What a waste of £425,000....

Now you can “FLY” through water at an amazing speed of 2-5 knots!

Thanks Sir Branson, you really have out done your self this time. I mean I love toys and if I was rich I would have A LOT of them but come on. Then again what lazy rich bastard wouldn’t want to pay roughly $325,000 for a week vacation, and the opportunity to cruise in this bad boy? Oh, I still have to wear SCUBA? Oh and can only be under water for 2 hours at a time? Then why don’t I just get out and swim? Guess I wouldn’t understand.

Necker Nymph in brief: Dimensions: 4.6m (l) x 3.0m (w) x 1.2m (h)
 Cruise Speed: 2-5 knots 
Crew: 3 (available in 1 or 2 seats) Launch Weight: 750kg
 Payload: 3 persons

One President, would you like fries with that?

Here we go. An age where deep corporate pockets can bend public opinion to elect those individuals to office. All so that corporate pockets can get deeper. Helping fuel their public opinion control. This could turn to be a very tiring, and scary cycle.

An age where corporations hold the same rights as individuals. Next up robots….

WaPo: Skywalkers in Korea Cross Han Solo

complicatedshoes:

Best. Headline. Ever.

Agreed! Old article but dear God I hope someone told each competitor “May the Force be with you.” before they started their run. Also, who thought high wire walking would make enough of a comeback in 2007 that a competition would be held, WITH 9 CONTESTANTS! Nuts.

via: shoesonwrong I call this project RECYCLE-A-CYCLE! A Vespa rocking horse. Can I get one in red with some sort of haste? Or do I have to cannibalize one myself? Which would be more green but not nearly as nice as getting one for a reasonable price. World, BEND TO MY WILL! I promise to be just as happy as this kid!

Holiday flight to ice...

So we came to Florida to see some nice weather and get away from the cold. Have been here 5 days, all of them cold but the last. Since it was still better weather then home, we have decided to flee the nice weather for a blizzard. So here we come ice and snow. Let’s party.

biorhythmist: staff: Inspired by Wordpress’ seriously clever use of Loren Brichter’s new Tweetie options, we’re launching our own Tweetie and Twitterrific compatible API. This Twitter-like API should make it easy for a lot of existing Twitter clients to start supporting Tumblr. The really cool thing - because our following models follow a lot of the same principles, we’ve been able to take advantage of a ton of native features: Retweeting = Reblogging Replying = Reblogging w/ commentary Favoriting = Liking “@david” = ”http://david.tumblr.com/” Conversations = Reblogs To try out Tumblr in Tweetie 2, tap “Accounts” → “+” → enter your username and password → tap the gear icon → enter “http://tumblr.com/” in both fields. For Twitterrific, tap ”Sources” → “Edit” → “Add a New Account” → enter your username and password → tap ”Advanced” → set “Base URL” to “http://tumblr.com/” and disable “SSL”. This is absolutely amazing news. Thank you Tumblr staff!
