There is No Such Thing as Too Soon

Oh man this is great:

Defiantly a win and not a fail.

Terrifying Surgical Gadgets of the Past

SurgicalTechnologists.net recently had a new post titled "20 Scary Old School Surgical Tools," and oh god are they scary! Reading every description of what the tool was used for made me cringe at the horrors of imagining it being used on me. Holy shit just typing this is giving me the shivers! Here are some of the crazier ones:

Tonsil Guillotine (1860s)
This method of removing tonsils worked much like a traditional guillotine, slicing off the infected tonsils. This "double guillotine" design meant that both tonsils could be removed at the same time. Tonsil guillotines were replaced by forceps and scalpels in the early 20th century due to the high rate of hemorrhaging and the imprecise nature of the device, which often left tonsil remnants in the mouth.Trephine (1800s)
This trephine was a hand-powered drill with a cylindrical blade that was used to bore into the skull. The spike in the center was used to start the procedure and to hold the blade in place while cutting.

Hemorrhoid Forceps (1800s)
These forceps were used to grasp a hemorrhoid between the blades and apply pressure to stop the blood supply, causing the hemorrhoid to drop off.

Which One is the Android???

Boing Boing Gadgets recently posted the cover from the Christian Science Monitor which is quite fascinating. I glanced back and forth and finally made my decision off of the eyes. The one on the left is staring blankly downwards while the one on the right is making eye contact with the other one, so my guess is that the one on the left is the robot. What if they both were, or they were both humans! Its amazing how far our roboticists and artificial intelligence technology have come. These seemingly ridiculous movies like i Robot and others could be what our future is actually like.

One of the Best FAILs I've Seen in a While

I was laughing out loud really hard

The Bare Essentials to Flying with Air New Zealand

I am ashamed to say that I didn't get this video the first time that I watched it. It's staring you in the face the entire time. This is the pre-lift off video that is played on the Planes of New Zealand Air, and they add quite a bit of humor to it in the form of one joke that is hard to catch. See if you can catch on to it.

Node, The Power Outlet of Tomorrow

This new concept, innovated by an Asian designer that I couldn't find the name of, is the outlet of the future. It allows as many plugs as you can fit to be inserted into the wall, and it acts as a surge protector with an on off switch being in the middle of the wall socket. Very cool stuff.

You can see more HERE, albeit it is in some Asian language.

Insane Trick Stots

Vector Effect

This is one of the best flash games that I have played in a while. Its made to be a flash version of the xbox 360 game titled Geometry Wars. I've been playing it all day at work.

Back 2 Buisness - Buzz Aldrin is so Gangsta!

Sorry for the lack of posts in the last week. I was in Iowa visiting my father's side of the family learning to ride a dirt bike (the most fun thing ever. hands down), fishing, and drinking responsibly and maturely which is no where near as fun as binge drinking. All in all it was a nice week off but I'm glad to be back home. Work still blows though!

I'll try and do a couple of posts for the first few days this week to make up for my absence.


Here is a behind the scenes movie about the recording of Buzz Aldrin's debut into the hip hop world. Yes, the Buzz Aldrin that you are thinking of.

Nothing can beat Snoop D-O-Double-G saying "Buzz Aldrin is so Gangsta!"
