Ok we all know you shouldn’t put metal in a microwave and expect it to work very long. Well did you know you shouldn’t put grape halves in there either? See this video.

Check out this short film shot entirely with a Digital SLR camera. Here is the link.

I was reminded of the anniversary of the space shuttle Challenger tragedy yesterday while driving to work and listening to NPR. I was in 8 years old when it happened and have little to no recollection of the details or aftermath. NPR played a clip of Ronald Reagan’s speech and I was so struck by the speech. Hearing that audio clip helped me understand why Reagan was such a beloved President.

You can find a transcript of that speech here… and an mp3 audio recording of it here.

I was just reminded how happy I am with my site hosting. I have had really bad hosting at Powweb (I am not even going to link it for fear you will waste your money with them!). The place I will recommend is Lunarpages. They offer a tremendous amount of storage and bandwidth, unlimited MySQL databases, email, cPanel, ecommerce and more. Check them out!

A little Chuck Norris humor for your Tuesday afternoon.
