Etching Barack

It took an Ohio etch-a-sketch "artist" 30 hours to complete this impressive portrait of the 44th President. What do you think? Should he have added anything or one?



I just missed the whole etch-a-sketch phenomenon, but I recall my cousins had one in their closet. Right next to the Battleship and Game of Life.

PSU Blues And Greens

So it seems my computer's PSU is conking out on me, as suspected this past year. If I suspected, why didn't I replace it earlier, you might be asking yourselves.

Well, I ask that too, because I did request the computer nerds who "fixed" my desktop earlier this year, to check out the fan inside the PSU -- at least I was in the general vicinity...

The part will take a while to arrive, and until then, I will blog sporadically.

Of course, when the actual part arrives, I will have to go to said geeks again and ask them to install it for me. Having gotten up the courage to peek inside my computer, by yanking off the cover, I took a look at that warren of multi-coloured fibre wotsits inside, and I realised the task may be easy, but I am simply not game enough to run the risk of electrocution.

And speaking of being technologically-challenged, have you seen this new clock called Chromochrome?



No. Seriously. It's a clock.

Here are the instructions on how to read the time.



Ummm, what?

Fat lot of good that Oxford degree has done me, my dear Sundries readers.

And why am I suddenly 8 years-old, struggling to keep up with my cousins playing on our Simon?



I'll be back before you know it.

Rip My Lungs Out Elmo

Did you forget some special child in your gift-giving spree this Christmas? Well, never fear! I got your back.

This line of toys is guaranteed to make any stick-in-the-mud parents "hip and trendy".

I mean, seriously, how cool is this?











So, which one did you like best? I think my favourite, other than the unicorn since I hate unicorns and all who dote on them, is the tiger.

...'cause you get loads of extras, like bones and sheah. The economy stinks. You might as well get bang for your blood.
