Friday Ephemera

Idle hands and all that. // The wall of Shatner and the pit of Shatner. // There are monsters under the water. // “The giant crabs... I knew it was you!” // At last, a cupcake cannon. // The Kubus armchair, 1910. // The golden age of comics. // Spider-Man foils robbery. // Brain dissection for beginners. // Robotic heart surgery. // Artificial skin. // Images of smoke. // The oil in your engine. // Synchronise your shutter speed. // The story of Rough Trade. // Go OCD with Tetris soap. // Facade printer. // Jump. // How drumming looks. // Impress the ladies with a laser jacket.

With a 200 diode laser jacket I'd be the coolest guy on earth.

So on that crab trailer, the narrator states "because today an entire city, a country, a continent will need his help"...was the continent "Europe" or "Eurasia"? 'Cause over here in America, they teach us that Europe is one continent and Asia is another for a total of seven, but from what I understand, over there on the other side they teach that there are six continents or even five or four. I think it is important to understand this concept before I go learn french and then see the movie, because it could have some impact on my interpretation of the plot development.
