That's Not How You Do It! (Random Story 1)
Hello, my name is Bubkis! I like to eat squirrel poo on the weekends. I have five sisters; Cindy, Rose, Jill, Liz and Belany. And that's my brother, Bug. He's a bug. He also has an extra toe on the tops of his webbed feet. He likes collecting dust mites so he can make a scale model of eBay headquarters. Someday I'm going to move to Eugene, Oregon and open my own camera shop so I can show people how to bust a move. There's a hole in my bed where I like to put creamed corn and raspberries. I call RasperCorn! It tastes like happy. My mom is sick so she has to drink lots of cough medicine. Then she gets angry and throws my pewter figurines at my sisters. Ok, well I have to go teach my pet fly how to do long division. Kbye!

The Magic of High-Speed Photography
High-speed photography really is a wonderful thing. You can capture a simple everyday occurrence, and see the magic of the world right before your very eyes. Millisecond after millisecond.
It has become an art. Trying to capture the most abstract, beautiful moments that happen naturally in every day life. Some people manage to find some of the most magnificent still moments.
There truly are no words to describe the emotions these pictures evoke. You just have to see it for yourself.
The one photo that I'm most taken by is this. It is so surreal. From the one selected moment in time of this one specific event, whatever it may have been, a scene that seems unnatural. It looks as if it were one of those modern abstract desktop wallpaper art scenes, but it isn't it's simply a still in nature.
Please, check it out!

The First FPT (First-Person Tetris)
Regular Tetris just doesn't cut it these days. We need a challenge! For us real Tetris players, this is very refreshing. I've spent hours, hell even days of my life just playing Tetris, so I need a good challenge like this every once in a while.
Not only that but it just gets me that its the original NES Tetris in a setting most old school gamers are familiar with. My onw experiences are slightly different, though, since I started out with a Sega Genesis/Megadrive. The empty room/apartment where a crappy little Toshiba sits on the floor. An unprogrammed JVC VCR rests on top with the lights flashing. Some video tapes are sprawled atop the VCR. Some store bought, some bootlegged TV shows and/or home movies. And to top the whole scene off, a small plant sits, adding atmosphere to the classic gaming scene.
Enjoy!

Reptile So Small It Can Fit on a Pencil Top
Oh, my God.
Pardon the constant posting of science/animal stories, but this one is just plain fascinating.
It is simply mind blowing that there is such a vast amount of species being discovered. That is all aside from what actually exists out in some of the undiscovered parts of the world. There may even be a group of human being whom have never known of the existence of other human life.
To think that just in one little area in the world there are such strange forms of animals we know today. A gecko small than the eraser on a pencil. A transparent frog you can see its beating heart among other working organs! A snake whose head and eyes are much larger than we are used to that can siphon its victims from their shells. The list just goes on!
The fact that all things adapt to their environment for optimal survival is all you need to know to figure out that there are too many species of animals for the human mind to even fathom. It is just a crying shame human-kind won't have the opportunity to view all the beauties and wonders of the Earth.
The world has been around for billions and billions of years. Enduring so many ice ages and everything in-between. There are trillions and trillions of species in our time. There had to be just as much (if not more) in each era. So does that mean human beings existed in those times as well?
Okay. I'm getting in far too over my head. I could theorize and hypothesize for hours on end.
And with that, I bid you all good night.

Sheep Gives Birth to Human-faced Lamb
Interesting...
It's a shame it died before any research could be conducted on it!
Now, the story about the goat from Zimbabwe really pisses me off. I understand a little village in Zimbabwe doesn't exactly have the most scientifically curious individuals in the world. And it's a damn shame. If scientists could get their hands on that goat before the people killed it and burnt its body, I'm sure the results would be more complex and interesting than bestiality. Even if bestiality were the result, the genetic makeup had to help make some sort of scientific advancement knowing a goat's and a human's genetics actually interacted with one another. I only hope another one of these..."creatures" are given birth in the near future. I want to know whether this is an every day genetic mutation (i.e. more/less ligaments, two heads, etc.) or there is some other explanation.

Welcome!
Welcome all to my blog! Here's post number one! I'm going to just write whatever the hell comes to my mind first. So let's hope some good comes of this.
