_03:37 pm_[Link] When I was but I wee lass, I had this Atari game that I loved. It was by Fisher Price, of all people-I think it was called "Dance fantasy" because that's what google comes up with. It wasn't really a 'game'-you had about 10 dance moves, and you could program a girl and boy dancer to go through the moves. I still remember the song. I think I've just discovered the 25-years-later, Japan-does-it-better version of the program. Sadly, that means it's a bazillion times more complex and I don't have the free time I had when I was pre-schooler, but if I can figure out how to use it/how to get it/if it really is what I think it is I might still play with it. I realize I'm probably the only person in the world geeking out to this program out of preschool nostalgia, but still. The yays. Edit: Holy cats. There's an emulator for Dance Fantasy?

_01:48 pm_[Link] Mango God?Deus de MangoFor Tracey, mostly. Don't give me ideas, I have image editing software and I'm learning to use it.... This, obviously, is but one manifestation of the wonder that is the Mango God. I suspect it might be one of the more heretical interpretations.

_01:15 am_[Link] 100 things we didn't know this time last yearFrom the BBC site, so it's slightly slated towards British findings, but fascinating nonethless. The list includes geeky highlights like: Actor James Doohan, who played Scotty, had a hand in creating the Klingon language that was used in the movies, and which Shakespeare plays were subsequently translated into.And not so geeky things, like: It's possible for a human to blow up balloons via the ear. A 55-year-old factory worker from China reportedly discovered 20 years ago that air leaked from his ears, and he can now inflate balloons and blow out candles.Nifty.
