Weight lifting can be monotonous … but there are always those moments of sparkling dialogue.

Guy 2: So, what did you do Sunday night?
Guy 1: Yeah, I ended up watching 8 Below.
Guy 3: Hey - that snowboarding movie, right?
G1: Umm … no. But there is a lot of snow involved. It’s about sled dogs.
G2: Oh oh - that’s that movie with Cuba Gooding, Jr. in it!
G1: Uhh … no. Cuba Gooding Jr?! What? It stars that worthless actor …
G3: Oh yeah, yeah -
G2: Paul Walker!
G1: Yeah, Paul Walker.
G3: “You’re not double clutching like a good little boy …”
G2: Wait a second. What were you doing watching 8 Below?
G1: It was actually pretty good.
G3: Are you gay?
G1: No. And now I want a husky.

Mykala, want to watch that movie some time?

Timelapse photography - Using the Canon camera (one model newer than my own), this guy makes some incredible timelapse movies with software set to snap an image over a certain time interval. “Montreal Sunset Shards” is one of my favorites.

Skidboot the dog - If you’ve got the time, take about 8 minutes out of your day for a heartwarming story about an amazing dog. Thanks, dooce.

The Big Round Cubatron - This fantastic contraption is a homebuilt 3-d light show. You’ll have to see a video or another video to get a feel for how cool it is.

‌

Sandra Boynton - Known (to me) as the lady who wrote the original and quite punny card “Hippo birdie two ewe.”

Pitch drop experiment - World’s longest lab experiment: since 1927 - it measures how slowly pitch (tar) will drip out of a funnel. “The eighth drop fell on 28 November 2000, allowing experimenters to calculate that the pitch has a viscosity approximately 100 billion times that of water.”
