Geeky Blast From the Past
I don’t usually wear a watch much anymore. I’ve got a nice one, but I constantly had to remove it to go through the metal detectors at Airports or different Federal Agencies so I pretty much shelved it. I use my iPhone for telling time if I need to know. But I remember this watch from my High School years. Some of my friends had them until they were confiscated by math teachers.
How funny is it that they actually slowly demonstrate doing real calculations as if people wouldn’t believe that a watch can add/subtract/multiply/etc?

I love panoramic photos, and this invention will make taking those photos much more fun and easy. Hook that right into photosynth. How much would you pay for something like this? Like This Post? Rate it and tell your friends! Click the Share button below.

Finally, I have a volunteer! I do have a problem with the 4 pips on the collar. Clearly she couldn’t rise above the rank of ensign much less wear Captain’s pips. Autotune this girl in the shower with her TOS-dressed friends and lets start this 24th century party. Favorite line? “Like tribbles, we’ll cuddle day…

Ruh-Roh Shaggy!, originally uploaded by BelchSpeak. Saw this Vee-Dub bus painted like the Mystery Machine in front of Old Man Healy’s car wash parking lot out here in Huntington Beach CA. It also had scary ghost face decals in the rear windows. It smelled like bong water and Scooby Snacks. I didn’t see any meddling…

It was shortly after they came out that I had one. Friends laughed at the idea until…
I was sittin’ in Chilkoot Charlies drinkin’ to excess when the bartender announced that whoever could guess how many beans were in a 1 gallon jar, or come the closest, would win round trip tickets to Seattle.
Being drunk and full of myself I set out to win. I estimated how many beans would fit in a square inch, asked some questions about the half beans I saw in the jar and made some calculations on my calculator watch. Those around me laughed and made fun of me. They had a good giggle ’til the bartender took my guess and his jaw dropped. He looked at me with what I would call “awe”, and suggested that I be there when they gave the tickets away. The laughter stopped abruptly.
I had come within 35 beans of how many were in the jar.
I had a nice little vacation. Used the Seattle tickets to get me to Florida.
