A hot-air balloon crash. In China. With some Scottish lads. I love the friendly shouts of “Ni Hao” at the lady they pass as they hurtle towards the ground. :)

It’s just bizarre to think these were cutting edge when we played them.
How many do you recognise?

Floppy Imperial March
Sorry about all the retarded in-vid comments, but it’s too good not to post. :)

Dam!
On October 26th, a hole was blasted in the base of 125′ tall Condit Dam on the White Salmon River in Washington. In less than 2 hours, the reservoir behind the dam drained completely and the White Salmon flowed unimpeded by a dam for the first time in 100 years. This short clip is a combination of video and timelapse photography captured throughout the day.

Celebration! (Cocktails and Beer)
I’ll be sipping €5 cocktails in Sober Lane from 5:30 tomorrow to celebrate the recent addition to my family, and to celebrate the sleep I’ll get afterwards. May head over to Paulaner Oktoberfest Beag in Beamish & Crawford’s later in the evening, but I’m playing that by ear. Give me a tinkle if you’re coming in later.
[Sorry about the dupe post, stupid Hellotxt has a problem with ampersands. Seriously, ampersands. I'll be switching back to TwitterFeed unless they get their house in order.]

Turbine-Powered Batmobile
So near and yet so far. Crap build quality on the inside, and seriously, an iPad? But worst of all, how could you possibly build something like this and not fit a motor to the canopy?
Still cool though. :)
(I just had a(nother kid), and this time I’m actually doing baby-minding. There’s going to be an awful lot of crap posted in the middle of the night. Uh, sorry?)
