Just in time for Father's Day

Here's a list of the best (and worst) T.V. dads. I'm not familiar with all of them, but it's interesting just the same. Who would you add to the list?

Try this

If you're weird like me, you sometimes talk to yourself, read aloud to yourself, and make smart-alec comments out loud, although you're the only one in the room. This happens to me often when I'm online.

Well here's Instant Rimshot, a nifty little tool that you can use to give your witty remarks a little more zing. It'll make you feel like you're a wacky morning-show DJ, or on a late-night talk show.

I wish I could figure out how to install it as an application on my desktop. For now I'll just leave it in its own little window, like my own little backup comedy posse.

I found this on the Presurfer, a random-interesting-thing website I've recently run across.

Runnin' with the Beatles

You like the Beatles. You like old-school Van Halen.
Now watch this.

Got quarters?

Found in Tokyo: walking Coke bots that are actual vending machines. They are modeled after a desktop-size (11'') coin bank popular in Japan. I would simply have to buy a Coke from one, whether I was thirsty or not.

Now here's something you wouldn't expect to find in a vending machine: live bait! Some visionary converted a refrigerated sandwich-vending machine into a 24/7 bait shop. So many others are converting machines for this purpose, vending companies are designing one specifically for it. Nifty!

Neatorama has many more weird examples of machines like these, including ones for iPods, porn, and toilet paper.
