    Fortuitous Testudines

    October 29, 2009 /

    On my way home from the gym about an hour ago, I spotted a familiar silhouette on the side of the road… I saw it after my headlights had passed over, but some primal part of my brain recognized the dark shape and screamed POSSIBLE FOOD SOURCE. I stopped and backed up a bit, and got out of the car. The rear running lights on my car shine through 38 year old lenses, so they aren’t that bright. But they were bright enough to show that I had found a pretty big turtle with pretty yellow stripes running up and down his legs and neck; his shell was about 9…

    If it seems some of your friends recently stopped posting on Facebook, it might be due to a recent Facebook “upgrade.” Here’s the fix: Go to FB Home Page Choose “Live Feed.” Scroll to the bottom & click ” Edit Options.” You will then see your “News Feed Settings.” Change the 250 to 5000, which is Facebook’s friend limit, and your feed will work correctly again.

    We took Mr. Max out to a friend’s birthday party at a nearby restaurant/fishing park (we ate but did not fish), but he got weepy so we came back, took showers, and for daddy it’s back to the grind now. /////////////////////// I hate when I accidentally hit the Insert key when editing in Word.

    Karma, illustrated

    October 25, 2009 /

    Cosmic Buddha was born in a Mahayana country… But now lives in a Theravada one. The differences between the two are apparent in the way they affect the curry: Curries in Mahayana countries are more refined, and curries in Theravada countries have deeper flavor; all are delicious. Of course, karma can crush you regardless of the flavor you choose.

    The World Housing Market – 50,000,000 Yen Edition

    October 23, 2009 /

    Here is an amusing photo series depicting the kind of houses you can buy around the world for fifty million yen (which is a whopping 547,106 USD at today’s rate – endaka is such a fickle bitch!): 5000??????????? The locations represented, in order, are: Thai Bali Chicago Costa Rica Brazil Spain Tokyo The problem, of course, is that land value skews the representations far too much. For instance, if you paid half a mil for the Thai house in anywhere but a few select locations, you paid 3 or 4 times more than you should have. Also, Brazil and Indonesia sure have similar architecture and beaches… Still, it’s a pretty…
