Bone Head/Alien Tattoo of the Day

"Last week a number of computers were stolen from our office in Vancouver, BC. One of those computers was a shared iMac with Flickrbooth, an app that automatically uploads photo booth shots to our flickr account, installed on it. Just this morning a friend called to tell us that there are photos of whoever has the computer now in our flickr stream! Obviously the guy didn't know he was uploading images of himself and his awesome tattoos." - Link (via Boing Boing)

Songs of Insects

"In a culture where knowledge of insect song is pale in comparison to the interest in the songs of birds and frogs, we are determined to bring singing insects into popular focus. We will accomplish this by sharing the resources we've collected and by communicating our passion for these marvelous fiddlers of the forests and fields." - Link

The Sponge Monkeys Like the Moon

Make a Foxhole Radio - Weekend Project Podcast

"During World War II, GIs in the field built really amazing simple radios to listen too. These were made with materials that they could get their hands on and were small enough to carry around in a big pocket. You can modify this design if you want to set it up so that it's tuneable too!" - Link (MAKE: Blog)

An Outhouse For Kitty Comment

Did anyone realize that this is simply put together using a modular wire cube shelving system? If you don’t have the time to buy a package of shelves for $30 on Amazon and configure it yourself, then I guess it makes sense for you.

FYI, the crate system pieces pull apart (Quick-lock connectors make assembly easy) and aren’t designed to be screwed or fastened together in any other way. Don’t count on this as protection against large outside predators for Mittens. Personally, I think the pictured item makes for a good mock up of what could be manufactured, not something that should be for sale. - Link (via The Uber-Review)

How To Shoot Heroin

"Despite all the lies you've probably heard from parents and other grownups, heroin is actually very good for you. It makes you smart and it feels great!

Top 10 Most amazing facts about the Earth

"It turns out that in some places you will feel slightly heavier than others. A low spot can be seen just off the coast of India, while a relative high occurs in the South Pacific Ocean. The cause of these irregularities is unknown since present surface features do not appear dominant. NASA's GRACE twin satellites, launched in March 2002, are making detailed measurements of Earth's gravity field which will lead to discoveries about gravity and Earth's natural systems." - Link

Up Butt Coconut

Prank Call to Arms

"The following are transcripts from actual phone calls to military recruiters. The officers' names have been changed to protect the somewhat innocent. This is the first of a two-part series." -

The other thing, I'm a real clotheshound, and I gotta admit, I kind of like the uniforms, but I'm not into green for the most part.

Actually, we're wearing a digital pattern now, and it's blue and tan.

Can you spice it up with some yellows or reds?

No, you can't.

Is your underwear also camouflage?

No, that's pretty much up to you.

So you can go wild with underwear—and socks, maybe?

Yeah.

Good, 'cause I've got a lot of red and yellow stripes, I'm a huge yellow and red freak. - Link
