It's hammer time

Go for the juggler
My wife watches those home improvement shows from time -- you know the ones where they completely remodel a house in three days for a mere 75 bucks -- but I don’t get roped in. But maybe I would pay a little more attention if they occasionally threw in/up something like this. (Thanks Edwin)

Card-iac kid
Bryan Berg, the acknowledged inventor of cardstacking on the grand scale, embarked on a month-long project with The Texas State Fair to create a new Guinness World Record for the World's Tallest House of Playing Cards. No tape, glue, or other tricks -- just 1,800 decks of freestanding playing cards (and some scaffolding) to finish this 25-foot tower.

All the crap in my wallet
Speaking of lots of cards, some men seem to believe that the bulk and heft of their wallets is a direct reflection of their manhood, stuffing them full of every receipt, ticket and scrap of paper that passes through their hands. But when the time comes that there's no more room for money, a cleanout is required. This dude thought that documenting all the crap that he fished out of his was a worthy venture.

Re: Cat Talking, Translation
And here's what it sounds like if you have your babel fish in your ear translating for you. A short clip that seems a lot like MST3K meets America's Funniest Videos.

I suppose you could say we're setting a bad example for the rest of the world with this product. Do you feel lucky, punk?
