Another Game

Wednesday, November 26th, 2008

This is lessĀ  a game and more a playgound to build machines of your liking in and then try them out.

It is really cool, you can even create some sw33t Rube Goldberg machines!

Incredibots

This should frighten you.

I don’t think this is related to the meteor event last week ….

That thing is scary. It was filmed by the Shell Oil Company near one of their Oil drilling sites…

meteor?

Meteor or something else?

20 dollars a week…nope. Try one dollar a day for food.

This is an experiment where this couple decided to eat on only one dollar a day for a month ..yup $1.00. For me…I think I would have barder for a portion of coffee grounds, or maybe some Earl Grey, and re-use it over and over again. Anyway, they are pretty creative in their food choices, this challenge would be considerably more difficult if your job was very manual labor intensive. Pretty interesting to see people doing these types of experiments..it reminds me of the guy that tried to eat chimpanzee food for a month ( it was only a week)…I wonder if he is still alive..

$1a day.

different take on the zink

This is kind of cool, again like the Zink previously mentioned I do not have a need for this but really like the idea. Tomy had the Zink rinter in one hand and a small camera in the other….and then put their hands together and came out with this!

Fantastic contraption has been around for a while, but I just recently visited the site/game….and it is a time suck. you basically build a simple machine or not so simple to get a piece to the ‘goal’. You’ll see.

Rebelscum had their annual Halloween costume contest. I really enjoyed these costumes, my favorite, aside from tiny darth here, was this droid .
