Sorry for the lack of posts... Hope this video of a dog playing Tony Hawk Ride makes up for it.

leonid meteor shower

Today and Tuesday look out for meteors coming from the constellation Leo. This shower is the cause of the earth passing through the tail of the comet Tempel-Tuttle, and there will be 70-90 shooting stars per hour. So get away from the city, bundle up, and enjoy!

bread shoes

Edible shoes. Because foot-in-mouth disease is all the rage now! It really makes perfect sense: soft, squishy soles with a hard protective coating. Hobos, rejoice!



I think I'll have to pass on Subway for lunch...

i'm a huge nerd

Today I was sitting in class trying so very hard to pay attention, and minesweeper became too big of a distraction. I play it a lot. And today, I got the best high score I've ever had. 89 seconds on expert. And really, this is the only place I can ever brag about it. So check it out:


I dare you to beat that score.

parahawking

Parahawking is the coolest sport to hit Nepal. Its basically parasailing in tandem with a bird of prey. Apparently, the birds guide them to thermals (columns of air used to life birds into the air) to allow for aerobatic maneuvers. What could be dangerous about that? I can already hear my mother saying "It'll peck your eye out!"



Looks safe to me. Lets hope that bird ate dinner.
