Are you smarter than a 5th grader?
My brother-in-law sent me this via e-mail. See if you can figure it out.
This is not a trick question. This is a real math problem so don’t say that a bus has no legs.
There are 7 girls in a bus
Each girl has 7 backpacks
In each backpack, there are 7 big cats
For every big cat there are 7 little cats
Question: How many legs are there in the bus?
expelled – coming soon
digital analog camera
remember the days of analog cameras? you’d fill a full roll of film, never quite knowing how it would turn out – until you developed the film. sometimes you’d be thrilled, sometimes sadly disappointed.
but what if you could return to those anxious days without the cost of film developing? that’s the idea behind the Eazzzy! cam design. no lcd screen, no viewfinder, but also no waiting for film to develop. just plug it into your usb port and go.
another option that i’ve had fun with is basically the same idea – just continuing to use a digital camera with a broken lcd screen.
we’ve set it out at a few parties and gotten funny looks but the pictures are some of the more random fun photos of the night.
you could do the same thing i spose by taping over the screen and viewfinder as well.
Heath Ledger dead
Fox News and CNN are reporting the actor was found dead in his New York apartment this afternoon.
Actor Heath Ledger was found dead Tuesday at a downtown Manhattan residence in what authorities say is a possible drug-related death, the NYPD said. He was 28.
NYPD spokesman Paul Browne told The Associated Press that Ledger had an appointment for a massage at the Manhattan apartment that is believed to be his home. The housekeeper who went to let Ledger know the masseuse was there, and found him dead at 3:26 p.m, Browne said.
From CNN:
The New York Fire Department received a call at 2:27 Tuesday responding to a “cardiac arrest call” in New York.
