Took it easy tonight - BHK and I got into our jammies, watched Mistress of the Spices and had Chinese food... nice date!

True or not true? - In the Aramaic language circa CE 0, the phrase used to describe "seeking vengeance" was the same phrase used to describe "performing sodomy".

MIT Media Lab researcher Tad Hirsh has designed electronic coconuts to be deployed as noise sensors in San Jose, California, an area which is subject to aircraft from San Jose International Airport, Oakland International Airport, and San Francisco International Airport. The coconuts are hung from trees, and when they hear excessive noise from low-flying aircraft, they use integrated cellphones to leave messages at the San Jose airport complaint hotline on behalf of the people, animals and trees of San Jose.


Here’s a sample complaint:

“Uh… Hey. Um, yeah. So… Um, this is…. Yeah, no, like, I’m… Shut up, no, I’m talking. Okay, so, yeah. So, all these planes, man… It’s crazy. It’s like a roooaarrrrr. Dude, I need a pizza… Could you send me a pepperoni pizza? Dude, that would be great. Wait wait wait wait wait, put some mushrooms on that. Yeah, mushrooms. Sweet.”

Check out the original audio files on Tad’s website; they’re exactly how you’d think a hyper-intelligent (and maybe stoned) coconut would sound.



Eight states are sending autistic, mentally retarded, and emotionally troubled kids to a facility that punishes them with painful electric shocks. How many times do you have to zap a child before it's torture? I need to ask Lisa Fischler about this.

What did you think of Mistress of Spices? After hearing another blog say they loved it, I added it to Netflix. But...another blog said it was one of the worst movies they've ever seen.

upon seeing the first photo..I thought you guys unearthed an old, terra cotta statue of some sort!
