Summer Days are Coming to an End

Hopefully their readers are not looking at this magazine at night!

The end of summer is almost here...can you tell I've been busy? I haven't done a new blog entry in ages (oops!). I have had a lot of quality time indoors this summer...when you live in Antelope Valley where temps in the 100s are the norm, you learn very quickly to stay out of the sun.

However, you need the sun to appreciate this magazine ad...it is solar activated (how cool is that?!?). I don't know what inks/paper they use to pull this off, but it is really cool.

Just make sure you are wearing sunscreen when you are looking at it!

Benchmarks

If I was anywhere near New York City, I would definitely attend!

June 10th - Aug. 15th

Watch Out Mac Users!!

It was a normal morning. I was drinking my tea while checking my email, and then a screen popped up claiming that I had viruses and I needed to do something about it. Whoa, I've never seen anything like this on my Mac...and I could tell something was up because it didn't look quite right....

They must've uses some advanced Javascript or something, because it appeared to actually be "scanning" my computer.

Whatever you do, do not click on it!!!

Did this happen to anyone else? It looked like it was my mail program, but was actually a spyware program running through Safari. I guess Macs are not immune to threats, just be careful what you click on, and your computer will be fine!

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful holiday weekend!!

Tax Day Art

What should you do with all of the leftover paper after filing your taxes? Turn it into a work of art! (Hey, if you have to keep these records for seven years, they might as well serve a purpose and look pretty).

Check out these paper sculptures from Nava Lubelski:

Cool.

This piece is titled "1997 Tax File". I wish doing my taxes was this beautiful.

Like Movies?? Play this Fun Game!

I got a link to this game in an email newsletter from Veer. My final score was 38 out of 50. There were some I thought that I knew, but I just couldn't think of the title!! Click here to try your luck (I bet you can't beat me!)

Ok, here are the rules: You get 60 second to guess a movie title based on three shock photos having to do with the plot. It sounds easy, but some of them are pretty difficult.

Here are a few examples:

"Hello Clarice..." Can you figure out this one?

If you get this one correct, I'll do the truffle shuffle.

I couldn't figure this one out...any suggestions??

April Fools!

Happy April Fool's Day!

Check out this funny (and dorky) prank toy from Think Geek...

Haha! So many kids would want this toy! I like the mini iPads :)
