Combine bowling with breakout and what do you get? You get Pongling. Why not Breaking? Well, they think it’s a cross between pong and bowling. But it’s not. It’s clearly breakout and bowling. Fun though in a maddening kind of way.

Tick … Tick … Tick …

Roughly speaking, the next 493,200 seconds are mine to do with as I wish. How oh how shall I spend my time? Will I spend it cleaning my condo, redesigning my web site, starting work on that novel that’s been kicking around my brain for the past few months — nah, I’ll probably just lay [...]
Strange Fruits Art Portal
Posted in Web on Dec 31st, 2002
Strange Fruits looks like some kind of portal to on-line art sites. I’ve only scratched the surface here, but there are some beautifully realized sites. Take for instance the work of Stefan Morris.
Some kind of protest?

Go to this page and view source. What the hell?
Nice Design

Ooooh, I dig the design over on arakna.net. It’s so colorful and geometric, it makes me want to redesign here. In case it changes, here’s a screen grab.

You’ve all been sitting in quiet judgment laughing at the lameness that is me haven’t you? Well [...]

Soon to be an olympic event, it’s House Gymnastics.
Kunstbar: Yes, but is it Art?
Posted in Web on Dec 28th, 2002
I don’t care what you say. A 3-year-old could NOT do that. Update: And, as proof that there’s too much noise on MetaFilter these days, it seems this was posted there over a month ago, and I totally missed it. I hate that! This is why I go to MeFi, so when I realize stuff [...]
Personal Hovercraft
Posted in Cool Toys on Dec 27th, 2002
How do you take something as potentially cool as a personal hovercraft and make it seem so unbelievably lame? Quality Web Design my friends, quality web design. Check out the movies though. I’d get tired of it after about 7 minutes, but those would be some seriously fun 7 minutes.
Wherefore Art Thou Platelets

Nicked myself shaving this morning. Normally, this is no big deal. Splash a little cold water on it, maybe a bit of pressure, and the thing clots up lickety split. Not so today. Today, there seems to be no stopping the bleeding. I jumped in the shower not understanding the severity of my mortal wound, [...]
