Way to go Daniel!

A-12 Avenger Canopy

A great gift for the person who has everything. How about the canopy from the secret A-12 Avenger? This stealth aircraft was developed by General Dynamics and McDonnell Douglas but was never built.

This canopy resided at Purdue University for 15 years before they sold it on GovDeals.com for $2300. This canopy appeared recently on eBay for $620,000.

Get it while you still can! :-)

Another Episode Of - Just Wrong

This is just wrong! Why would they dress up this poor kitty as Santa?

This little guy requires 24/7 care. I don't think that he could be any cuter!

It is sure to make your neighbors happy :-)

The realtor envisions that the buyer would build condos in the silo. :-)

Oskar The Blind Kitten - Helps Decorate For The Holidays

You may remember Oskar from my blog a few weeks ago. The loving family that takes care of him involves him in everything.

The thing that I love about Oskar is that he doesn't know a life with sight yet has more life in him than most people that I know!

Most Expensive Car Wreck In History

This has to be the most expensive car crash in history. There were 14 cars total. Among them were eight Ferraris, a Lamborghini and two Mercedes.

The insurance company is never going to believe this.

This is one of the most amazing things on the interwebitudes this year!

Unbelievable!

Want To Be A Spy?

Spies come in all shapes and sizes. They are not all like James Bond. In fact, a great deal of spy work is done sitting at a computer.

The British intelligence services have a unique way of recruiting for their cipher division. You simply go onto MI5's website and decipher the above puzzle. Sure beats trying to recruit using Monster.com :-)

Hamsters have nothing on these guys! :-)

The FCC announced today that the AT&T acquisition of T-Mobile is 'contrary to public interest.'

Oskar The Blind Kitten

A heartwarming story of people that take care of special animals.

What was once a great kids toy is now the ultimate party accessory!

Why do I get the feeling that these will be appearing in sports bars around the country any day now? :-)

This may be the coolest tree house ever!

Zeus, an 11 year old Maine Coon was walking through his Boulder Colorado living room recently and discovered company at the back door. This cougar seemed either hungry or mad, or both.

Windows XP turned 10. It is hard to believe that this vehicle of pain and suffering is still the most popular OS in the world. Windows 7 should overtake it any day now. Estimates say that this should happen by the end of the month.

AI Pioneer Dies

John McCarthy died at the age of 84. Dr. McCarthy was considered to be the father of Artificial Intelligence. Late in life he mentioned that he was a bit over-ambitious is his thinking that a machine could replicate the human brain.

The new Google Nexus has been announced. This is the new Android 4.0 device (aka, Ice Cream Sandwich). This phone blows the iPhone out of the water!

Steve Ballmer Disrespects Android

Steve Ballmer does it again. At the Web 2.0 conference, He said "You don't have to be a computer scientist to use a Windows Phone, but you do to use an Android phone."

Seriously? Has he ever tried to correct a Windows problem? Android is a very easy to use platform.

Insomuch that no one buys Windows phones, one might say that Mr. Ballmer is jealous. Fair enough. But saying that Android is hard to use goes beyond sanity. Something that Mr. Ballmer tends to do pretty regularly.

Big Wheel For Adults

I need one of these! It is a Big Wheel for adults. It has a Harley-Davidson V-Twin engine and can reach 50 mph.

The 'Green Machine' only costs $75,000. :-)

A computer virus infected the systems that run the Predator Drones.

Not funny but yes, the system was running on the Windows platform. :-)

Very Sad Day

Steve Jobs (1955-2011) passed away today due to a chronic medial condition. It is a very sad day indeed. No one embodies passion for technology like Steve Jobs. When everyone else said that he would fail, he held true to his vision and principles above everything else.

Steve Jobs will go down in history as the most inspiring technology visionary of all time!

RIP Steve Jobs!
