Barely blogworthy, but I found several particularly impressive optical illusions while browsing the web. Download them as a powerpoint presentation if you’re bored at work or something.

The Official God FAQ
The Official God FAQ attempts to answer all of the most frequently asked questions about God. Do you have questions about God? All will be answered.
Which OS Are You?
Apparently, I’m Debian Linux (or possibly MacOS X). Sweet.
The Marvellous Breadfish
Tell me, have you seen the marvellous breadfish?
Ghost In The Shell 2 : Innocence
Paul will, yet again, have kittens: Ghost In The Shell 2: Innocence seems to have been released.
Aber Graduates Earn Least In UK
This is just fucking weak: the average salary of an Aberystwyth graduate is just £12,968… the lowest in the UK. And on this crappy ‘probationary period‘, that’s still more than I earn. Fucking shitty.
Feeling unmotivated now. Not getting enough work done.
Homosexual Intercourse Exposure To Be Reduced By Highland Cattle
In this news story on Ananova, it is reported that a Dutch town is hoping to reduce occurrences of gays using their park for sex by filling it with Scottish highland cattle, which will apparently “scare them off”.
It’s a weird world.

Schoolboy, 12, Performs Armed Robbery And Is Placated With Crisps
Article on the BBC. A schoolboy holds up a shop and demands money, using a sawn-off shotgun.
My favourite bit: Mr Guliani said there was no money in the till and, on instruction to load the bag with cigarettes instead, told the boy he was under age. The retailer later offered him sweets and crisps instead.
Teleportation Goes Long-Distance
The BBC have an article about Australian researchers successfully teleporting photons a distance of 600m, advancing upon their first efforts in the field, over two years ago.
Bush’s Foreign Friends
There’s a new googlebomb out, abusing the way that the popular Google search engine works. To see it in action, go to Google and enter “Bush’s foreign friends” (including the speechmarks) as the search term, and hit the “I’m Feeling Lucky” button.
Where Do They Make Balloons?
So I come home from work on Monday evening to find my flat full of balloons. WTF???
The ActionScript Jabberwocky
This made me smile: The Jabberwocky in ActionScript (Macromedia Flash’s scripting language). It’s another one of those that you’ll really need to be a proper geek to appreciate, but it’s really quite good.
Perhaps you need to be a Lewis Carrroll fan, as well…
