yotam’s post

Saturday, January 10th, 2009

this week yotam sent me a link to snopes, urban legends refference pages.

snopes is divided to sections like food, music, politics etc. the statements are then marked as true / false / undetermined and more… here are a few examples:

a mixture of coca cola and mentos killed two brazilian kids - false

eating celery results in negative calories- true

they also post stories purely because they appeal to the readers. they don’t vouch for the reliability of these stories. here’s a nice one:

A Texas death row inmate with a history of mental problems pulled out his only good eye and told authorities he ate it.

yotam sent me a link to nina saunders’ morphed furniture ages ago.

nina saunders takes traditional furniture pieces and morphs them beyond practicality.

i don’t know why i haven’t posted this yet. guess i waited for the right moment.

have a great week!
