If you like design you might like this. (not to worry it is perfectly safe and rated "F" for Family Viewing)

Anyone have anything interesting they found online?

Ah, once I realized that the Zeta Reticulans were monitoring my thoughts through the dental implants, the spy satellites didn't bother me so much. :wink:

I do, however, still enjoy triggering those keyword sensors...

Kilo! Kilo! Kilo!

Duuuuuude, thanks for making me laugh at work on a miserably wet Friday the 13th!

:D

Just to clarify - your trigger words are different from your danger words, right?

:wink:

OK, I know computer generated speech is nothing new, but I just came across this free interactive sampler...

You can convert up to 30 words at a time in several different languages. So far my favorite is "this computer will self destruct in five seconds."

:D

Wow this is more fun than I expected. But since I am at work...what wouldnt be?

Though I was disappointed, hearing the american voice say "Do you want to play a game" wasn't as much fun as I thought it would be. But the Reiner the german saying Alles ist Meine! was fun, and making Rosa curse in spanish was cool too. But nothing beats the brit saying "Bloody hell chap! Those are some big fuzzy yarbles." I had to get some Clockwork Orange in there just to see if it would say it.

Egad! :shock:

I can't see my house because of the logos and the trees with leaves still on them (the photo was taken when?). That's just as well. Don't want you lunatics to find me. :D

I want to be able to put that clock/calendar on my wall. It's fascinating.

So that's where MSCL.com is housed? You know what this means...

ROAD TRIP TO BUTLER! THE KEG IS ON ME!

(hehe...)

Everyones welcome to stop by sometime... although I think you'd be disapointed seeing the server sitting quitely under my desk looking rather dusty, as I am currently remodling the house.

As for the keg, I'll warn you that if my friends findout that there's a keg coming to my place they will show up (even bring a beermister for it) and sometimes they make fun of my MSCL obsession . :D But you might be able to get a couple of them on your side with a good comic book discussion.
