The Problem with New Year's Resolutions

Tingman filmed his four-year-old daughter Laura talking about New Year resolutions. She's right. The new year shouldn't be the only time we decide to make changes in our lives. Food for thought.

But that's not what makes this video special. She four years old! No, she didn't write this speech. She's probably not reading cue cards. But even if she was fed lines one at a time, she's got amazing presence and inflection, which makes her the cutest motivational speaker you will hear this week. Watch a video of Laura playing piano at age two.  -via Metafilter

Failed prototype of a seeing eye robot head. Failed because you can see that there are outlines for eyes but they have not been installed.

Not since my Norwegian childhood have I seen one of these old-fashioned lefse rollers! It was a holiday tradition for the people of each village annually to produce large amounts of this thin, delicious, potato bread. I fondly remember my grandma loading flour and smashed potatoes into the back of this device, then slowly turning the knob to lay the lefse out on the cooking surface. When the bread was about ten inches long, she'd flick the sliding lever on the top and the razor-sharp blade inside would neatly snip it off. Woe to the child--woe I say!--would would stick his curious fingers inside to feel around. I still have a line of scars across the tips of my fingers from touching that blade!

It's a chewing gum recycler. Put your pre-chewed chewing gum in one end. Turn the knob and a fresh flat stick of chewing gum comes out the other end.

Isn't that one of those pre-digital teletype thingies for spitting out stock market activities? I think it just might be!

It is a do-it-yourself tongue piercing machine: insert tongue, roll it forward with the knob, slide the little grey button forward, voila'! You now have the power to irritate any parent you may meet in your travels by merely speaking to them while your tongue stud clicks constantly on your teeth! It sells itself!

It's a prehistoric typewriter. Before language was developed, there was only one letter in the alphabet. You would type that letter by pressing the button on top. The knob on the side advanced the paper. You could type out your story: Oo oo ooooo!
