What amazing news! I can't believe they found a living baby mammoth! Imagine my disappointment when I read the article to find it was a 40,000+ year old FROZEN mammoth. Damn you headline writer! This morning I noticed that all the other news sites are using the qualifiers "Frozen", "Well Preserved", or "Stinking, Rotting, Corpse". OK, maybe I made the last one up.

If you like the Beastie Boys and this sort of thing interests you, they have a new flickr site where they are posting pictures from their current tour.
As I mentioned Beelzebub in my last entry, I decided to look up Beelzebub on wikipedia. On the entry they have this cool picture:
This picture is a reference to Beelzebub's title of Lord of the Flies. Apparently this picture comes from a book entitled, "Dictionnaire Infernal". Awesomely, the "Dictionnaire Infernal" is a book on demonology that was published in 1818. The book sounds like it is an encyclopedia of demons. It sounds like it would be a cool book to read.
I was introduced to this cool song from the podcast Net@Nite. It's called "Code Monkey" by Jonathan Coulton. It's a really great tune and has awesome geek lyrics. It makes me feel better as I am coding in SQL as I listen to it.

One of my favorite moblog sites is Detroitfunk. This guy goes around and takes pictures of Detroit. He has a great eye and his pictures capture the beauty and sadness of the decaying city. These pictures were recently posted and caught my eye. I love mosaic tile. Click the link above to look at all his pics.
"GeekMan is 6 inches tall, made from plastic, and comes with 5 accessories (his weapons of wisdom and tech gadgetry). Now that Ken is out of the picture, have Geekman take Barbie out for a really fun time. They could go to the library or the a Star Trek convention!
* Geeky Glasses (the Geek Visual Input Device) * Handheld Computer / PDA (attaches magnetically to GeekMan�s Waist) * Notebook Computer / Laptop (the Cerebral I/O Device) * Coffee Mug (to re-energize super powers) * Wristwatch * The 15-centimetre tall bespectacled, pocket-protector-wearing Geekman action figure is known for his "ungodly coding abilities," "opposite sex repulsion" and "less than ideal personal hygiene routine." Yoohoo! * It seems some losers are offended by the above description. They claim to find it offensive. Well, Get a life! This is a freakin' toy....it's fun and makes a great gift! If you don't like it, then shut your computer. We are real Geeks....and we are proud of it. If you can't take a joke, go home and have your mommie rub your back!"
