Skoda limousine

Some Czech artisans have crafted/grafted together a limousine out of the common Skoda motorcar which populate the streets of the country.

These guys could be classified as Czecho-Rednecks, or Czechnecks, if you will. While their intentions are honorable, and the finished product works as promised, there's just something in the presentation that's just not quite right.

They should have only added one section and made a Skoda "Czecher" cab. (moan, boo!)

Czech out the pictures right here. (Stop it!)

The Steve Sleeve

We've all seen the commercial for the new MacBook Air, where the disembodied hand pulls the computer out of a manila envelope to emphasize the thinness of the device.

Well, the marketing boys at Timbuk2 have come up with a new idea for a laptop sleeve designed specifically for the Air-heads out there. It's called the "Steve Sleeve" and, on the outside, looks exactly like a manila envelope.






Clever? Stupid? I dunno. Either way it's bound to snag the Machead snobs who have a lot of money and wish to flaunt their technology.

The Steve Sleeve will be available in March from Timbuk2. Check out their announcement page here.

I have an idea for a laptop case made out of a DeWalt power tool case. Any takers?

To-Do lists

Those to-do lists that we foist upon ourselves to help us make better use of our time can sometimes drive us absolutely bonkers.

Here's a hilarious short video which pokes fun in all the right spots.

Great soundtrack, by the way.

Laser harp

This is a pretty slick effect. Create musical tones using laser light beams. Interrupt the beam, make a note. The visual is quite fascinating.

However, the light rays are merely substitutions for a MIDI keyboard. The sound is what you'd expect if you knew it was a MIDI.

Nonetheless, it's interesting to watch.

There's two videos below for your eyeballs.

Moguls? What are moguls?

Moguls are speed bumps for skiers and other people playing in the snow.

They keep you honest. They help you exhibit what little shred of talent and/or mental ability you really have.

Moguls are surprises in disguises.

Ah, moguls. And stupid people.
