Calculator video camera
I remember the time in high school when calculators only functioned as those dumb 12-digit arithmetic machines good for typing S8008 then flipping the thing over. Well, that was until we got hold of graphing calculators which we hacked and programmed to be our ultimate geektool. Yup, we even used it for our Christian morality classes. Hehehe. Anyway, now I just wish we had this baby back then – the Calculator Video Camera. It is...
Unsugoi: Dragonball’s flesh-colored Piccolo
This officially makes it the next step towards Apocalypse. Dragonball has just release screenie teasers of how Lord Piccolo would look in the live-action Dragonball movie and, by gawd, it looks awful. Horrible. Appalling.

For those unfamiliar with the name, he’s the man behind the voice of many of the movie trailers and commercials we’ve seen in our time. Irony of all ironies, the guy died from...
Make your kid into a plushie without taxidermy
When I first read the headline, I thought this was in the lines of the features on fetus soups that got circulated years ago. Watching too many psycho crime dramas made me think of taxidermy and kids. Thank goodness this wasn’t so. Though I still ask why the heck would parents want to have stuffed animal versions of their kids. Probably this has the same appeal as dressing kids up in cuddly and cute animal costumes for Halloween...
