It is the view from Bryce Point in Bryce Canyon National Park in Utah. It consists of 196 separate photographs taken with a 6 megapixel digital camera, and then stitched together into one seamless composite. |

- Everything is collectible. Here's a collection of tissue box covers. I've been collecting these since around 1997 or so. I bought some of them from mail order catalogs, but I really started buying alot of them when I saw how many different WEIRD kinds of tissue covers there were on ebay . I saw one that I liked, then there was another one that I couldn't pass up, and it sort of mushroomed from there. |

- BlogShares is no more. It's been an interesting and very rewarding nine months bringing a bit of entertainment to bloggers (and blog lovers)... My goal with the project was always to embrace the power law and to provide a new way of highlighting blogs with a little bit of fun. I've been pleasantly surprised of how well it did and stupefied it did it for so long. Now, however, it is time to move on to other things. |

Swearsaurus (Dec 03 2003 18:55 GMT) - At Swearsaurus, you can learn how to swear in 131 languages. Swear words and phrases are dysphemisms. A dysphemism - the exact opposite of a euphemism - is a means of expressing something considered offensive, harsh, crude, rude, taboo or embarrassing in a particular culture in terms that maximize its offensive impact. It is language used as a weapon; not neutralized, pacified and waved as a white flag. |

Goat Beer (Dec 03 2003 18:55 GMT) - Here's a nice collection of beer bottles that feature a picture of a goat. These are all bock beer labels, and this type of beer is almost always associated with goats. Why? Because "bock" is actually the German word for "billy goat" and, thus, bock beer labels and signage have almost always incorporated images of goats. Is that true? |
