Hm, it's not been a good night for my computer. First Firefox crashes (first time I saw that happen), then the system freezes. Might be related, who knows.

Too bad, I had a whole slew of links to pass along, too... well, I can always re-look at a few of my favorite sites and see if anything sparks a memory or two... weell, here's a few, anyway. :)

Businessweek has an article on the Making of a LEGO Brick. (Did you know they are the biggest tire manufacturer? Read the article for why...)

I was considering a projector for my place, and while I know I don't have the space right now, I read an article for the Cine1000. The only thing is that I have no idea if the unit is powerful enough for my space, taking into account the want to mount it on the ceiling and the south-facing full-length window in the living room. I wish I knew how many lumens would be sufficient, that way it would be a goodmarker to measure by... (also, any thoughts on the model and its specs?)

I actually got an e-mail from Nintendo yesterday with a friendly reminder on how to hold the Wii Remote so as to not lose your grip. (There's a lot of people smashing really good TVs with this system...) Here's some other Safety pages that weren't in the Wii Manual. ;)

Dave linked me to the i maid cafe, a "maid cafe" here in Toronto - Markham, really. I think I know exactly where this cafe is! *chuckle* And here I thought I'd have to go back to Japan to see one of these cafes...

Use the Remote strap dammit! :p

The Cafe's been open for 6 months now. It's not really a true maid cafe, since they don't do any of the customary greetings or serving techniques... It's more just the uniform... A kind of inferior copy of the Japanese original... Hmm... That sounds familiar :p
