I don't read Japanese, but this page seems to investigate a UFO at the WTF crash.

Elsie says that the site is indeed saying that there were UFOs at the WTC crashes.

Bacon katsu

SNOOK, Texas -- Sodolak, owner of Sodolak's Original Country Inn in this small town (population 489) about 13 miles southwest of College Station -- that's about 100 miles northeast of Austin -- serves the breaded and deep-fried bacon as one of his appetizers. For that totally brown meal, he says some people order it as an appetizer to go with their chicken-fried steak

Seems that the HP-COMPAQ merger may go tits-up. Maybe it's because of users who need this.

To say this is odd would be an understatement. It's a little gross, too, but nothing seasoned TA readers couldn't handle. It's the poop machine. Feed the mouth and see what happens. Oh yeah, if you die, reload the page.

Pepe le Peu

Canadian researchers are developing a spray-on aphrodisiac.

Scientists at Concordia University in Montreal have been testing the nasal spray on rats.

The synthetic chemical would help trigger desire in both men and women.

This is just a tad bit strange ... decorating pregnant bellies.

Funky cold Hrdina

From scientist who really need to get out more, read about the biggest duck dong here.

All that is hype

The Daily Show suggested it might be improved by adding two more wheels, a large compartment for several people to sit in, and an engine capable of highway-compatible speeds.

This is a kind of strange visual/audio experience called Virtual Om. I suppose if you were on certain selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, this would be really neat. Lots of options to play with too.

Ever hear of a rumor that dying cordless phones dial 911 spontaneously? Well, even if not, Snopes gets to the bottom of it.

I may have linked to paintball gun "realism conversions" before, but I don't think I've posted this exact one. The TSG-1 is based on a AT-10 paintball gun, and is modified to look like a H&K PSG1. Submitted by Mahv.

Here's another Ghost Recon review; this one actually as a cheat page.

Just in time.

Now from the Nakednews comes the Naked TV News show. Coming soon on pay per view.

pr0n pain

LONDON (Reuters) -- "Her hand is moving away from my knee and heading north. Heading unnervingly and with a steely will toward the pole... Ever northward moves her hand, while she smiles languorously at my right ear. And when she reaches the north pole, I think in wonder and terror -- she will surely want to pitch her tent."

Something for the guys and something for the girls.

This is f'in brilliant: Segway Type R. Serves them right for all that hype.

Also from Wherearemypants:

This is a pretty cool Shockwave laser puzzle game. See WAMP for solution help.

First there was ASCII Star Wars, now Star Wars via Telnet. I can't quite figure out how to set my telnet client to make it display properly. If you can, let me know.

Someone had a lot of time on their hands, but the result of their work is nothing short of a masterpiece. Milko is a Shockwave sound/video/effects mixing board that is both highly entertaining and flawlessly executed. It features a claymation cow doing aerobics, "tai chi" or a gym workout. It really has to be seen to be appreciated.

What for?

Amazon has acquired what's left of ailing dotcom Egghead.com. It is temporarily redirecting traffic to a site in its electronics section until it can relaunch Egghead properly.

Here's a neat little archive of forgotten Looney Toons characters. That's Slowpoke Rodriquez above, Speedy Gonzales' cousin, surely an "inspired" creation.

This is pretty sick, but maybe someone out there might want to see it: Ratemypoo.com

This is certainly not for work-viewing. This site has you comparing yourself to a silhouette of the infamous part of Dirk Diggler. It's actually a slick testicular cancer PDA.

Poor Montreal

MONTREAL -- Montreal Canadiens right wing Donald Audette underwent surgery to his left forearm Saturday night after receiving a deep laceration in a 3-1 loss to the New York Rangers.

Tossing

TAMPA, Fla. (Reuters) -- A radio broadcaster known as "Dave the Dwarf" has sued to overturn Florida's ban on "dwarf tossing," saying he should be allowed to decide for himself whether to participate in the barroom contests.

8:30AM court appearances bad.

No, it's not a purse, it's a handbag dammit.

I've seen a lot of hardware reviews before, but this is the first one I've seen for a pair of pants.

More flash games for you to waste your time on. This one is pretty cool.

This is almost too dumb for words, but maybe worth a yuk or two: Phoons.com features photos of people doing the "Phoon" around the world. These people need lives. From Tef.

Here are a bunch of Flash toons/movies that I have not had a chance to view and therefore can't comment on. From Gspot:

• Explodingsoda
• Quino
• Robot Bastard!

Here's a pretty full-featured image browser/viewer, Irfanview. Best part is it's free.

This is a pretty good resource for paintballers: Pbreview hosts in-house and user-writted reviews of all sorts of paintball products.

Not crazy enough to go all the way up that trail.

Make sure to have the speakers on to hear the story of Mike the Headless Chicken.
