    Camera Tossing
    Posted by Ran


    Apparantly there’s a new (read: new to me) phenomenon called “camera tossing”. Yes, it’s exactly what it sounds like. Basically you press the shutter on your camera and then toss it into the air. You might end up with some interesting and trippy images depending on how you spin and twirl the camera for your toss. Just make sure to catch it. See more interesting results on their Flickr group.

    1. It’s easy to tie.
    2. It stays tied - always.
    3. It’s as easy to untie as pulling on a string.

    English is a crazy language
    Posted by E-dizzle

    An interesting essay I just read about the English language written by Charlie Indelicato, cleverly written and poignant.

    Let’s face it — English is a crazy language. There is no egg in eggplant
    nor ham in hamburger; neither apple nor pine in pineapple. English muffins
    weren’t invented in England or French fries in France. Sweetmeats are
    candies while sweetbreads, which aren’t sweet, are meat.

    We take English for granted. But if we explore its paradoxes, we find that
    quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square and a guinea pig is
    neither from Guinea nor is it a pig.

    There’s no audio to this clip. But the JXL I have provided does a rather good job as the accompanying music. Maybe it’s because the video was sped up.
