Year of the Fett

For the past year I have been following a 365 set on Flickr called the Year of the Fett, a series of daily pictures of a Lego Boba Fett. It was interesting and funny. I liked the routine of refreshing the tab each day and seeing what Boba Fett was up to. It ended on Friday. I have the tab open right now reading the comments. It will feel weird not to have that tab open on Firefox at work any more. Well, I'm off to close the tab now ... ::click::

(I still have my daily dose of Indexed.)

Year of the Fett

I am really enjoying the Year of the Fett, a daily photo stream on Flickr featuring pictures of Lego Boba Fett. It's a nice treat each morning when I start up the computer to see what Boba Fett did that day.

Montel and chiropractic

I forgot that Montel Williams suffers from multiple sclerosis, but then I received this link to a YouTube video of him discussing his amazing results after receiving a chiropractic adjustment.



I think this is very cool because I know that chiropractic works, I've (obviously) studied it and seen the results first hand, but it seems to carry so much more weight when a celebrity people trust gets results. I remember when people talked about Emmitt Smith getting adjusted on Dancing with the Stars ... it's nice to get some positive mainstream attention. What I like most about Montel's piece is the fact that his issue goes beyond the headaches and low back pain that chiropractic gets pigeon holed into so often.

And if you thought I'd make a post without a Star Wars reference, think again! Since I'm linking to YouTube, watch "George Lucas In Love" and enjoy a good laugh!

Star Wars USB flash drives

I want my next USB flash drive to be one of these. (OK, this was really an unintentional Star Wars reference, since I started by seeing this one.)

Lego's Millennium Falcon

Continuing the (unintentional) Star Wars theme from yesterday, check out this time-lapse video of the largest-ever Lego set being assembled -- Han Solo's Millennium Falcon. The assembly took several nights and is sped up to finish in 3:38. It's amazing, really, that the instruction book is even spiral bound. Crazy! (Reminds me that I have to assemble my X-Wing Fighter from Tracey and Clay.)

The highlight of my day ...

The kids who come into my office always brighten the day. I really enjoy the interactions with the little ones. Well, today, two young brothers came in, one with a Buzz Lightyear toy, the other with a stuffed R2-D2 and stuffed C-3PO. I asked the one with the Star Wars droids who he had, and he told me C-P3O and Arthur-D2. And really, can you beat Arthur-D2 for a pick-me-up?
