Here are three random little links that I came across recently, and I decided to share. Maybe it can inject 5-10 minutes of entertainment into your meaningless lives. :googly:
The Mona Lisa done in Microsoft Paint. (http://www.geekologie.com/2007/05/painting_the_mona_lisa_with_ms.php)
Really crazy LEGO sculptures (http://www.cnn.com/interactive/entertainment/0705/gallery.lego.art/frameset.exclude.html)
NES Mouse (http://www.geekologie.com/2007/07/nes_gamepad_mouse.php)

Holy Crap. Thanks for the moments of intrigue. o.o
This lego piece (http://i.a.cnn.net/cnn/interactive/entertainment/0705/gallery.lego.art/07.lego.art.jpg) was pretty damn amazing. (The Lego Man/Mirror.)

Nice finds. That Mona Lisa in MS Paint... wow. I have little to no artistic talent and I am just amazed at what he was able to do with that. That was pretty cool.

Yeah, that was pretty sick. If I were shown a picture of the Mona Lisa drawn in MS paint by hand, I could believe it seeing as how people have done amazing things with MS paint. I wouldn't be able to believe it if they said it was done in 2 hours though without this sped up movie showing the actual painting going on.

That Mona Lisa paint example was one of the most amazing feats of man in a while, and that lego guy is an arteest.

I was thinking that they tried this many times over and then finally figured out the best way to do it and recorded it. I still have a hard time believing it was done in only two hours like you said.

Dude! Those rule. Especially the Legos.
*stares off into space* I...I always wanted...to be a Lego sculpter, to...create, to dream, to imagine.

They guy who created the LEGO sculptures was on the Colbert Report tonight. He showed a LEGO sculpture of Stephen Colbert that took him about 2 weeks to make made of around 30,000 pieces. Pretty cool. If you didn't catch it, try to catch the reruns later tonight or during the day tomorrow.

I've seen them before but seeing them again is still marveling. It surprises me what all can be done with Legos. Such artistic pieces they are. All of them.

I really like the NES mouse. And the caption at the bottom is pretty interesting. I would be really cool to somehow turn a NES controller into and MP3 player.

I saw the guy on the Colbert report. Turned the tv on as he was introducing him. I can't believe he did that whole thing in two weeks.

I thought it rocked too. The artist who drew that is now part of the team working on the new Contra game.

^^How is that even possible? Imagine if he had 100 square feet to work with, it would look amazing. Not that what he did isn't amazing.
Pretty impressive, I'd love to have one of my own nes mice.
