Thursday Link Dump
July 24th, 2008 -- by Augie De Blieck Jr.
- Closed on the house yesterday. Began making a checklist of all the things we need to do in it. The devil is in the details, the list is ever-expanding, and multiple trips to Home Depot and Cost Cutters/Target are to be expected for the next month. Thus, you get a link dump today.
- I’m not sure — are these pictures troubling or just plain cool? They are old black and white photos made into 3D images very simply. Fascinating trick.
- Funny video for font geeks. Both of you. Huge demerits, though, for making Comic Sans the hero. UGH
- Here’s a must-read interview for PIXAR fans, of how a movie gets made and why it’s done that way.
- Remember: Just because you don’t like it, that doesn’t mean it doesn’t have its fans. Take, for example, “Lifetime Wow!” It’s a website dedicated to reviewing Lifetime women-in-danger movies.
- XKCD beautifully tracks hurricanes.

Congrats on the house!
Are you watching Big Brother 10? It is the only reality show that I watch anymore and I was turned onto it by your commentary. Just curious on what you think about this seasons house guests if you are indeed watching.

Thanks! Due to the house, there is no Big Brother for us this year, sorry to say.
