Purse of the encavator

I started with "Grab Bag", as in "miscellaneous collection". It was the babelizer that turned it into the Purse of the Encavator.

Anyway, here are a few miscellaneous links I've encountered in the last few days ...

  • Weird mystery electrical equipment, from the "Mike's Electric Stuff" page ...

  • Coulrophobia is the official psychological term given to the irrational fear of clowns.

    I'll just add: it's not always irrational.

  • On his yellowtext weblog, Andy Inhatko sez:
    Something just occurred to me. The Beatles are missing one lead singer and one guitarist. The Who are now short a drummer and a bass player. Should these four guys at least take a meeting together or something?

    [ Andy calls his whole site "CWOB" — it seems only fitting for GIGO to have a link to "Collosal Waste Of Bandwidth", doesn't it? ]

  • Mac Net Journal had an entry a few days ago that talked about URL Manager Pro.

    There was also a pointer (from MNJ, I think) to a weblog about Applescript ...

    And it in turn had a link to X-Commands (at kanzu.com)

    "X-Commands contains nearly five dozen new commands for AppleScripters in Mac OS X. Some of the commands include:
    • Keyboard and mouse simulation
    • Autotype text (type key using command, etc)
    • System Info
    • Screen Info
    • Interface commands (display message, display progress)
    • String commands (hex to string, sort strings, etc.)
    Many example scripts are included.
