More reasons why I like Iceland

I don't know who sings this song that starts off with "Cold Water..." But it is a bit eerie as the photos come off of Iceland and the highlands. Some of this land is lost due to the Kárahnjúkur dam filling in an area in eastern Iceland to bring another Alcoa aluminum smelting plant to eastern Iceland.

Why I like Iceland

This video by Nylon who are from Iceland. They are climbing the British Pop Charts. It's nice to have some music from there that isn't Bjork or Sigur Ros.

But this is why I like Iceland, first, the girls there aren't so hard on the eyes. Second they shot this while travelling all over Iceland.

Skogafoss is one of the locations! Iceland what a beautiful country!

Sesame Street Sings NWA

The residents of Sesame Street sing the NWA classic "F*ck the Police" in this cute music video. You should know it's NSFW (nor safe for kids) as Bert & Ernie drop multiple F-bombs.

How well do you care for your own bed? Do you jump onto it? Do you rotate it regularly? How old is it? How much did you spend on it? How elaborate is your beddings and linens? Feel free to answer the other questions, but the real question in mind is DO YOU JUMP ON YOUR BED???

I was posting in the other bed thread and was reminded of bedjump.com

some good ones...




I don't jump on my bed, there's a ceiling fan too so low head room! I don't put my shoes on the bed. No outside clothes on the bed either.

At one time I walked into a linen store saw the display and said, "I'll take the whole thing from pillows to duvet cover." It set me back about $800 but it was an awesome bed set with about 8 pillows, some foam, some down, some mixed.

Suddenly the Castle is in Color!!!

Okay, this is pretty odd. You look at an odd color of the picture, and then it shows you a black and white, and BOOM! You see it in color.

He gives a tutorial on how to do this. There are even other links of people doing the same thing with other pictures

Welcome!!!

I'd like to welcome to the blogroll Rytur. He's been a good close friend of mine for several years now. I had been asking him to post some of the wonderful emails he sends around into a blog for a while now and he's finally taken the plunge.

This origins of Plagiarist stem from the original Plagiarist, which was fun while it lasted. Look into some of the history there and you'll find some interesting links, articles, and commentary.

I may even plagiarize my old stuff and repost it up here!

Thanks for reading.

Pikasso

Picked up from ideaseek

Pikasso


Four necks. Two sound holes. 42 strings. Two access doors; one on the upper player's side and one at the tail block.Created by luthier Linda Manzer for guitarist Pat Metheny, the instrument took 2 years to build (approximately 1000 hours), and when the 42 strings are strung up to high tension, the Pikasso is under approximately 1000 lbs pressure. It weighs 6.7 kg or 14 3/4 lbs. The body is tapered so that the side closest to the player is thinner than the side that rests on the players knee, thus leaning the top back towards the player for a more aerial view. This is also more comfortable under the player's arm.
