Noney Saturday
- Julien Dupont motorbike freestyle. You would think that, unlike BMX tricks, this would have important real-world applications. From the video, however, that doesn’t seem to be the case.
- Mustaches of the Nineteenth Century.
- What you need is your own personal moon.
- ‘They can’t all be pretty ones.’
- I do not believe your 65-foot filing cabinet skyscraper,
- . . . but I might be persuaded to believe 831 fluorescent tubes powered by the electromagnetic field surrounding overhead power lines.
- Florida Bicycling Street Smarts. Very Highlights-for-children, but actually has lots of useful information. Recommend chapters 6, 8, and 9.
- How does it feel to die, in case you haven’t seen it yet. Terrifying.
- “There is a crack, there is a line, and eventually there will be a scar and that scar will remain.” A mysterious crack installed in the floor of the Tate Modern. Another photo.
- ezee’s flickr stream. Eye-popping pictures from India.
- These here internets sure do love lists. Andrew Bell compiles the ultimate one. Wow — there goes your weekend.
- G-force test. I felt relaxed and refreshed after watching this.
- Noney, the people’s currency. Get away from me you dirty commies.
- Instructables.
- “Leave the World Trade Center excavation exactly as it is and use the space as a freshwater pond, planted with pink, white and yellow water lilies. Stock it with bass, sunnies, fat-head minnows and turtles. Fishing for children under 12 only. A small statue of Voltaire shall be installed there, too.” #6 in Danny Lyon’s 10-step plan for New York City.
- The photography of Myoung Ho Lee and Sage Sohier.
- Taco Bell is opening stores in Mexico, apparently targeted to the upper class.
- Caution: this game has educational overtones. It’s still sort of fun, though. Bonus points if anyon can solve the ‘Loop the loop’ level, which seems broken.

Loop the loop works, you just don’t use the tesla coil…
That did it. Yer a genius, John.
Thanks, I try…now if I could be smart enough to get unbanned from Babalu…
