Condom Science?

Here's a nice little science project to do if you've just hijacked a condom truck....
Ever wondered how many condoms you could wear at once? (probably not, but here's the answer)

Scary scary music videos....

Gollum sings Barry White (well)
Mr Spock does Nine-inch Nails

Morale problems...

Even the vending machines are depressed at the moment....

Textbook disclaimers....

I love this set of possible warning stickers for biology text books.
(The first one on the list is genuine....)

(Via BoingBoing... I know, I need to read more blogs, or post my own stuff)

Strange Police experience...

I got stopped by at police checkpoint a couple of weeks ago on the way home from work. The guy pulled me over and told me in german that they were doing a random drink driving test and asked if I'd been drinking. I answered (honestly) that I hadn't and the policeman said "Fine, you can go now, have a nice evening." That was it, no breath test, no sobriety test, no "please recite the alphabet backwards while standing on one leg and flapping your arms like a bird"...

I can't decide if I've just found a really great way of getting away with drink driving, or I just misunderstood the guy (my german isn't that bad), or if Heidelberg is just a much more trusting place that I thought...

Movie Trailers Re-cut...

These are pure genius... (all via BoingBoing, which I've been reading way too much recently...)

When Harry met Sally (Horror version)
West Side Story (Zombie version)
Mary Poppins (Horror version)
Sleepless in Seattle (Horror version)
The Shining (Romantic comedy)

Microsoft iPod

I love this little movie of what the iPod packaging would look like if Microsoft made it.
(What's even better is it was made as a joke by the packaging designers at Microsoft...)

Gangsta rap, heidelberg style.
