Some random bits for you today.

– Everybody’s favourite first-left-handed-bat-off-the-bench-in-Milwaukee Gabe Gross has been tearing it up in what little action he’s seen so far. In four at-bats, he’s hit a game tying two run single against Arizona in a game that they eventually won 5-4, and hit a two run home run in his first at-bat of the year which was the turning point in a 7-5 win over Pittsburg.

– Do-it-yourself laser eye surgery just screams “disaster” to me, but so far I cannot find any indication that this is a joke. I suppose though, in this day and age, this is the closest thing to a ray gun you can buy.

– This video is just delightfully entertaining. I have no idea what this is – is this just like a Japanese show that airs nothing but this stuff? I could sit here and watch stuff like this for hours. …actually, I think I have. My favourite is the one that hits the glasses of water to sound out that stupid little jingle.

– I also now feel obligated to link to these two.

– Honestly, what’s up with this? Give man’s greatest enemy – the one that is most likely to out-survive us and one day challenge us for the dominance of the Earth – access to our greatest advantage; technology. COME ON! It’s like we want to be enslaved by an overlord race of insectoids.

Ah want Tong Po! Give me Tong Po!
