    A certain deli container within a certain lizard terrarium | 8/5/18 | Me, Myself, & I
    Two more little critters entered the world today. They were long anticipated, but at last they're here. They are my Tucson Banded Gecko babies. A tiny nocturnal species, TBGs have wide variation in their markings, but are generally a vanilla yellowish background color with chocolate colored transverse bands and chocolate colored spots. They are up to 5 inches in total length, of which up to half may be tail. Their range includes Arizona, New Mexico, and parts of northern Mexico. Their scales are so tiny that you really can't make them out farther than a couple inches, giving the lizard...

    New York Times ^ | 07/01/2018 | By Marc Stein and Scott Cacciola
    The biggest name in basketball is headed to Hollywood. Through a short news release issued by his agents at Klutch Sports, LeBron James announced at 8:05 p.m. Sunday night that he would join the Los Angeles Lakers in free agency and sign a four-year, $154 million contract. In what has become an every-four-years ritual for the three-time N.B.A. champion, James has chosen to switch teams for the third time in his career, opting to leave his home-state Cleveland Cavaliers for a second time and join one of the league’s glamour franchises. James took to Instagram to say goodbye to Cavaliers...

    One of man's most wretched creations gets its karmic comeuppance. Using a port-a-potty is about as enjoyable as brushing your teeth with gravel. Half outhouse, half torture chamber, the rudimentary bathroom option is usually weirdly hot, emits a revolting smell, and induces claustrophobia. Port-a-potties have also provided the setting for one too many horror stories. We all know this, and yet we're still forcing human beings to use the plastic poop prisons in various public places. They are, if nothing else, unnecessarily vile creations, which is why watching some get swept away in a wind storm is both terrifying and...

  • What if the Moon was split in half?

    If you simply flew up into space and sawed the moon in half with a giant hacksaw, most likely, nothing would happen. This is because gravitational force would hold the two halves together, sort of like a couple of magnets. But what if you were able to get a couple of giant crowbars and put a person on the other side and then count to 3 and totally separate the two halves of the moon? With enough strength applied, you could theoretically push the two halves far enough apart where the gravitational force no longer pulls them together and now...

  • Highway overpasses look smaller when you are underneath

    I was thinking of this when driving home | April 26, 2018 | Me
    When you are under a highway overpass like the one above, it is hard to believe there are 6 lanes of traffic overhead like the one below. When you are driving on the highway, it seems very wide and you don't even realize when you are going over a bridge (overpass). But if you were to go under the overpass and look up, you would be surprised how narrow tha strip actually is.

    The Telegraph ^ | 4/16/18 | LAURA CORLEY
    A confrontation over a parking space at a Macon restaurant escalated into an all-out brawl that ended in the arrest of a 71-year-old woman, according to a Bibb County sheriff deputy’s report. Cellphone footage of the incident Saturday night shows a scene of people lunging and slapping each other inside the Cheddar’s Scratch Kitchen. Before deputies arrested Judy James Tucker, she told them that the incident “started over a parking spot” and it was “because she was white and it was a race issue,” the deputy’s write-up said.
