I’ll tell you something about yourself. You may think, “You know what, self? I’m not really interested in how chicken wire is made.”  But you’re wrong.  

Watch this, and tell me you’re not a little bit fascinated at the way the machine twists the wire together to make a fence.

I do it every year, but I’m always willing to have company. I hereby propose a toast to Charles Dickens, on today his 200th birthday.
Cheers, Charles.
Oh, and a shameless plug: you should get my friend John’s new book about Charles Dickens. It’s pretty great.

Astounding. These anatomical cross-sections of a human body are made of tiny paper strips, a fringe craft called ‘quilling.’

I think it’s pretty obvious we need these posters of shipping containers for the office.

I love this fun idea from the Multnomah County Library.  Wrapped books for Christmas; you can check them out with their RFID scanner, and unwrap them at home to find out what book you’ve selected.  All the fun of a christmas present, and the no-hassle return policy of a library.  
Except, you know, you HAVE to bring it back or else they’ll fine you.
