These links, while all really interesting, don’t lend themselves to a full post. Since I have tons of these that I save, all in hopes of being smacked by a muse to write about, I figured I would start a collection of links that I think people should see.

Well, it’s hard to teach wit – but all of us can learn the next best thing: the approximation of it by obfuscation, i.e. using big, difficult, and obscure words. So, to do our part in improving the quality of insults on teh Interweb, Neatorama has come up with a list of 10 Insulting Words You Should Know:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cadavre_exquis
Exquisite corpse (also known as “exquisite cadaver” or “rotating corpse”) is a method by which a collection of words or images is collectively assembled, the result being known as the exquisite corpse or cadavre exquis in French. Each collaborator adds to a composition in sequence, either by following a rule (e.g. “The adjective noun adverb verb the adjective noun“) or by being allowed to see the end of what the previous person contributed.

This cake is made from 100% awesome. It’s the Muppet Show Cake. Created for the 2007 Kentucky State Fair (where it won the Blue Ribbon), it’s got all the usual suspects from The Muppet Show. The detail is amazing! One of the best cakes I’ve ever seen. I don’t know if I could bring myself to eat Beaker though!

What’s more intimate than walking on the beach at sunset? Walking on the beach at sunset while listening to the sweet serenade of a wave-powered organ of course! and if you ever find yourself in San Francisco, Blackpool, or Zadar, I suggest you make a date to visit the local sea organ.
Well, that is it for now. Look for more links to come in the future.
