Encyclopedia Mythica looks like a very nice resource.
Balance the Kitty
Posted in Fun on Oct 8th, 2004
When I was younger, I used to like to balance a broom handle upright on my hand. It’s way easier in real life than it is on a computer, and it’s way easier with a mouse than it is with a track pad. furafuraneko.

Exactitudes is an interesting look at lots of people wearing basically the same thing. The index page is a bit too small for my tastes, and I don’t like the way the thumbnails re-order themselves on every page view, but all in all, it’s an interesting project.

Falling Behind

I feel like there’s something I’m not getting about del.icio.us. Everywhere i go on the web, people are talking about it (and flickr) as the new hotness.

I find it really surprising, but it turns out you can swim in syrup just as fast as you can swim in water. Now I really want to go jump into a pool of syrup, or maybe just dive into a big plate of pancakes. Mmmmm… Pancakes.
