Car Porn

Check out this Jalopnik story about a company that has hand built a one of a kind BMW E30 M3. The pictures are fascinating...they've basically built the entire car from the ground up.

I love this article. It draws the obvious parallel that this country's right wing conservatives are so loony because they have been conditioned by religion to be unreasonable and adverse to facts. Having "faith" results in closed mindedness...makes sense to me but that's probably just my lack of faith talking.

Science is hard.

Yet another nail in the coffin of so called "Intelligent Design". This article from Wired deals with some pretty heady concepts but the basics are that the mitochondrial components of complex cells evolved from bacteria.

Of course the average "Intelligent Design" proponent lacks the imagination, IQ and education to actually understand these concepts. It's far easier to give the credit for this planet's amazing diversity of life to an invisible man that lives in the sky. Damn, I miss George Carlin (NSFW link).

Good one.

Here's 10 Reasons to laugh at Glenn Beck, douchebag.

Magnetic field my ass!!

This is total witchcraft! Wireless electricity using "sympathetic resonant magnetic fields".....it's fucking cool as hell!

Hug a Nerd Day.

Grrr......took day off yesterday which ALWAYS leads to a wonderful day back.

I consider it my duty to educate the non-geek among you on the most important parts of geek culture. Today's lesson: The Guild.

Basically it is a show about online gaming addictions, specifically World Of Warcraft addiction. The show is hilarious and should be relatively understandable even to those that have no knowledge of WOW at all. It was created by the wonderfully talented Felicia Day, whom is not only female (nerd gasp!) but really hot too. There are few gamers out there that don't worship her...of course with videos like this it is small wonder.



Here's the first episode of The Guild.

The Hellscape

The People of Walmart, a site documenting the fine patrons of America's largest retailer.

No Irish!

Here's a couple of trailers for Liam Neeson's upcoming movie about the unrest in Northern Ireland called Five Minutes of Heaven. If you saw Taken then you know that Neeson is a great actor these days (IMHO he should gotten nominated for something for Taken.)

Of course James Nesbitt is just as great and hopefully this may finally give him some star power for US audiences. If you've never seen the Jekyll TV series he did for BBC a couple of years ago then you are really missing out. he was fantastic and the show was awesome.
