This week is “Kid’s Sunday” at our church. My wife works with our Children’s program, so I’m posting this pretty much just for her.
You never (ever… ever… ) know what will happen when you give a child a mic.
Freaky fast xylophone playing
At about the 1:00 mark… things get interesting.
My forearms hurt just watching it.
American Made! (sort of?)
Google “Big Bang Theory”
Funny note on pop-culture from Neil deGrasse Tyson.
(On the other hand… what does it say about Dr. Tyson’s research that he was Googling “Big Bang Theory” )

Something Really Big Hits Jupiter
Here’s some impressive video of something (pretty big) colliding with Jupiter (which is pretty bigger)

Car Powered by Mentos and Coke Zero
The guys at Eepybird are at it again!
The folks who turned fizzing minty cola into a performance art, have found a way to power a car with their concoction!
The all new Mark II Coke Zero and Mentos Rocket is not, however, likely to be hitting your local car dealership anytime soon.
The vehicle was propelled 6 feet by 54 bottles of Coke Zero and 324 mentos (Followed by about 200 feet of coasting).
Math Time:
1 Mento = $0.04 (source)
1 Bottle of Coke Zero = $1.69 (source)
Total Cost of Fuel:
$104.22 for 6 Feet (or $17.37 per foot)
Mileage:
So, we are looking at roughly $91,713 per mile.
We have a little ways to go before this becomes the alternative fuel source of the future.
Hacker Develops Alternative to Obscene Gestures
On occasion, I wish I could communicate slightly more with my fellow drivers than a wave can emote.
In my case, it’s usually along the lines of “Sorry!” or “My Bad!”. But I would venture to guess that some road rage could be prevented, if we were just able to communicate slightly more than a gesture allows.
So I got a kick out of this weekend project (This is cool!!!)
An LED panel display for the rear window.
This link provides more information INCLUDING complete instructions on how to build your own.
What do you think… would more communication lead to less… or more road rage?
Crazy Optical Illusion
The green and the blue colors… are identical. (I had to pull out Photoshop to verify it!)
My head hurts now…
