I am building a small RC plane that will be small and light enough to fly indoors. It uses carbon fiber rods to reinforce it. Carbon fiber is awesome - it feels as strong as steel but much, much lighter.
One more cool thing we didn't have when I was growing up. It makes the flying car thing feel not so bad....

Looking through the year-end issue of Entertainment Weekly they had several celebrities chiming in about their Must Have pop cultural entertainment and there were several interesting overlaps with the board.
SMG loves Pushing Daisies (and was just in a movie with Lee Pace).
Jenna Fischer loves Friday Night Lights.
Jason Batemen loves Keith Olberman and thinks everybody should watch it at least twice a day.
SMG has good taste.
I am FREEZING. The house is damned cold today. But in honor of this holiday, I offer you, Noah transfixed by the Christmas tree lights picture.
Kyle Chandler fans: Season one of Early Edition is coming out on dvd in June!
Jason Bateman and KO are totally fantasy baseball BFFs.(I learned that from Countdown, which likes carrots)
Although playing fantasy baseball with him must be sort of...thankless, in a way.
Also, KO thinks Arrested Development is, like the funniest shit ever that isn't the Simpsons or Stewie Griffin.ETA: not thankless, but probably like "name That Tune" with Hecubus. Who's more likely to win? Right?
Probably not me. Although I understood from one interview that Bateman made some sneaky trades that kept Keith off-balance for a while.
And whose birthday did I forget to make room for that?
Mentionitis, much?
Am utterly SLAYED by stocking containing Noah. Oh. My. Lord. So cute.
America’s Most Literate Cities, 2007
Drawing from a variety of available data resources, the America’s Most Literate Cities study ranks the 69 largest cities (population 250,000 and above) in the United States. This study focuses on six key indicators of literacy: newspaper circulation, number of bookstores, library resources, periodical publishing resources, educational attainment, and Internet resources.
I was surprised San Francisco was only #7.
