I like turtles

This video had me laughing so hard over and over that I just have to share it with you all (even though this might put my blog site at the risk of looking like a video repository)

T-Pain and his lyrics!
12:29 AM, THURSDAY, JUNE 28, 2007


I was listening to the radio and this song came on. I loved it right away (who cares about lyrics in a hip-hop song, anyways?) and went home and bought it online. Check it out:



Soon after I bought that song, I ran into this video on YouTube - where a "white" guy recites the lyrics to that song. Pretty hilarious!



Hmm... never realized that the lyrics of that song were sooo absurd!

Real world pranks
5:17 PM, SUNDAY, JUNE 17, 2007


There are quite a few times when I've wanted to kick myself for not bringing a camera along to capture something really weird or just plain funny. Well, on the other hand, there are a few fortunate moments when I did have a camera handy and this is one such time.

About two weeks ago, on the way to a hike, we found this sign. Now, if you look closely, the sign says that the trail is open to Humans and - you're not going to believe your eyes - Llamas. And this is near Seattle.

My theory is that this is a prank by some forest ranger who set this sign up, and is having a few chuckles.

Now, this prank is nothing compared to the one that the city of Seattle has pulled off. Yes, I'm talking about the newly created Olympic Sculpture Park. The city spent millions of dollars in erecting this elaborate prank. Come on, where else would you find a concrete park bench being touted as a piece of art?



Well, the funny thing is that the prank is actually working. The park attracts thousands of tourists, both local and visiting, to fall into the trap.



The picture above is the "description" for the park bench.

"...proportion, construction and image in equal measure" - how exactly do you measure proportion, construction and image?

"His design solution..." - I wonder what problem this design is trying to solve.

And "...limitless number of lengths" - someone please explain that to me, my parser just crashed with a callstack overflow.
