I saw an Australian movie called The Castle tonight. It’s pretty funny and definitely worth seeking out. The humor feels sort of British to me. It’s a little like The Office or Are You Being Served. It’s not Mocumentary or anything, but it sort of has that feel.

Something about this seems so cool. They’ve built a program that tweaks CSS to create machine generated web design. Keep refreshing, and you’ll keep getting a new design. Yes, it’s totally pointless. That’s what makes it neat. Thanks Matt

Wow, Ellen Golla’s Paper Mosaic Collages must take forever to create. Hard to tell on the web, but they look really nice.

I went for my first professional massage today. I’m not sure how I feel about the experience. I didn’t hate it or anything, but I was expecting to have one of those why did I wait so long kinds of experiences. I didn’t get that though. To begin with, there was just an awful lot [...]
