Slick Wheels.

The first thing I have to say about the following link is that the video is faked, but a very cool concept.

"Draw a straight line on top of the car, lift the pen and the car shoots off in a straight line. Draw a circle on the car and the car starts wildly spinning around. Draw a complicated squiggle and the car spirals in and out."



"Sketch-a-Move allows you to explore the unique relationships between small surface doodles and actual physical movements. It creates a new engaging space for play amongst children of a wide age group and is appealing to boys as well as girls, and even adults!"

This toy is very cool, and I want one, but they don't exist which makes me sad. See what it would be like if this toy did exist, check it out!

Anybody else want one?

Cheese Flavored Fun.

Do you remember Combos? You know, the snack that appears to be for dogs but is consumed by people. I was at school today waiting in line to purchase a jug of Mountain Dew (the preferred beverage of Jeffrey's who want to stay awake during lengthily lectures), when suddenly there I was face-to-face with the a snack I had not sampled in ten years; Combos.

You may be wondering; "What exactly is a Combo?" Well I'll tell you. A combo is a Tube-shaped cracker or pretzel that is "filled with a delicious cheese-flavored filling." Oh yes, it is as glorious as it sounds.

Don't be afraid to try this mystery snack. If my endorsement is not enough, the back of the package states;

"The official Cheese-Filled snack of NASCAR."

If NASCAR has claimed Combos as their cheese-filled snack of choice, shouldn't you? Shouldn't you?

If you can name a better mystery-filled snack please do so in the comments section.

Kiss my shiny metal...

I just picked up the final season of Futurama on DVD and it's awesome. Season Four has several of the funniest and sweetest moments that ever occurred in the series such including the introduction of Leela's long-lost mutant parents.

Leela was raised in an orphanage because her folks didn't want her to grow-up with the stigma of being a sewer-dwelling mutant. They decided she looked normal enough to pass as an alien which is far better than being a mutant. The episode ends with Leela embracing her mutant parents which is followed by a nice montage of moments in Leela's lonely life where it is revealed that her parents were there for her the whole time without her even knowing it.



And if you're even a mild Trekkie you'll love the episode, Where No Fan Has Gone Before. Much of the cast from the original Star Trek
series came on the show and voiced their own characters. Before the end of the episode the Trek crew is forced to battle with the Futurama crew by a gaseous being who has brought them to his home-planet for his entertainment. Good stuff.

When crossovers go wrong.

Crossover Comic books are not uncommon. DC Comics and Marvel have had many crossover plots that utilize their biggest stars such as "Spider-man Vs. Superman." Often these comics are not overly interesting and do not merit discussions, but I think I have found one that deserves some attention...

The Punisher vs. Archie

I assume most everyone is familiar with the Archie Comics. If you have ever waited in line at a super market with your mom or dad, chances are an Archie Digest was at eye level. However, you may not be familiar with The Punisher, but I am sure you can guess the type of comic it is by its title. The Punisher is a comic book series about a guy who punishes criminals by violently killing them.

So with out further delay, here are a few of the panels from The Punisher vs. Archie

Is the Punisher here to kill the Archie gang?


Or is the Punisher here to protect?


If you said protect, and by protect you meant that the Punisher mentally scars the kids for life by gunning down all the bad guys in a ruthless, bloody, rampage at the kids high school dance...
YOU WERE RIGHT!!!
