Don't Worry, Be Happy...

Nontrivial PursuitDepressed by the news headlines? Take a break from it. Here are some quick fun escapes to lighten the gloom.

  • Funny Art Seen While Walking: Lana and I happened across this sculpture of a giant ball of yarn and knitting needles while discussing her knitting addiction. More fun sculptures in the gallery.
  • Oktoberfest Gone Wrong : You know you've had too much brewski when you start drinking it from your sneakers. I've seen plenty of odd sights at the Munich Oktoberfest, but not this one.
  • The Gym Ghost (Video Link) The night security cam kept coming on at a gym, and a white orb appears to wander around. As a skeptic, I think the white orb is obviously a moth or other bug attracted to the light when the motion-sensor light comes on for some other reason. Or the security cam company is wrong when they say a bug won't trigger the motion detector light. Now, if they had a microphone and picked up, "10 more! Tummy, tummy, tummy!" I'd know it was the ghost of my trainer, Roman, determined to haunt me 'till I'm buff.
