Three Frames

So funny.

If you’re looking for something to do, feel free to get lost in the hilariousness that is threeframes.net. I don’t know who runs the site, or where they got the idea, but the premise is simple: throw together three consecutive frames from any video ever, and make a .gif out of it. You don’t even need to know the above image is from the movie Jaws to appreciate it as it is in it’s new form.  All you gotta do is imagine the shark yelling, “Nom, Nom, Nom!”

Check it out here.

Have fun.

Thank you to SuperForester Steven!

SuperForester Steve and the DIY R2-D2!

The infamous Steven Leckart has a great video up over at wired.com about a group of bay area builders who’ve constructed some wicked working R2-D2′s. Wantee.

What do you think? Ten years before we all have one? Eleven years? Twelve?
I want one yesterday.

Cheers, Steve!

I Bought Something Today: Lil’ Wizard Lantern from Lehman’s

Good Morning SuperForest!

I buy things so infrequently that I actually thought it worth posting about.

I was recently asking SuperForester Steve if he had any advice on where to buy sustainable products, and he helpfully reminded me of Lehman’s.

The Lehman’s catalog bills itself as “products for simple, self-sufficient living.”
Everything in the catalog is not only made to last, it’s made to outlast and be passed on. Everything in Lehman’s is heirloom quality.

I bought two Lil’ Wizard lanterns for reading and entertaining in the night times!

Cute, no? I got two of these red little bad boys and a gallon of non-petroleum lamp oil. When they get here, I’ll take a picture of them lighting up my windowsill.

A question for all you SuperForesters:

Lanterns. Insanely geek or insanely chic?
