Templesmith really is an amazing artist:

The above is the cover for the upcoming POPGUN Vol. 4 anthology.

I think writers’ room for the show EUREKA contains the single awesomest, and probably nerdiest, wall clock ever:

For a better view of it, go to this post on the official EUREKA writers’ blog and scroll down. It should be the fifth picture.

Uncommon Goods sells it for $25, and will also include a cheat sheet for those of us who don’t possess Ph.D’s in mathematics from MIT:

12 – a radical
1 – Legendre’s constant is a mathematical constant occurring in a formula conjectured by Adrien-Marie Legendre to capture the asymptotic behavior of the prime-counting function. Its value is now known to be exactly 1.
2 – A joke in the math world: An infinite number of mathematicians walk into a bar. The first one orders a beer. The second orders half a beer. The third, a quarter of a beer. The bartender says, “You’re all idiots,” and pours two beers.
3 – A unicode character XML “numeric character reference.”

I actually knew what 8:00 is — an illustration of binary code — so I guess I’m not a complete #MathFail.

These Bookbooks are very cool, and I would very much like to have one. The only issue is that they are designed for MacBooks, but I bet with some fiddling my Toshiba Satellite could be made to fit in the 15″ model.

Protecting your MacBook is a top priority and it’s job one for BookBook. Slip your Mac inside the velvety soft, padded interior. Zip it closed and your baby is nestled between two tough, rigid leather hardback covers for a solid level of impact absorbing protection. The rigid spine serves as crush protection for an additional line of defense. BookBook creates a hardback book structure that safeguards your MacBook like few other cases can. Far better than any floppy neoprene bag ever will. End of story.

I also wouldn’t mind owning one of these doormats shaped like an “Enter” key:

A doormat like this says: “Enter if you like, but beware — you may not return.” Get it? Return? Like, as in the “Enter” key is sometimes called the “Return” key?
