Newton isn’t really a kitten, but he is cute. Anyway, I got a new video camera and all I’ve done with it so far is shoot closeups of a cat. Is that why I got it? At least it’s not as bad as this.
Music is Jungle Struttin’, by The Lions.
David Lynch doesn’t like the iPhone. At all. At least not for watching movies. Maybe the guy doesn’t take the subway much.

Mehran Karimi Nasseri, Sanjay Shah and Alex Ervasti all made their names living in airports. Now, comedian Mark Malkoff is hoping his one week stay at the Paramus, NJ Ikea store will do the same.

I saw this bike here, here, and here on Flickr, but nobody said what it was or where I could learn more. Some googling revealed it was Eric Staller’s ConferenceBike, first sold by Hemmacher Schlemmer. One person steers while all seven riders peddle, and it looks like a lot of fun if you’ve got a [...]
