Cake Versus Pie: A Scientific Approach — Aiming Low
This was the post that made me fall in love with Allie over at Hyperbole and a Half . This was the post that turned the night of March 15th into the biggest timesuck in the history of me, because it was spent stalking poor Allie’s archives. And then I shared my love with the rest of the Aiming Low team and they were all, “OH MY GOD, I want to hump her a little bit too!” We have good taste in reading material over here, folks. We are honored that Allie agreed to be a part of our Three Day Weekend.

That shopping cart bycicle is just epic. I mean that isn't even a shoddy idea, it's just brilliant. I would trade my bike for that one, any day. But that swimming pool... Those tablets you throw into them to keep the pool clean make the water a pretty good conductor. On the other hand , you are throwing in an entire socket, so the ground is actually in the socket as well, so perhaps it will only shortcircuit the socket itself.When is it time buy a new computer?
Every day millions of people struggle with slow computers. They don't realize that buying a new computer is fast, easy, and has nothing to do with giving in to our consumer culture by buying exessively powerful computers just to check their mail and play Sudoku.

Deep Thoughts
To me, it's a good idea to always carry two sacks of something when you walk around. That way, if anybody says, "Hey, can you give me a hand?" You can say, "Sorry, got these sacks." One thing kids like is to be tricked. For instance, I was going to take my nephew to Disneyland, but instead I drove him to an old burned-out warehouse. "Oh no," I said, "Disneyland burned down."
Introduction One of the most feared colors in the NT world is blue. The infamous Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) will pop up on an NT system whenever something has gone terribly wrong. Bluescreen is a screen saver that not only authentically mimics a BSOD, but will simulate startup screens seen during a system boot. Bluescreen cycles between different Blue Screens and simulated boots every 15 seconds or so. Virtually all the information shown on Bluescreen's BSOD and system start screen is obtained from your system configuration - its accuracy will fool even advanced NT developers.
