Good morning links

Autumn has arrived in Canberra! As I cycled in I noticed that the clock/thermometer in front of the ABC said it was 11 degrees. No wonder my hands were feeling so cold.



To kick the day off here are a number of quirky links for you...

  • Modern Mechanix show an old newspaper clipping that solves a dilemma all nudists face - just where do you put you cigarettes when you have no pockets!
  • Paleo-future, a blog that looks into the future that never was, shows that way back in 1900 someone had already thought of the Segway!
  • Over on American Inventors Spot they "list ten weird handbags for the manly man". I like no. 9, decapitated head in a bag purse. Guaranteed to put off any bag snatchers.
  • An article in the Metro reports that an American school student has been suspended from school because he is a Pastafarian. People of this faith must wear full pirate regalia and they are followers of the Flying Spaghetti Monster. Hmmmm, so much for freedom of religion!
That's enough for the moment...

Believe in Tupã and The Seven Legendary Monsters (including the old time favourite Kurupi) from the Paraguayan Mythology, hahahahahaha! xo.

I will have a look for an image of Kurupi on the net! Maybe he could be our mascot.
