Kids, vibrating pajamas, and chickens. Add the word "choke" in there and someone’s naive good intention is going land people in jail.

But I can prove I never touched ____

All joking aside, this is really cool and puts us so much closer to true virtual reality experiences!

Singapore scientists looking for ways to transmit the sense of touch over the Internet have devised a vibration jacket for chickens and are thinking about electronic children’s pyjamas for cyberspace hugs.

Ok. I took one of those tests. It was the T&A and Cuteness test. See results. Like horoscopes, I think the results of this test could have said most anything and you would nod your head and agree.

Progressive Walmart? November 29, 2005 10:11 am

This interesting article labels Walmart as "progressive" and good for the poor citing that Walmart’s $200 billion-plus assistance to consumers rivals federal programs such as food stamps ($33 billion) and earned-income tax credit ($40 billion).

If critics prevent the firm from opening new branches, they will prevent ordinary families from sharing in those gains. Poor Americans will be chief among the casualties.

Another interesting tidbit is that the "average Wal-Mart customer earns $35,000 a year, compared with $50,000 at Target and $74,000 at Costco."

Oh the things I wouldn’t know if not for blogs! I was looking in on Drawn! this morning and discovered some interesting tidbits.

Flickr is for photos
[Flickr] want[s] to assert themselves as a site for sharing photographs, and any accounts that are extensively non-photographic in nature (ie illustrations) will be rendered NIPSA, or Not In Public Site Areas. …your images will not show up in searches or tag results, and this includes any legitimate photographs in your account as well.
Stan Berenstain dead
While there are no official press releases yet…
Richard Scarry Gets PC
I’m sure everyone has this book in their house. Now check out the changes from 1980 to 1990.
