We’ve been in super-hunker-down-and-deliver mode here at the office the last couple of weeks but thought I’d at least throw out a few things that have pulled our attention for a moment or two. How Far is it to Mars? – It’s a really long ways. Uuni – The Revolutionary (in home) Wood-Fired Pizza Oven…
There’s quite the discussion about link-style posts such as these on blogs these days. I don’t have a whole lot to contribute other than the fact that my blog is focused on and around things that interest me. If, like this style of post, are links that I am currently digging or find interesting, I…
I used to run a semi-regular post that I called 6th Day around here that was a Friday wrap-up of Internet things I’d stumbled across or liked throughout the week. Not sure what the significance of the title was but I’m bringing it back for at least one week. I think I’m going to resurrect…
End of week internet goodness for 10/09/09 Image heavy post today. View all past 6th Days here. Life Magazine’s 30 Dumb Inventions show that ingenuity doesn’t have to correlate with common sense.

Click the images to see the full graphics. First up, ever thought of printing out the Internet? Umm, me either. But if you…
End of week internet goodness for 09/18/09 Creepiness abounds in this 80’s dating video. “No fatties, no hamsters, no dopers, no smokers, no alcoholics, no Donna Juanitas, no posers, no crazies…” Dude, you’re doing your bio for video dating, don’t eliminate all of your prospects right off the bat. You know the music from 2001:…
A day for poor grammatical spacing and even worse Photoshop-ing all under the oft-used Fail theme. I’m Ron Burgundy?
Possible supporting evidence for seat belts on school buses? Ouch.
Some Friday randomness for you. If you missed it yesterday, the gold-standard by which all other “6th days” will be measured today: http://peopleofwalmart.com/ I don’t really care whether this is computer generated or real, all I know is that it’s loco en la cabeza.
