I bring to you Handy Hand a.k.a. Omnidexterous. This eventually happens to humans because we need to type faster than ever in the future where there is so much information to keep track of and so many people to keep in touch with.
The above picture scared the hell out of my mom, so much she had to turn her computer off. She asked me to make a cuter version. I took off all but two little hands and it is still scary. Sorry Mom.

Kraft Buys Moon
The evolution of advertising. Kraft purchases the Moon from Neil Armstrong (who, it turns out, legally owns it because he signed his name in the dust first). Kraft uses the Moon as a giant billboard and deems it “Space Kraft.” After the initial chuckle, citizens of Earth begin to protest the Moon’s defacing. Outrage is heightened when Kraft’s CEO, Chuck Roberts, gave a speech earlier this morning, claiming “Kraft had every right to do this because the Moon is ours and I always believed the satellite was made of cheese.” Earth’s profit participation in Kraft brings new intergalactic wealth to the planet, sending Alpha Centauri’s Jabooli Centavo in the toilet.
Doritos (Frito Lay) Stakes Claim to the Giza Pyramids
The evolution of advertising. Doritos (Frito Lay) originally wanted to replace the sand around the Pyramids with “orange cheese dust,” but environmentalists protested the action claiming it would not only wreak havoc on the local flora and fauna but could cause terrible allergic reactions in humans (much like Doritos do). Doritos (Frito Lay) and lobbyists eventually reached a compromise – print the Doritos logo on the Pyramids themselves. The Egyptian government is pleased with the new source of revenue, but tourists are displeased.
Viagra’s New Guerilla Campaign, A Success?
The evolution of advertising. US Citizens were appalled today when Viagra painted their logo on the Washington Monument, not because they ruined an American icon, but because it was just too damn obvious. Coca-Cola, the owner of the monument, is suing.

We are so stressed in the future because of over-population, over-stimulation, and increasing demands that we evolve to grow a “skin chimney” or a stressus propulus that looks much like a snork on the top left side of our head’s. It keeps us from having a stroke by spewing forth blood clots and strange gunk in times of stress.
The skin chimney grows in size with us and as we get older it sags. Stressed out peoples sag early, but there is medication, corrective surgery, and braces to help with that. Lot’s of folks customize their “chimney” – getting it tattooed like a brick chimney, encrusting it in gold dust or diamonds for that bling-bling look, mutilating and piercing it, etc.
just feel the left side of your head now, feel that little bump? It’s gonna happen and you read it here first.

In the future there are no public restrooms and traffic becomes so horrible that you can’t ever make it anywhere in time to pee. So naturally with these impediments, our bladders evolve and become 5 – 7 times its current size so that we can hold our pee for 14 – 18 hours.
Amazing how the bladder grows down over the upper quadriceps femoris. Just incredible!
p.s. I had a dream last night that I went ahead and had a surgery to make my bladder bigger. It such a weird dream. The doctor was taunting me, do you want to be true to your work, then do this, make your bladder bigger as an example. I did, it was strange.

This is so much fun!!! This was my friend Joe’s Idea. All you do is yell “over here” on a crowded street, in a store, from your car, wherever. Yell and watch. This video is kinda bad, but you get the point. Do it yourself and post videos to the over here group.
Notice everyone else looking about – “who the hell is he yelling at?”
Sorry for the bad video quality. More of these to come.

This really exists, Union Square Parking Garage, San Francisco.
Starting this day forth, every week I will post a theme, like this past week’s theme was evil, and I will make posts according to that theme. Weekends will be “free days” for all the other stuff. Seems good. You like that idea or is it too confining?
Sneak peak of next week’s theme………………………………………………………………………..evolution.

This is the future of daytime court television programming. It’s evil and just dumb enough to appeal to the daytime audiences that are most likely hopped up/ plopped down on a cocktail of daytime pills.
The presiding judge is Count von Count.
The defendants on the show are folks accused by their neighbors, co-workers, friends, or family of being a servant of Satan (i.e. “possessed”). Occasionally, animals would be prosecuted as well.
If the defendant is pronounced guilty, s/he will be immediately sentenced. Then The Count would count the years of the sentence one by one with that awesome Roma music playing in the background; occasionally he would turn to the camera and give us a deep maniacal laugh (depending on the sentence, this could be a huge portion of the show… just see how long it takes to count to 180).
Once the sentence has been counted out in its entirety, the defendant would be released and have to go through an obstacle course while being chased by an angry mob equipped with torches, rakes, shovels, and spiked clubs. The guilty would be given a 30-second head start.
Slayer or Iron Maiden or a cover band of either would be the show’s official band. 90% of the people on the show would be guilty. The prosecutor would be the accuser, and if they are wrong in their accusation, they will be sentenced. That’s The Count’s rules.

This is awesome and very evil, which is the theme this week, btw. All you need is you and a friend – each of you make an eye and take a picture.
That is at the mossy water falls of Limekiln State Park in Big Sur.
