How To Get People To Spend $4000 For a Bike.”

Have You Seen “Honey I Shrunk The Kids?”
Big furniture sized Lego bricks. Okay, technically they are not real Lego bricks but I know of some huge Lego fans (ha! get it?) that will enjoy this and perhaps spend a second or two calculating what it would cost to buy enough of these to build the previously blogged Millennium Falcon. ($582,500).

Interesting stuff.

As I was writing a comment on TGD, a thought came to me...
there should be some way to demonstrate sarcasm through typing. We can yell or show strong emotion by capital letters. We can show humor many ways...hahaha, lol, :), etc. but we don't really have a good way to show facetiousness. It's a real handicap, don't you think?

See, you actually just proved my point S-G! I WASN'T being sarcastic when I said, "interesting stuff"...I was just commenting. It really was interesting to me too! I always appreciate your randomness.

The next part of my comment was b/c of Clint's comment on TGD...however I didn't want to bring it up over there b/c I like the sophistication of this blog better and thought the responses would be more insightful...
