Supercow.net – Page 3 – Random things I want to share.

I heard about this site the other day from tatumba.com so I decided to check it out. Apparently its supposed to be a social network site like facebook or myspace the only difference being that they share advertising revenue with the users. So I figure it’s at least worth a try. I went ahead and saved supercow there in case it gets big! So take a look and if you sign up make sure to use the link below to list me as your referrer.

I just stumbled upon this incredibly cool car over on ebay. It’s the 1904 Thomas Model 27 Racer and at first it looks just like any old car. The important thing is the engine. 12.3 liters!!! Thats incredibly large! It’s only making 60 hp but for it’s time that might as well have been a thousand. Check out the chain driven rear end, in motorcycle style. Not to mention the vin number… 2735! LOL, just go check out the vin of your car. You might have a little trouble memorizing it. From what I can tell the distributor is inside the car and you control the timing by turning that dial. I have no idea what the brass manifold inside he car is for though and there are more switches there than cylinders.

Take a look at the gallery for all the photo’s.

31 Cent Scoop Night!!

Be excited, be very excited.

So who’s going? We should all go after church Wednesday night. Did we go to this last year or was that a different night? BTW, no taking pictures of me this time!

Btw, bring a dollar for the firefighters.  They need new axes!!!

Me and Jordan just finished up pulling the transmission out of his car tonight and we seem to have found the problem:

..just kidding jordan. 😉 (more…)

xkcd techno

Bahahaahaha!!! I’m sending this to trever now…

Me and my friend Trever have this on going debate whether or not techno is actually good. I of course take the side that it is just about 15 seconds worth of work repeated for 5 minutes to an "artistic" fade out. When your listening to music and are reminded of windows 98 because is sounds like the pc locked up and is looping five seconds of the mp3 the way 98 and winamp used too then you know your listening to techno .

sacred cow
I just stumbled upon this collection of photo’s of the sacred cows of India.

I was always under the impression that Hindus saw all cows as sacred but apparently this isn’t universal and only some cows in some area’s are sacred cows . Of course being a Christian I see worshiping any animal or other earthly item as sacreligious so the reverence shown towards a cow seems unusual. This reminds me a lot of the stories Baal in the old testament except their cow was made of gold and was a replacement for God rather than a earthly representation like the sacred cows of India. The cows seem to be some sort of good luck charm. Apparently you can get good luck for the day by feeding them snacks or certain foods at different times of the day. Countries like this seem to be a completely different world away from the USA. The picture of the man that is apparently starving to death next to a sacred cow is especially disturbing.

Want to climb a wall or leap buildings? Me too. I think I’ll get there in just a couple more weeks of these workouts .

Vista x86 / 32-bit Update (~435 Megs)

Service pack one is finally out! While this might seems like a unimportant event for the average person tons of businesses, schools, and individuals wait for the initial service pack of a windows OS to adopt it as their default platform. So this means update your systems and expect to see vista even more than you currently do.

Even wonder how the web works? Well here’s a video to show you just how everything gets put together!

I was just browsing around and found xkcd . It’s halarious, check it out. I did stumble upon a poster in the store of the photo of Internet Communities I posted a while back. I wasn’t sure where it came from… but now I know!
