But it’s very funny.

Is Apple really going to try a PDA again? AppleInsider seems to think so.

I’ve been a bit shy about putting this up, but I’m very proud to announce that The Cracked Man (the movie I helped work on with Kevin, Sam, Rich, Susie, Jinny, John, Jim, and many others) is now on Amazon!

It’s a short film, about 25 minutes, that Kevin envisioned along the lines of (I hope I get this right–I don’t have the DVD with me) German post-modern films (or was that post-expressionistic? Sorry Kevin, you’ll have to correct my info). The plot is on the Amazon page, so click here to see it. It’s also on IMDB.

It took two years to make, and was very complex to produce. I was very proud to work with everyone involved.

I warn you. I refuse to start it because I have too much going on right now, but even as I read the webpage it calls to me…

So I found this page incredibly funny.

One of my favorites:
[Reported Problem]: Evidence of leak on right main landing gear.

[Resolution]: Evidence removed.

An animated stereogram. I used to be pretty good at the static ones, but six seconds? I’m sure it says something about my brain to eye focus…

Try it here. It took me almost nine minutes, because I blanked on the last two for 5 minutes! Can’t believe I almost forgot the one that took me the most time.

Woo hoo!

The Mystery Turkey

It was Thanksgiving day. Just as everyone sat down to the Thanksgiving table, the turkey became alive! Then the turkey opened the door and ran outside.

We chased after him, but he was too fast. So we didn’t catch him. We all went back inside and instead of turkey we had the dessert and side dishes.

That night I went to sleep. The next day I was on a mystery. I decided to investigate. I saw that the oven didn’t have an oven mitt on the handle. I thought maybe my dad put it in the drawer. I checked. It wasn’t there. I checked in all the other drawers. It wasn’t in any other.

I know that my stove usually is hot for 3 days. It wasn’t. It was as cold as ice. Clue number 2- I was starting to think that the turkey was never cooked. Then I found another clue…the day before the turkey was cooked, my mom cleaned the oven. Then the turkey was cooked but there was no grease? That was clue number 3. I had enough clues to tell that the turkey wasn’t cooked.

Then I had one more clue. My dad baked the turkey but he was on a vacation when we had our dinner. So then I put all the clues together and it all made sense.

Since my dad wasn’t here when the turkey ran away, then he forgot to cook the turkey. He didn’t admit it at Thanksgiving because he was not there. So now it all made sense and the mystery was solved.
