Trotify – a mechanical wooden device that clips to your bike’s front wheel and makes it clop like a horse. It involves a coconut.

You know, the other day on MetaFilter somebody defined a hipster as “someone younger than you having more fun and often wearing a silly hat at the same time”. That’s what this makes me think of.

Geeks and Privilege – Well said. The Snook and I have always admitted how lucky we were to have the breaks we had and to end up in the jobs we’re in.

Old Man Handbag – Good grief, that’s CREEPY.
