Built by some enterprising and generally awesome people at Team Hassenplug Monster Chess contains over 100,000 LEGO® pieces, plays chess automatically and features animated chess pieces.
It’s actually even better than the monster chess aboard the Millennium Falcon. That’s saying something.
That’s it. After years of being a card cerrying metalhead I have to give up. Because of this. Mark Gormley. The greatest song, by the greatest rockstar in the greatest video ever. Witness the glory of him moving from foot to foot, or talking to someone (probably a spirit guide) off screen. I am converted to his singer songwriter ways. All hail Gormley!! LINK
New York, New York! A city so dangerous they warned you twice, today racks up yet more points on the ‘reasons not to visit La Guardia’ list (Which I’m mainly basing on that episode of Seinfeld) after a fantastically awesome display by pilot Captain Chesley Sullenberger saw him safely land his airbus A320 in the Hudson river! No news yet on the causes, but it seems the flight was only in the air for 3 minutes before Sullenburger decided to take a swim. Luckily for all on board a couple of broken legs were the worst injuries (although all 155 passengers can look forward to dysentry from swallowing that water pretty soon).
