Turning Intimacy Into A Video Game
Random Nonsense
A Ph.D. candidate at New York University has embedded sensors into underwear and hooked it to a video game where players score by touching their partner. You can read about it, and see her presentation to her professors and colleagues here (be careful, although it is in no way explicit or erotic, it still may be unsuitable for work). This is one academic with a great sense of humor.
I shudder to think of the implications for miniature wargames, though.

Universal Package Tracking
Technology
I found this very useful site that offers universal package tracking . Using Google maps and RSS, it will track your package and provide you with an RSS feed to keep up with it.
Very useful if you are doing a lot of mail order—which, given the paucity of historical miniatures stores, is likely.

Chuck Norris: If I Were President
Random Nonsense
Chuck Norris sounds off on what he would do if he ran for president.
A couple of choice ideas:
Increase jobs in America by sending ninja teams to sabotage and steal them back from other countries.
Personally smoke out bin Laden by myself and round-house kick him all the way back to America, where my United Fighting Arts Federation will handle the justice issues.
