60MPH in a what?
Giuseppe Cannella had a big surprise for his mother-in-law when he put a jet engine on the back of her wheelchair...
Curious George:
What do you do with a stray pet? A very young kitten got trapped inside my car engine this weekend while trying to escape a rainstorm. We got him out, but can't find his mom. None of the shelters will take him because he's too little. And my other 2 cats have already voted "no" on keeping him.

MeFi/MoFi DC Meet Up?
A bunch of DCers are thinking of meeting up after work at the 18th Street Lounge this Thursday (or maybe Wednesday) to drink beer and perform other social rituals. Any monkeys want to come so we can pick flees off one another? (Okay, maybe not until we're really drunk.)

I know it's a little early to be thinking about Halloween costumes for the young 'uns, but
if you're at a loss for ideas, these folks have come up with Child Pimp and Child Ho ensembles. Stuff like this usually sets off my Punk'd radar, but they take credit cards so I guess it's legit, if legit is the proper word.
The Scientists Agree: Top 10 SCI-fi Movies of all Times...

It's state fair time!
State fairs are a wonderful summertime bit of Americana, celebrating agriculture, livestock and domestic skills. I went to the Maryland State Fair this past weekend, where I rode a Tilt-A-Whirl, saw the top baked goods in the state and petted lots of farm animals. The Illinois State Fair (my home state) has a cool Web site where you can take a virtual tour of the huge fairgrounds. The Wisconsin State Fair is famous for its cream puffs -- they sold 360,000 this year alone! Overseas monkeys, do you guys have state fairs, or something similar?

Mat saleh calling it English killer language. Wah. For chiak kantang, salarymen it a bit the different, lah?
No Monkey Sex for You!
Why does Feili, a Chinese chimpanzee, smoke and spit at people? Simple: "A male chimpanzee at the zoo has failed to live up to Feili's sexual demands"
OOOOH!! AAAAH! OSTRICHES
Mother of Pearl! Behold some large birds wigging out! May bug people who are against riding freakass birds that can kill you. Watch the video clip (Quicktime)
Most important! "Continue holding on tightly as the ostrich attempts to dislodge you." No shizzle, nizzle.

William Buckley Leaving National Review
William Buckley is leaving the National Review. He said the main reason is coming grips with his own mortality. He also had this to say about the Iraq war.
"With the benefit of minute hindsight, Saddam Hussein wasn't the kind of extra-territorial menace that was assumed by the administration one year ago," Mr. Buckley said. "If I knew then what I know now about what kind of situation we would be in, I would have opposed the war."more inside
