cone of plenty
The watercone is an portable
solar-powered desalination device. Just put sea water in the pan and
let it evaporate in the sun. The cone has a trough around the bottom
edge to collect the clean water and the tip unscrews to let you pour
it out into a drinking vessel. A simple solution to an age-old problem.

pole? look no further.

pinball machine search engine
I'm so glad that this website
already exists, so I'm not forced to create one myself. They've
indexed 4,808 different games and the scope of the project is very
impressive.

knots landing
I will knot is a really cool
website that teaches you to tie different knots. Each not has step
by step instructions and uses inline flash video clips to demonstrate
the steps. Gripping stuff if you're a nerd like me.

the top 25
I couldn't afford to get one of those fancy animated coverpop things I
blogged about recently, so I made a poor man's version with the help
of my old buddy Perl. Below is a list generated from the top 25 best selling graphic novels in the past 3 months at Hijinx, in order of sales. It's a good mix of all ages and mature readers material, both new and old. Click on the thumbnail image if you'd like to see a bigger version. Enjoy!

the fictional 15
Our old pal Uncle Scrooge clocked in at #6 in the
Forbes Fictional 15, the money mag's list of
the 15 richest fictional characters. I won't spoil the whole list,
but Forbes says Uncle Scrooge has more dough than Bruce Wayne, but
not as much as Lex Luthor. My sources say Scrooge is actually the
richest, but he's better at hiding it from the IRS!
