I bring you this cool little gizmo from the DJ world.



It's called a Monome (french word) and sets up digital sampling loops. It's a really neat little thing that I'm going to try and make on my computer using the 'fake' touch screen software concept by Johnny Lee and a Nintendo Wii remote (linked somewhere hear long ago).

Hungry goat. Electric fence. Uh huh.

I think the person in the video was inciting the goat with some food. I visited an old physics professors farm that he and his wife live on. They have Belgium horses that were bread to carry knights, along with some donkeys. These horses are massive (upwards of 2000lbs!). The only way to keep them fenced in is with electric wire, otherwise they will just push over a normal fence due to their heavy mass.

He said they know when the electric fence is on because they put their face up close to the wire and they can feel the static discharge starting to make the hair on their face stand up.

You know, at the :15 mark you might see something infront of the lower pipe that wouldn't be part of the goat. Whether it's food or something else, who can say. If so, then that's disgusting. Looks like fingers waving.

Is it bad that I laughed when they said that truck driver was a woman?

Nope. I thought the cow/camel getting hit was hilarious. What a stupid cow.

Have you ever seen Ask A Ninja?
This is old but one of the best in my opinion.

Paul Begala vs Meghan McCain

So far I like Meghan M., but she shouldn't try to spar with Paul Begala. :biggrin:

She's a lot smarter when she keeps her mouth shut. Yikes. "well, like I wasn't born then. HELLO."

Metro Train: -2

I ride that train sometimes. I know exactly where that happened to!

FYI: Those trains run at 60MPH.

The DC metro is actually a verrryy safe rail system.

Cyrus you certainly enjoy watching things being hit by trains!

Although yeah, let's face it, all self inflicted. (well perhaps not the 2 train crashes)

And after all the work you did with the other trains, too! :-p

I like it because it demonstrates the truly awesome power these machines have. They take a school bus/tractor trailer and pluck them away like they were weightless.

Oh yeah, I (and I think most others) find it difficult to contemplate just what power they have without seeing it in action.

You might like the trains plowing snow videos if you haven't seen them yet. Youtube's got a bunch of those, too.

I've seen it! It's the CN rail (Canada). It shoots a wonderful fountain of snow 20 feet high! It's really impressive.

Forgive me for not wanting to trawl the 30 odd pages to get here. Although ironically I found it from a related link on one of your videos.
