Superuseless Superpowers

Complementary Chameleon:
The superuseless chameleon assumes the complementary color of his surroundings, thereby rendering him highly un-hard to see. This superpower was inspiration for the failed children’s book franchise titled “There’s Waldo.”
Looks like it's just getting started, but it shows promise. Some are less useless than others, with a little imagination.

These are a lot of fun. Roy Doty has been sending his Christmas cards to friends a associates since 1946. This year, he'll be hand-addressing upwards of 500.

btw, I wasn't sure at first if the artist was the same James Cauty from the KLF, but apparently it is. I assumed that because the Telegraph article made no mention of it, that it was a different guy.

Paper Rad and Tokion Project/04

Tokion:
Now is your chance to work together with the Providence-based art collective, Paper Rad, made up of Jessica and Jacob Ciocci and Ben Jones. As part of the “Project” series of commissioned interactive art projects, Tokion and Paper Rad want you to use the power of creativity and collage to mix and match a new zany character design. Simply log on to www.tokion.com/project for directions. Show us what you can create. Post your responses and view the creations of others.
And if you're an epileptic, watch out for that Paper Rad website. Man, my head is spinning. If you duck out of that phantasmagoria, you'll find all sorts of neat stuff.

Peanuts Tarot

This one's been around for a while, but hey, it's Sunday.
Sadly, the whole set is no longer available for viewing, best I can find. It's blocked on the Internet Archive, but you can see a few more here and here.

And now he's going to be in a different kind of "sleeper cell" for another couple of decades.

Teleportation, time travel and aliens - a vision of tomorrow today
Professor Michio Kaku has ruled out time travel for at least a few millennia, but believes invisibility cloaks and telepathy could be possible this century.

A DIY tip from Felonius Ramblings:
Go Green or Go Home: Wipe Your Ass w/ 1 Piece of Toilet Paper
I don't think this is what Sheryl Crow had in mind.

Finally, from the "I'd wager your Sunday paper doesn't have video" page:
UT friendly, The Presurfer, posted this incredible video.
El Caminito del Rey is a walkway pinned along the steep walls of a narrow gorge in El Chorro, near Alora in Spain. It's in really bad shape and many have died walking it. Even though local authorities have closed off access, people still sneak in and give it a go.
I had a strong visceral reaction watching this video, but I have height issues.

Have a great Sunday and come back fresh and ready for more Uncertain Times.

Sunday Excursions: Monday Morning Edition
It's not really Monday until the sun comes up...

Disgruntled? Maybe you should move to place where the grass is green and the girls are gruntled. Careerbuilder.com's National Gruntledness Index might be of help. Click on the states and cities to see ratings for various career fields.
It looks like Savannah workers are fairly gruntled. They nailed the low rating for the restaurant field, which is painfully obvious if you're familiar with the food culture here.

When I tire of prowling the internet for primal opioid satisfaction, I like to curl up with some brain-warping specualtion about life, the universe and seven-dimensional branes.
A good source of this can found by Imagining the Tenth Dimension. Rob Bryanton guides us through the realms of time and space and those elusive extra-dimensional realities. Rob is a really cool guy and he's really into this stuff. His enthusiasm is contagious.

And last, but not least, UT friendly Alan Evil posted an excellent linkdump of his morning coffee funnies. I'm glad to see that the internet has helped to keep this medium alive and relevant. We might be able to do without newspapers, but what would we do without the comics?

Be seeing you...
