eBay has it all

I already knew that you can get pretty much anything on eBay, from the odd to the downright weird. Thanks to Rebecca Watson, of SkepChick and Skeptic’s Guide to the Universe fame, I now know that my perception of eBay is wrong: You can’t get “pretty much” everything, you can get everything—up to and including frauds made to order! Rebecca explains:

The hilarious, yet depressing, thing about all of this is that eBay took down Rebecca’s auction. I highly recommend you read the conversation she had with eBay support about it.

Chain of Protection explains how herd immunity works with a simple, colourful illustration video.

Via Bad Astronomy, who aren’t fooled by the people who hate vaccinations so much they would rather have children die of easily preventable diseases.

Off That (Rationalist Anthem)

I don’t like rap. Never have. It just doesn’t tickle my music enjoyment lobe.

I will, however, make a nice, big exception for this song.

voxopolis

Voxopolis is a “3D city engine based on Conway’s Game of Life” and is so very, very cool.

So, when can I use this to generate cities for my D&D campaign?

I arrived safely in Norway on tuesday, and I have lots of photos for you. Unfortunately I brought home a nasty stomach bug too, and once I stopped puking the nearly-inevitable plane flu hit me—not leaving me with much energy for sorting all those photos.

Oh, if only I had a bottle of Bruce’s Juice! That would surely fix me right up!

I’ll get back to you once my nose stops producing snot by the bucket-load.

Hurra Torpedo!

I have a bruised knee, I’m wearing a band t-shirt, and I have beer in my hair. I have been to the first concert of Hurra Torpedo’s 2010 world tour, and I have pictures!

In fact, I have videos!

There are plenty of other videos on YouTube showing off the wonderful insanity of Hurra Torpedo. You should go have a look!

Like I said, these guys are going on a world tour—their last world tour! Go see them while you can!
