Scarred For Life

New comic. Click Here. I warn you. It's extremely not safe for work. Lots of balls.

It's based on a true story. Of course, it's been embellished greatly for a comedic effect. That is all.

Carzorthade Guest Comic

Hey all. I've not been updating as much as I'd like to. Busy with being not busy. You know. Anyways. My friend Chris over at Carzorthade has been pretty busy, also. So busy, in fact, that he's fallen prey to the "Oh yeah... I've just been busy. I'll be updating again soon. Just be patient" beast. So, I made up a guest comic for him. You can find it at his site, or here, on Poonheads.

I just made it as kind of an inside joke. Poking fun at a buddy. But I've been told that it's pretty funny on its own. Apparently, puppets are pretty funny in and of themselves. Who knew?

Poontonic

My new favorite drink: PoonTonic, or a P&T for short. Basically, put some tang in a glass (2 Tablespoons/half a scoop). Add tonic water in place of normal water. I use Diet Tonic water, cuz I need to watch my figure. Stir briskly. The tonic gives it an extra flavor and a little fizz. You can also mix up a whole batch in a Poonjug, but that requires shaking and waiting for the tonic to settle down and all sorts of hassles. I just do it per serving in a glass. It's good. I encourage you try it.

Facts:

1. Tonic water will cost you around 50 cents per liter. Which is cheaper than regular water, considering you'd pay about a dollar for a 20oz bottle.


2. Tonic water contains quinine. It has all sorts of magic powers. It glows under a black light and is supposed to act as an anti-inflammatory. So, it's good for muscle aches. Wikipedia Reference


3. Tonic water, alone, tastes sort of citrusy and bitter. It's not bad, but it's better when mixed with poon.

Cheers

Moving in Stereo

As some of you may know, one of my many hobbies is stereoscopy. That is, taking 3D pictures. The concept is simple. You have two eyes. Each eye sees things from a slightly different perspective, thus creating depth. This effect can be duplicated with cameras by taking a picture with two cameras (a few inches apart) at the same time. Then, if you put the two pictures side-by-side, and cross your eyes so that the images overlap, you get a 3D picture.

With a 'stereo pair', you can do all sorts of other things. You can make an animated "Time-Space Jiggle", where the animation flashes on image, then the other, then the first, etc. tricking the mind into seeing depth. You can use a computer program to create a depth map. You can make up one of those "red-blue" 3d glasses images. You can even make a magic eye.

So what's my point? Well. Yesterday, I finished setting up a server in my room. This would be the 3rd computer in my room: My laptop, my desktop, and now my server. I was explaining to a friend about how awesomely geeky I feel, now that I have 3 monitors closely surrounding me for no real reason. He told me to take a picture. So I did one better. I took a stereograph. And, for your viewing pleasure, I present to you... My desk setup in 3D:

• The Stereograph Just cross your eyes until the two images are on top of each other


• The Animation with Time Space Jiggle. No eye crossing required

One day, I'll trade in my cheapo home made stereo camera for something that takes decent pictures. Until then, I'll continue using this baby.

So, until next time.
