This is one of the old type 3D stereo grams that has been simply made into a very effective animated gif.  Makes me want to comb through my local antique mall!

Toomba, from the makers of Roomba

Filed under: robot news — charlie @ 12:26 pm

(As seen on today’s woot-off on woot.com)

It’s Toomba™, the robotic coffin that literally digs its own grave! Just insert the corpse into the giant easy-fill debris bin. Then press the button for one of Toomba’s three burial modes. The patented rotating DirtScrew™ will then tunnel into the earth to a depth of up to 10 feet below – no more sweaty, depressing gravedigging by hand! While it’s digging, the bereaved will solemnly remember the deceased to the tune of Toomba’s lifelike MIDI funeral classics, including “Amazing Grace”, “Taps”, and “Candle in the Wind”. Once the deceased is in the ground, jet nozzles inside Toomba’s debris bin spray special emblaming fluids to keep the body smelling sweet and in one piece for up to 300 years. Dispatching your loved ones to their ultimate reward has never been easier or more impersonal. Toomba – the easy way to the great beyond!

The Philadelphia Experiment

Filed under: Bizarre — Dirkin @ 5:47 pm

You thought the Philadelphia Experiment was just a good premise for a movie, but no, it really is an X-Files mystery.  In 1943, supposedly the U.S.S. Eldridge was “teleported” from Philadelphia to Norfolk.  Of course the Navy completely denies this on their official military history website.  I found this all out while searching for U.S. military ships on Google Maps.  The second most interesting thing, the Mothball Fleet outside of San Fransisco, including the U.S.S. Iowa, the last of the great Iowa class battleships.
