Check out this article about brain sex. No, it's not about zombie food play, but rather the peculiar connections we make with people when our dual interests intersect.

Dancers Among Us

A photo stream of dancers striking poses in everyday NYC locations.

This combines SO MANY WONDERFUL THINGS.

I absolutely adore this photoshop. It is entitled "Sierra Road". Massive points if you get the reference, massiver points if you can name one or more of these characters, massivest points if you can name them all. I fall into the latterest category, but then again, I am a massive nerd of the video gaming kind.

Oh, and even more massively massive mastodon points if you know who Roberta Williams is.

Bang a drum for the sinners
Bang a drum for the sins
Bang a drum for the losers
And those who win
Bang a drum, bang it loudly
Or as soft as you need
Bang a drum for yourself son
And a drum for me

This looks like a fun and efficient way to be that kid sitting alone in the cafeteria.

I have yet other problems with this design, other than its awe-inspiring nerdiness (how often does one find a beacon of dork-dom for sale that peers out at the neighborhood at tree level, as if to say, "YES, I AM A GIGANTIC DWEEB, AND YES, I WILL FORCIBLY PASS THIS ON TO MY CHILDREN.")

Problems:

1. I am perplexed as to how that 2 1/2 foot tall child climbed onto a swing three feet of the ground. Let's not even discuss the impossibility of an infant mounting a free-moving pendulum from the side.

2. In turn, I have severe doubts that a child that age could stay on that thing. Is there even a seat indentation? He'd honestly have more luck bare-backing the retriever,

3. I never took physics, but small tent pole legs + hollow plastic top with fat children + rocking force of the swing = command tower to yard plummet. The force will certainly be with them when their faces meet the ground. I hope Rover knows how to set a shattered eye socket.
