Lions, and Tiger Penis, and Bears oh...What?

My fiance has recently been going through some of her old childhood toys and we found this tiger figurine that is anatomically incorrect. Obviously someone making the mold either had a demented sense of humor or was misinformed in regards to the physical make-up of a tiger. What is especially interesting about his jungle cat is that its penis is circumcised.

The Man Behind Those Loud Chords

I really enjoyed Inception last year. I especially enjoyed the theme that was written for the film. Surprisingly it was not recorded by a symphony, but rather by one guy and a computer. This short expose on composer Zach Hemsey show just what digital music composers can accomplish.

Real Freedom=Real Fries.

Despite the apparent lack freedom when it comes to the web or the violations being committed by the TSA,it is nice to know that our fast food is still free. In fact Sarah Palin believes a free country should allow its citizens to eat anything they damn choose. I saw these lovelies at the Chilton County Fair here in Alabama. I am so sure that our Forefathers would be so proud. Maybe Mrs. Palin could take these to a day care to teach the kids about freedom.

I'm on a solar sail boat.....

Last year I made a post about Michio Kaku's book Physics of the Impossible. In the chapter concerning inter-stellar travel, he delves into one possibility that involves using solar sails to propel a spacecraft. The benefit of this being the ship would not require a source of power that would expire. Conceptually, a a solar sail would fit on the front of a spacecraft and absorb photons that would propel it forward. Theoretically over time it would build momentum and ensure a long flight for the spacecraft to help it reach the farthest reaches of our universe and boldly go where no man has gone before. Yes, it does sound like science fiction, but tomorrow it will be making strides to becoming science fact. Tomorrow the Japanese will be launching two satellites powered by solar sails, name Daedalus and Icarus. You can read the full article here, but let us hope that results of these two satellites yield the necessary information to improve space travel. It is not long before we can begin to enjoy happy hour at Mos Eisly.

Canned Unicorn Meat....that is all.

Tired of the same old tuna, spam, and other canned meats of the non-fantastical variety? Well, you should consider trying some Unicorn Meat. These little guys, according to their description are treated much like Kobe cows, promptly being messaged and given Guinness to fatten them up. These majestic creatures are pampered right up to the point of candy-ization, when their now fatty bodies are blended with their candied horn and bones. They are then canned and sold straight from Ireland. You can buy some here.
