Sunday Burst of Weirdness

Oddities abound!

:: You know what’s always good for amusement? Chinese translated to English!

:: SDB points this out:

This looks like a blast (heh), although I have to call BS on the “house of bricks”, since it’s not a structure: it’s just a wall, with no mortar at all between the bricks. You could walk up to that and knock it over with a stick. But still, the vortex cannon looks fun. I want one!

:: This is “weird” in the sense of “I would never have known about this if not for the Interweb”. There’s a place in India that is the wettest place on Earth, where the natives cross the local waterways via bridges — made from the living roots of trees. Wow. Some stunning photography here.

More next week!
