This production line, built entirely from Legos, builds simple Lego cars without any intervention from the user other than selecting colors at the beginning of the process. This heavily utilizes the new Lego Mindstorm Robots, of course, which come with development software that makes them programmable. Sheesh, kids these days.

Tumbletown Tales

Posted on Thursday, August 16, 2007Saturday, August 22, 2009

The wife and I were channel surfing the other day and stumbled across the strangest show we’ve ever seen. It’s actually not a whole show, per se, but rather a short segment of a children’s program called TVOKids developed for TVOntario Canadian public television. The segment, called Tumbleweed Tales, is meant to teach kids simple math concepts, but the funny thing is that it’s performed entirely by small rodents (with character dialog performed by the hosts of TVOKids).

It’s probably best I stop explaining and just let you watch. Let me know if you find it as entertaining as we did.

Simba, my favorite kitty

Posted on Sunday, March 25, 2007Saturday, August 22, 2009

Here’s one of the first videos I uploaded to YouTube myself, a demonstration of why Simba is my favorite cat in the world.

Update August 2, 2007: This video (along with all my videos) has been moved to Vimeo. I don’t like some of the new features YouTube released recently so I went looking for an alternative. Vimeo seems to have better privacy controls and I just like their interface a little better than YouTube’s.
