Wordless Wednesday

What do you guys think? Is it too much? LOL
I’m trying to figure out if this is some type of make up, body paint or if it’s an elaborate tattoo.
What do you think? Whatever it is I’m sure it took a long time to design and complete. There’s no way that I’d ever be caught walking around looking like that unless it was Halloween, a costume party or a really great joke that I was playing on a friend.
Would you ever cover your face and body with tattoos or body paint like this guy did? What would make you do that?

Now this is something that I can use, and I hope that you can too. Have you see some of the USB flash thumb drives in stores recently? I actually thought about getting one this past summer to help with transfer data from computer to computer or for when I go out of town. I could easily put my guitar tabs and music documents onto a flash drive and take them with me in case I wanted to use them on someone else’s computer.
I can think of so many practical uses for a portable thumb drive it’s unbelievable actually – music storage, your kid carry homework back to school on a USB drive, copying files from the work computer so you can work from home and on and on. The possibilities are endless. Well I think they are. What would you do with a thumb drive?
Pexagon tech is selling USB flash thumb drives right now for a very good price. 1 gb drives are going for $20.00 and 2 gm drives are $38.99; not only that- they are offering free laser engraving of your name or business name on the case. Wouldn’t that be handy if you laid your thumb drive down and forgot it? Whoever found it would know who to return it to, heck you could even have your phone number engraved on the case.
You can select a range sizes of thumb drives from 512 mb to 4 gb and you’ll have 5 different color choices for the case. I’m quite impressed with the design of the product, the small size and of course the pricing.

David Scholnick of Pacific University has a profound interest in how shrimp act when they get an infection. He gauges how they act by by building a tiny treadmill in order to run crustaceans through their paces to measure blood lactate levels.
I have this picture in my head of several shrimp lined up on treadmills with little towels behind their necks. LOL
Scholnick told livescience.com last October “As far as I know, this is the first time that shrimp have been exercised on a treadmill.” To increase the shrimps’ stress, Scholnick designed tiny backpacks out of duct tape but still found that healthy shrimp could go for about an hour without fatigue.
OMG I wish I had a photo of that. Can someone make me a cartoon of shrimp on a treadmill with little backpacks on their backs?
