Haircut by Fire

March 26th, 2007 by Almost George

Apparently there’s a guy at a barber shop here in Memphis cutting people’s hair with fire. Stumbled on the link at BoingBoing, to a Flickr set with several pictures.

What shop is that at? I’ve got to look into this…

Sharing my good fortune: Actually pulled from a take-out fortune cookie!

You may have seen something like this before, but I’ve never gotten one quite so funny. This, after we had just completely stuffed ourselves.

You’ve surely heard of the Darwin Awards, right?

Along the same lines, but not about entirely (or entirely about) stupid people, comes Neatorama’s 30 Strangest Deaths in History.

Including, but not limited to: Death by Cactus, Death by Beard, Death by Drowning at a party for Life Guards.

Lydia of Purple

One of the web’s most popular links, in case you’ve never heard:

modestapparelchristianclothinglydiaofpurpledressescustomsewing.com

Surf around the site for awhile and you’ll find some very interesting information. Her husband will build you a wooden castle for your kids for pretty cheap, if you’re not interested in buying her modest cape-backed dresses or what-not.

HTML Tattoo, Cashing a Check from God

March 2nd, 2007 by Almost George

This HTML tattoo is funny… But not awesome. I want to see more like this!

In other news: Some doofus tried to cash a check from God.

UPDATE:
Another HTML tat’ like the above.

Sure enough, there are places with image galleries of Geek Tattoos! Sweet. General Disclaimer: If you’ve never perused a tattoo site, be warned: some are edgy, and sometimes “revealing”. I didn’t check out this whole section, so browse at your own risk. (Unless of course you just don’t care).

Beatboxing Flute Player?

February 20th, 2007 by Almost George

My friend told me to look up some Youtube video, entirely different from this feature - but what should I see, when I landed on Youtube, but this video of a beatboxing flute player…?

He gets a bit red in the face and, from the sound of it, could practice his beatboxing a bit more - but the general idea and execution amazed me. There were several videos apparently, but I only watched the one I’m linking to here, as I’m still in the process of finding what I was sent here to see.

Gizmodo spotted these Swiss Army like Sunglasses. Customizable, allowing you to choose the tools… yes, even the paint brush and back scratcher. Sweet!

Here at work I noticed a flier for a Chinese New Year Festival. Apparently one of the performers for the event has previously performed at a couple world class locations. Check out the bad cellphone camera picture to see where:
