Life and Death Masks

I was on vacation for a bit, but I am back and ready to post. I think.

The Laurence Hutton Collection of Life and Death Masks is a great place to browse if the images of death masks are what you seek.

It’s a bit slow loading, but this page has images showing 40 Movie References From The Simpsons. I was surprised that I had not noticed a few of these as movie references before.

Frozen Grand Central

As noted before, I’m a fan of Improv Everywhere. One of their newer projects has people all stopping movement at the same exact time in Grand Central Station. Well done, it’s quite surreal.

Anonymous Vs. Scientology Updates

If you’re at all interested in the protests against The Church of Scientology (not the religion mind you) happening tomorrow (today? well the 10th anyways) here are some links of interest:

Something Awful Protest Report Thread

Twitter: The Perth Raid (one of the first protests due to the time zone). Nothing is there as of this writing, but I expect good things.

Anonymous vs. Scientology (Part Deux!). The first Something Awful thread on the subject reached 200 pages and then this was opened. Talk of live protests start around the page linked here. You can also start at the beginning and spend the day there if you like.

Post-Game. A forum on Enturbulation for after/during the protest reports.

Governmentattic.org

Pardon the lack of updates this week. I’m back though, really!

The Government Attic has some great documents released via the freedom of information act. The FCC complaints make for scary and interesting reading.

Amazing Guns

This collection of “The Most Amazing Guns in the World” has some way out ones. While I am not even close to a fan of weapons, I admit the crucifix gun is pretty sweet.
