Consumer Spending and Inflation Pie Chart
|
All we hear on the news is rumblings about gas prices and inflation. Want to see a neat little breakdown of the what the average American consumer buys and how prices on those categories have fared versus one year ago? Check out this neat Consumer Spending and Inflation Pie Chart. Eggs have rocketed up 30% and bananas are up 15%. How about dental services and plane tickets?

HMMM:
Knuckle Tattoo Gallery
|
This site has been collecting pictures of knuckle tattoos, often with a few words from the owners. I've always thought you had to have a perfect mix of dedication and crazy in you to get a knuckle tattoo. It's a neat view into that world.

HMMM:
Underground Temple in Italy Made Public
|
One day some guy has a vision to start digging under his house. With a little help and 16 years of work, they carved out and built a secret underground temple. Check out the pictures on this one - the level of artistic detail is incredible.

HMMM:
Double-Jaw Eel (Video)
|
This species of eel has two jaws, one of which extends from its throat to snatch at captured prey. It's a bit like the movie "Aliens." There was an article with more info, but watching this ten second video is all you really need to see.

HMMM:
Fantastic Beatboxing
|
Check out this guy from the 2006 French Beatboxing Championship. I think part of what makes him so amazing is his level of detail for all the little background sounds that occur in a natural drum beat, not just the initial hit on a kick or snare. Here's the part two video, in case you don't see it linked from the first Youtube page. Do you think they added a little reverb to his mic?

HMMM:
Hallucinate Without Drugs
|
Wow, this is crazy. Open up this Strobe animation and stare at it for 20 or so seconds. Then turn and look around the room, or at another web page.
Oh, and I promise this is not some shock fakeout trick. Just a neat visual effect with your eyeballs.

HMMM:
Creepy Photo Retouching Gallery
|
Check out this gallery of somewhat Creepy Photo Retouching. Hover your mouse over the big image to see the non-retouched original version. I know some people that are extremely talented retouchers and it's a skill I certainly don't have!

HMMM:
DialIdol American Idol Elimination Predictions
|
I'm not a big American Idol fanboy, but I usually hear/see most of it while my wife watches it on TiVo. She pointed out this Dial Idol site, which attempts to predict the voting results based on how often the various voting phone numbers are busy during the few hours of voting each night. Neat idea. I've been refreshing the page a few times and it appears to update very quickly. I'm a sucker for live stats - just wait until baseball season starts!

HMMM:
Pilot, Passengers Foil Hijacking Attempt
|
Worth the quick read if only for the next move made by the flight attendants after the guy fell. The guy was probably happy to be alive when the cops eventually showed up.

HMMM:
Cars Sliding on Crazy Portland Ice
|
You have to feel kinda bad for some of car owners on this video, but man...that's some crazy ice in Portland. That red minivan is sliding entirely sideways without any noticable friction!

HMMM:
Fresh Whole Rabbit at
Amazon.com
$30
|
This is NOT the bunny to get the kids for Easter. Yes, Amazon even sells this Fresh Whole Rabbit. Is "nutty aftertaste" a selling point? Check our the comedic user reviews, especially the one titled "This is how they get you".
Need more? Fill out your menu with this canned Exotic Meats Gift Set. Mmm...smoked rattlesnake.

HMMM:
Ultimate Pwned Video
|
What do you get when someone pieces together hundreds of internet-famous (and otherwise) short clips of people being idiots, sports hits, and general cringe-worthy material? This video.
And when you've had enough of the accidents, cool down with this collection of people who narrowly avoided a few and are Lucky to Be Alive. Includes flipping rally cars. I bet one guy in there has planted a few trees to pay them back.

HMMM:
Sheets of Paper into 3D Art
|
This guy takes one standard A4 sheet of paper and uses scissors, glue, and a lot of folding to make it into 3D art, often with a side emphasis on the negative space left behind. The level of detail is amazing.

HMMM:
Making Life Easier
|
I found this topic on Making Life Easier over at MetaFilter to be thought-provoking. As for me, I follow the Two Minute Rule (although I've yet to read the book). What time saving and life chilling techniques help you out on a regular basis?- "Two Minute Rule: if there's anything you absolutely must do that you can do right now in two minutes or less, then do it now, thus freeing up your time and mind tenfold over the long term."
Now, if you'll excuse me, I really should clean up all these slips of paper in front of my keyboard.

HMMM:
High Pitched Ringtone
|
Condensed version: Guy makes device to drive punk teens out of store with a high-pitched sound that most adults can't hear. Smart teen records sample and uses it as a "silent" ringtone.
Okay, so maybe I should have posted this when I first saw the story a month ago. But now that the New York Times did a writeup, there is an MP3 sample of the file. Even cooler is this link to a page of several high-pitched samples. Where does your hearing ability top out? Post your results in the Talk Back section. Oh, and have fun with your pets - my cat was looking curiously at the speakers during my trials.
