The Only Thing The Borderline Boy Needs In This Life Is A Worthy Adversary
An adversary is one thing, but poor Biorn has met his match.
Can I Have Your LEGOs?
Honorary Borderline Sociopathic Boy Streaty appears to be hanging up his… well, I guess his thumbs. He’s likely getting on in years, (too tall for the rides now) and needs to move on to a more adult focus for his life; probably raising sharks and outfitting them with lasers or something. Streaty, we salute you!
World’s Only Cool Bicycle Helmet
Jonathan Summerfield built a “pennyfarthing,” a version of the first bicycles. They called it a pennyfarthing because the big wheel in the front with a much smaller trailing wheel looked like a British penny next to a British farthing coin. Like so, from Wikipedia:
Between 2006 and 2008, Jonathan cycled 22,000 miles on his machine, visiting 22 countries along the way. He has a profoundly unattractive white-text-on-black-background webpage with lot’s of apostrophe’s here and there that’s fun to poke around in. His running journal summary is kind of a hoot, with Pythonesque “My knees gave out — again,” anecdotes over and over. He never did burn and crash into the swamp, though.
Listen, lad. I built this kingdom up from nothing. When I started
here, all there was was swamp. Other kings said I was daft to build a
castle on a swamp, but I built it all the same, just to show 'em. It sank
into the swamp. So, I built a second one. That sank into the swamp. So
I built a third one. That burned down, fell over, then sank into the
swamp. But the fourth one... stayed up! And that's what you're gonna get,
lad: the strongest castle in these islands.
