This is so hilarious, but it’s absolutely true: If men see something to aim at in the urinal, like a bug, they will try to hit it with their stream (admit it guys, we’ve all done it). So it stands to reason that if you permanently embed said target into the actual urinal, you could save yourself a bunch of cleaning costs as there’s less spillage. That’s what they did at the Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam by etching a little fly into the bowl, and they claim it has reduced spillage by 80%.

What If Chat Rooms Were Real?
I’ve never been a big chat room guy, but based on the few experiences I’ve had with them (back in my Compuserve days), this is a pretty good real-life representation:
Photoshop and Graphics Design Link Dump
In an attempt to clean out some links here are some good ones that I’ve got sitting around:
- Photoshop Pop Art Tutorial
- Colorize Black and White Photographs
- MS Paint Masterpieces — not to be confused with MS Paint Porn (NSFW).
- Wonderful logos and the logic behind them.
- Automatic Image Tagging and Indexing (amazing technology).
- Typefaces nobody gets fired for using
- Phototouching before and after shots (as well as another portfolio of image manipulation)
- Pin-up calendar with girls made out of typography (NSFW).
- Designing a Logo of Letters
- Added…Antiquing Digital Images in Photoshop
More to come if I find them.

Real Life Leeroy Jenkins
Getting rid of all the various YouTube videos I have bookmarked (actually, I’ve got a ton more, but that’s all for today at least), here’s one that’s only funny if you know who Leeroy Jenkins was. After reading up, watch these…
Scary Poppins
My guess is the target audience for Mary Poppins might be a little different if their trailer looked like this:
Star Wars, The Silent Movie
What if Star Wars was done in silent movie style? It might look something like this …
Central Oregon Barbie Dolls
I posted a version of this joke a while back, but this version has more of a Central Oregon focus (and you’ll only really get the last one if you live or work in the Sunriver area). I’ve made some edits of the version that was sent to me, and you can find the dolls below.

Does Anybody Feel Sorry For Congress?
US Democrats, who will take control of Congress next month, have outraged some of their colleagues by their decision to work five days a week, which will almost double their workload.
According to an announcement made by the next Democratic majority leader, Steny Hoyer, representatives will have to be present to vote Monday through Friday.
What’s more, instead of waiting for the traditional State of the Union address by the president at the end of January to begin legislative work, the House of Representatives and the Senate will put themselves to work as early as January 4.
A Republican member of Congress immediately complained.
“Marriages suffer. The Democrats couldn’t care less about families — that’s what this says,” Congressman Jack Kingston told The Washington Post.
Boo-frickin’-hoo, you cry babies. Now you can work like the the rest of America instead of nearly setting a record low for work days like you did last year.
