Looks like fun


Photograph of 100,000 bouncy balls dropped at once down a street. Mark Frauenfelder: Picture 18 umgrue says: "Here's 100,000 tiny rubber superballs bouncing down a hilly street of SF."

Man pulls over cop


Something interesting happened to me yesterday.
I was driving along Salisbury Highway on the way to my place of employment, sometimes following, sometimes being followed by a police car with only one officer inside. I noticed something not quite right.
I sped up (I was following at the time) to drive alongside the policeman. I attracted his attention and made the universal gesture to "pull over driver".
The policeman looked puzzled, but indeed did pull over to the side of the road. I pulled in ahead of him just as police cars do for offending drivers.
I left my car and walked over to his door, just as the police do with offending drivers.
He wound down his window, just as offending drivers do.
He said,"Yes?"
I said, "Were you aware that your left brake light was inoperative?"
"No. Thanks, I'll get it fixed."
We both drove away.
Of course, the building I work in is next to the building he works in, so we stayed together for several more kilometres and drove into a more or less shared car park.
I just wish I'd been able to give him a ticket.
