Falling With Style

This is an amazing and fast way down a sand dune. Cool.

June 25th is now Arbitrary Day

So you wonder where I get all my crazy video and news of the weird. Well I read a bunch of different sites. The one I read most frequently is Reddit. Well at Christmas time they had a gift exchange. They decided to do it again but this time just pick an arbitrary day. So now June 25th is now Arbitrary Day! It is a secret Santa type exchange and I played along this time. From their web page:
...modeled on the typical Secret Santa exchange, only with more online, and more awesome. Interested parties sign up, people are assigned gift recipients by the computer machine, and then they do their best to surprise and delight their random stranger, and are surprised/delighted in turn.
I have already sent off my gift and received mine as well. I got my gift from someone named zip_000 and I sent mine to a guy named cowlike...he did not give me much to go on so I had to use my creativity. I will include a link when he post receipt of the gift. I have included a picture here of what my gift was and you can go here to see more pictures of my gift and my write up. You can go here to see the gifts that people have gotten that the most people think were the most awesome, one guy got 1500$ and others got iPods and such...oh and plenty of bacon! Anyway I just thought that I would share a bit of my internet life with you. Fun, huh?
