This Is Why I'm Broke

This Is Why I'm Broke has become one of my favorite sites I subscribe to in my reader and I look forward to seeing the (usually) several posts each day.  From the ridiculous to the sublime, from outrageously expensive to reasonably priced, the site links to both practical and hedonistic items for sale.

For example, you can buy a Curved 4K Ultra HD LED TV for $7,997.99 or a Heated Butter Knife for $19.99. If those don't interest you, then there's a Selfie Toaster ($75.00) which will burn any image you supply into your morning toast, eating your breakfast while listening to your Autonomous Mechanical Hootenanny machine. ("only" $54,000.00)

Check it out!

Pendulum Waves

From the description under the video: Fifteen uncoupled simple pendulums of monotonically increasing lengths dance together to produce visual traveling waves, standing waves, beating, and (seemingly) random motion.
 

Now watch it done with bowling balls!

Memoirs of Madman Mike

You Are a Memoir

You're funny, but many people don't see your funny side. Your subtle dry humor leaves your close friends in stitches. You have your own quirky ideas about the world. You see so much light and promise. You have no patience for small talk or niceties. You want to have conversations of substance. You are an amazing storyteller. You always have a new story to relate, and your friends love to listen to you.
