Okay, obviously something in Firefox is leaking (1 gig of memory for 20 tabs?) so I'm dumping stuff for ya. :)

Oh geez, it had to happen some time or other, but someone's put together a Caramell-Dansen homepage. A collection of Caramell-Dansen. XD

And either someone's yanking our chain, or there is big Battletoads news coming out on May 10.

I'm sure some coffee afficianados and engineering fans will like this: Javabot, a machine that grinds, roasts and brews your coffee, almost Willy-Wonka style. You choose it and it whisks the beans around the store. :D

I keep saying it, some people have too much time on their hands. Here's the Super Mario Bros theme performed with bottles and a RC car.

Looks like Yahtzee actually liked No More Heroes. :D

I know that [livejournal.com profile] ginny_t typically links Astronomy Pictures of the Day, but here's a group I haven't seen posted yet: Space Debris. It's not a "true" picture but it shows a very interesting view of all the satellites and detritus floating around our tiny planet. I'm surprised that we've never taken out a satellite whenever we've had a shuttle launch!

Wow, a restoration of an Ecto-1. That is awesome. :D And to promote the new Ghostbusters game, too! (Now I hope it doesn't suck. XD)

There's no way that battletoads thing is real, there's only a single model versus a generic skeleton X3; Plus there's no way you're getting lighting like that on a Wii :P I'm not sure who organized this prank or why no-one's shutting it down, though :P I guess Rare have a sense of humor?

Yeah, there are some brilliant dolts who have been calling around to EBGames and GameStop and yelling at associates to get them ready for a fight. Then, they start asking to pre-order "Battletoads: 9,000 Mudkip Edition" and get very angry when you tell them the game doesn't exist. Apparently, it's some stupid meme or whatever from 4chan.

How original. :P

Ugh. You mean people have fallen for it? That's ridiculous. I love myself some Battletoads, but I can tell that's a fake. Especially since it has no company names tied to it. :(

I hope you're getting more legit calls at work...

Oh! And apparently Firefox 3 has done a lot to plug memory leaks. Sadly it has also become one of the programs that falls prey to some problem with my video card so I can't really tell. XP

All I need now, then, is Firefox 3... :P I take it that it's in beta testing?

They almost lost one shuttle to a paint fleck. It got about 3/4 of the way through a command deck window.

Scary.

Just so you know, Firefox ver 3 will fix the memory problem

Thank God. It's very frustrating to have to force-close/open Firefox every time I come home because it's been leaking all day.

Well, if I didn't leave so many tabs open in the first place, it wouldn't happen ;P

I love the security guard at the other end of the line of bottles in the SMB video. Dude looks hella confused ;P

Holy crap! So it's a big Scientology scam! I gotta tell Kevin this. XD
