    bmx as an art form

    Corey Martinez takes it to a new level. Click here. Link shoule now be fixed, if it still doesn’t work try to paste this into your browser: http://www.milkandcookies.com/links/27729/

    I used to BMX when I was a teenager, and I was pretty good too, at least for the time, which was, er, a long long time ago. Since then the BMX guys have really taken it to another level. Then another. Then another. And another. I can’t believe the shiznit they pull off. It’s insanity. Fun too watch though.

    giant mechanical bugs

    I’ve seen this before, but I wanted to post about it anyway. The thing looks like an ant with a giant stinger! The designers must have made it look like a bug on purpose. My hat’s off to them. What a killer project - it’s science fiction becoming reality. I had the same thought the other day when I bought some stuff at Albertson’s and I used the self checkout line. The checkout machine talked to me! It thanked me, so I said “you’re welcome machine…” Really wild stuff if you think about it. Um, the machine, not my inane conversation with it. :-)

    Does Wallmart sell evil?

    According to this preacher, all the women I know are possessed by demons. Because they wear blue jeans. This story leaves me speechless. What about Khakis? Or Capri’s? Bicycle pants are pretty evil too (and how). Why stop at blue jeans? What about tube tops? Leg warmers? Or fur hats? Does ol’ Beelzebub have a preference for Denim? Perhaps the soft but resilient fabric somehow eases the transition between the spirit and physical world?

    When I was a kid, and I’m dating myself here, I had an entire three piece suit (yes, with vest) made of blue denim. Boy, was I stylin’. But inhabited by demons? Yes, perhaps, and maybe that explains a few things, but then again, maybe only the combination of denim and estrogen attracts demons. Is testosterone a demon repellent? If so maybe Levis could include some sort of aerosol spray with their products for women. Just a thought. Perhaps the whole demon and denim threat could be mitigated with some targeted products in pink spray cans. Probably go over well at Wallmart. Thank god for Wallmart. Hey, wait, do they sell jeans to women? Oh no! Wallmart is selling evil! Now there a nice mathematical proof, from demonized blue jeans to evil Wallmart. Can you follow the logic? I knew you could.

    Take a tour of the MacBU!

    Robert Scoble takes a tour of Microsoft’s Mac Business Unit (MacBU - pronounced Mac-Boo). My ex-team. Sniff. Brings back memories… Steve Friesen does a great job as host with sidekicks Dennis and Andy. Nice job guys.

    I worked with all these guys for years. They are very dedicated to the Mac and the Mac Office product. It’s a great team staffed by smart people. I had a great time working with them, though now I do next to nothing with Macintoshes. Oh well.

    Do you speak italian?

    I sure don’t, but here I am in an italian publication of some kind.

    What was the middle thing? About the cow?

    “I believe that, as quickly as possible, young cows ought to be allowed to go across our border.”—George W. Bush, Ottawa, Nov. 30, 2004

    Check out all these “Bushisms”. Too funny.
