Smooch

Close one...

Or why watching rally car racing shouldn't be a spectator sport.

Fun with construction equipment

This ride should probably be called the "Dislocated Shoulders."

From the hit Japanese show "Owl Taunting"

A bit long, but worth watching even if you don't speak Japanese.

WOO-HOO!

150 million years ago...

...your cousin was a kangaroo.

This cat is unimpressed by robotic vacuum technology...


Or possibly VERY impressed... Cat emotions are sometimes hard to read.

LIFE magazine photos


LIFE magazine has a photo archive on Google with pictures dating back to the 1750s.

Ants! Ants! Ants!

This is kind of long, but really damn fascinating...

Say "cheese"

Here's a picture of the Earth taken from four billion miles away.



If you're having trouble spotting it -- it's the speck on the right side a little lower than half way down.

Swim, penguin, swim!


It all works out...

Are you freaking out yet? You are aren't you?

I've never seen an aurora...

Not in person, that is.



There are a bunch of pictures of Antarctica here. They are pants-shittingly good. Yes, I said it.

Congrats President Obama!

Let the blog celebration start NOW!





Cats love firemen

Or at least they should...

Many more cats being saved by firemen here.

Find the octopus...

To me the amazing part of this is that the octopus changes shape, not just color. Check out the edge of its head (I think it's the head) as it morphs.

A reminder...

Make sure your octopus doesn't get bored.



From Telegraph.co.uk:
An octopus has caused havoc in his aquarium by performing juggling tricks using his fellow occupants, smashing rocks against the glass and turning off the power by short circuiting a lamp.

Prepare to have your mind blown!


It's blown isn't it?
