So it goes...

The world just lost it's brightest light.

It is doubtful it will ever see another like it.





If there were ever tears to be shed over the loss of a man, he deserves them all.

Deep-Fried Goldfish

From CScout Japan:







"...this restaurant** in Japan has a goldfish tank…in the deep fryer. Because oil floats on water, despite the massive heat (163 degrees Celsius) the goldfish simply stay away from the surface and all is well. They eat the crumbs of croquettes and other fried foods that fall to the bottom, and can live in there for 5-10 years** as they happily clean away, ignorant to the fact that certain death awaits any potential escapees.This one is hidden away back in the kitchen where customers can’t even see it, but it could easily be made for display near the dining area for everyone to see. No word on whether they turn cannibal and devour their battered bretheren when they’re chucked in along with some potatoes."


Here is a demonstration:



As mentioned in the comments on the site linked above, there must be some new fryer oil used here. Note the ice dropped in on the video. Such strange and wonderful technology.

I have found the perfect sandals

How often have you found yourself walking down the beach and thought to yourself, "if only my shoes were full of whiskey..."



Happens to me all the time.



The only question is, where do you keep the cup? I guess you could just drink right from the sandal.

Where have I been?

Haven't added anything on here for quite a while, but to celebrate a great new extension I found for the well loved ol' firefox, heres a new post, which might actually get followed up by some other new posts (maybe).



What did I find that brings me back you ask....

Its a lovely little thing which allows me to blog from my browser without jumping through all those annoying hoops. I am very impressed with it, and plan to use it as much as possible. Now that I finally found that pesky little ram leak in my browser, things are becoming much happier on the web for me again.



Opera sucks utterly and I felt like an outcast the entire time I was forced to use it.
