Today's Mighty Oak


Couple quick things, and I’ll be back real soon with more (I think Google Reader is eating some of my saved items, so I need to get through them real quick!):

This comes from the Maddow Blog, not sure if it’s is real or not (I’m guessing not), but fun nonetheless:

 

It looks like we finally have the official Zelda timeline.  Gamers knew it existed, but I honestly never thought we’d see it.  I’m hoping the book this comes from gets translated and released in America.  Check it out here.

So, it turns out that Santorum may or may not have acted illegally to get a sought-after endorsement.  I don’t know enough about campaign finance law.  But the other story is that he had a million dollars in his war chest.  Who knew?

It always amazes me how different sockets are around the world, here’s a handy guide:

First up, Top Men over at whoba! have some great posts.  First up, living room projection mapping, followed by architectural projection mapping, and finally The Eyes Have it.

This looks fun:

The bastardization of corporate logos by using Comic Sans.

Amazing ad that was put up for the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. Not sure how much air time it got on TV, but I hope it got a lot!

 

I don’t think I’d want to be the one taunting the cat with the food, but cool to watch:

Amazing (accidental) optical illusion:

 

I feel as though something’s wrong here.  And it’s a shame:

Big 3-D street art by Reebok:

Everyone’s favorite (or favorite to hate) Kiwi church is back at it, check out their new billboard here.

 Well now it makes sense:

 

I’m a lawyer, I’m on a billboard”  Click through only if you want your mind to explode.

And finally, an stunning bus ad:

That’s it for now, but I’ll be back real soon with more!

 



Just like my last entry were items left over from my humor section of Google Reader, this time, the videos and articles come from my appropriately named “Dork” section.

First up, really awesome bicycle animation:

Next up, if you have not seen the new Muppets movie, go directly out to see it.  Then read and watch this awesome article about Mahna Mahna.

Some fun on Black Friday:

And finally, coming back to Earth:



Now that November is done, I’m finally catching up with my RSS feeds and some other items from around the net.

Here’s the humor items I had waiting for me, I’ll be back soon with lots more:

From Literally Unbelievable:

 

Yes, turning on Fox will help….

And here’s some great racism:

 

And coming in from Amazon:

 

And I really loved this one:

 

And from Catalog Living, check out this amazing entry.

And finally, The Oatmeal pops in with some illustrated tweets, a favorite:

 



Once again, I’m participating in National Novel Writing Month.  Usually I put up an image that shows my current wordcount and how close I am to the goal of 50,000 words (hint: I’m usually behind).  This year, NaNoWriMo changed websites, so they don’t have that up and running quite yet.  In the meantime, if you’re wondering, you can check out my writer stats here.

Posts will be a little thin this month as I try to once again win, and I’ll be running to write-ins (already been to two as well as the kick-off party), but fear not, I’ll be back soon, I have a lot of stuff to share!

Word-count widgets are working!  Here you go:
