The best and geekiest clocks

Monday, July 6th, 2009

I don’t know what my fixation on clocks is (considering that I recently posted about alarm clocks), but I find the huge variation among them very amusing.

Top 3 Cutest Robots

Monday, April 13th, 2009

In ascending order of cuteness and awesomeness…

2. Lovestruck R2D2
