This is one of the hottest viral videos making the rounds. I've seen it a couple of times and always smile...



The stars of the Discovery Channel sing "Boom De Yada"

And this is the pretty awesome commercial they based their "skit on...

This is the cat's idea of "camouflage"



He's keeping a close eye on some hungry Cedar Wax-wings. They flew away before I could get a pic of them (about a dozen) sitting the tree watching the cat watch them.


See, it's kinda like this picture which "claims" to have the CN Tower



Now, I have started intently...for hours...at that pic and I'll be damned if I can find the CN Tower.

Site 
I'm contemplating redesigning the front end of this site for the 3rd time since I opened it in 2005.

I like the "Solari board" theme but I had one neat idea floating in my head...then a second idea came to me.

I'm not sure which idea I like better. I imagine I'll do them both then decide once the final product is done. I'd consider showing them to a select few people for some feed back before unleashing one on an unsuspecting internets. Muahahaha.

Ahem.

Yes, at *looks at clock* 11:03PM on a Saturday night, this is what I'm concerning myself with.

*work
*people over 65
*those with heart conditions
*pregnant women or those who wish to become pregnant

Pics 
From time to time, I like to mention cool stuff I've run across and this is by far one of the coolest browser add-ons...ever.

It's called PicLens CLICK and it's a different way of displaying pics from various sites.

The plug in takes every pic on a page (or from a photoset if you're using Flickr or Photobucket, for example) and displays it on a three-tiered "video wall." You can click on the pic you want a closer view of, zoom in and zoom out, scroll...it's pretty sweet.


What's nice too is if you do a Google Image Search for porn...er...lolcats (for example) it will continually load in all of the results meaning you can scan many many pics in less time.

I know I've spent (wasted, really) a lot of time looking for backgrounds for websites (or my own desktop) clicking through page after page of a GIS, looking at 20 (or so) pics at a time. Now I can scan thousands in mere minutes.


I know my description can't do it justice so hit up their site for a demo. I guarantee it looks exactly the same in use as the demo shows.

Bonus...you don't even need to run Firefox (which I'm using) as it'll work on Safari, even IE.
