Mech-in-the-Shop heeded the call about neat black stuff. Here's some: ferrofluid.

When you get into the sections where it's just the black ferrofluid, it's either the way Event Horizon was originally supposed to end, or There Will Be Blood as written by Neal Stephenson.

Just for the record: Needcoffee does not specifically endorse this candidate for president. No matter how compelling his platform seems.

We're taking a somewhat longer view on things and will be announcing our plans shortly.

Alien on the London Underground

Gareth Ellner, the Alien, having some coffee

Here's an amusing vid: Gareth Ellner created an Alien costume for himself. He makes appearances helping to raise money for charity along with his amigos in the UK Colonial Marines. Here he goes on the London Underground to amuse the masses. I love the woman at 1:22: "Hmph. Geeks."

I wish I could embed the vid here but the BBC is funny about that. I mean, Gareth: they didn't even link your website, man.

Hey, it looks like the UKCM are coming for DragonCon. Nice.

Haunted Mansion Northside

Hatbox Ghost from Haunted Mansion-Northside

Boing Boing linked up the Haunted Mansion-Northside blog because Cory was drooling all over the pics of how the creator turned his office into the ultimate Haunted Mansion fan's dream workplace. And rightly so: it's really frighteningly good. No pun intended.

Jamie, the creator, says "Now...people either say it is the coolest thing they've ever seen or I need professional help." Dude: both. Seriously: both.

But that's just the tip of the coolness iceberg (again, no pun intended). This guy Jamie, an animator, also helps put sunken ships in people's yards, sculpted his own bat in a birdcage, and created a haunted mine tunnel. Incredibly badass.

As long as you can make it past the obnoxious narration and the laugh track, you've got something that will make Dindrane very, very happy.
