I feel like we need to step up to dork level a bit. Here’s my humble attempt at a more pronounced geekery for a Thursday.
Cracked.com has been doing a fine series of photoshop contests lately. I’m partial to the series If History’s Greatest Minds Lived In The Modern World. Check out the facebook exchange between Newton and Pascal. “Shut up Joule!”
I’m going to get a Lawn Jawa. A friend rightly pointed out, “if you don’t get this for your yard then i don’t know you at all”
Ben doesn’t know it yet, but he’s getting Mad Scientist Blocks for Christmas. I think my favorite one is “K is for Potassium”. You bet it is!
Did you ever play with cornstarch and water in elementary school science? Well this is the coolest thing I’ve ever seen anyone do with a non-Newtonian fluid, and that’s really saying something. I am so going to put one of these together. Sorry honey, it’s for science.
