GitEmSteveDave made a magnetic Starbucks paper cup to attach to the roof of his car.
He drives around and tweets peoples' reactions. Sample tweet: "13 honks, 3 points, 2 mimes, 3 StopLightTells, 1 flash, 1 wave, 2 laughs, 5 AlongSideRiders, 4 2xTakes, & 1 cute girl took my picture."

It's actually quite pretty (again, relatively speaking), but this slug is most likely an Arion rufus, a species that's native to Europe, but has been found in British Columbia and is apparently now also at large in Ontario. Hermaphroditic in nature, some slugs can even knock themselves up, so it on... More.
The Huffington Post is collecting blatant lies (and arguable mistruths) from Palin's new memoir, "Going Rouge." Here are a couple for feel:
"Palin boasts that she ran her campaign for governor on small donations and turned back large checks over conflicts of interest. In fact, she relied heavily o... More.

Last week, Wikileaks published what were previously secret documents on a plan to create a unique ID for every single citizen in India -- that's more than a billion IDs, and would be the largest such project in world history.

The Black Plaque scheme was instigated in October 2003. Its purpose is to commemorate and draw public attention to historical figures in such diverse fields as sorcery, the Royal Art, left hand path occultism and witchcraft, as well as the mentally infirm: tortured poets, psychopaths and village idiots.

I'm sorry,but this is just about as stupid a waste of time as any I have ever heard of.
Not that I have any particular disdain for wiccans or pagans,other than my general dislike for anything even vaguely religious.

Nice to see the darker side of our cultural heritage being represented. I wonder how many people will be commemorated by both plaques? John Wilmot, 2nd Earl of Rochester surely deserves both a Black and a Blue one.
#1, stupider even than, for example, making pewter figurines of video game characters? I think not..
Can't both be stupid?
Personally, I don't think we should make monuments to ignorance.
Whilst I have an instictive mistrust of this sort of malarkey, I have to say I enjoyed this site. Reading between the lines it seems clear that it's the work of a lone (and probably carless - readers ouside England may not have spotted that almost all the sites mentioned are a short bus or train ride from Ipswich!)obsessive but like that's a bad thing? It was nice to find I'm not the only person who's never, ever quite shaken off the atmosphere of Witchfinder General since first seeing it, and if nothing else, I now know what liminal, qliphoth and toponymy mean.
#4: Obviously, you've never seen a cathedral.
I think it's a wonderful project.
Okay, NotYouButMe (1), it's the stupidest thing you've ever seen. I don't see why we had to hear about it if you weren't going to explain why, but no doubt you had your reasons.
