I came across this video the other day at Vegan Momma's and just had to share it here. At first I was creeped out, but the more I research and learn about the origin and purpose (does there really need to be one?) of this ginormous puppet, the fonder I grow of her! I am fascinated with the creativity of this whole production. You can Google "Little Girl Giant" or you can head over to Up the Hill Gang...Blue and read more about her. Neat!

Robots for Sassy
I originally checked out this video feed because I thought it might be showcasing robots...and I thought I would be able to pass this info onto Sassy who needs some robots. What I discovered was much more!
This is actually a feed from the Digital Life gadget show and there were a lot of neat things..not just robots. The air hockey game and interactive advertising is completely cool! And the Cyclops thingy...got to have one of those!
I just thought you all would find this neat...

Post Experiment Video
Just when you thought you had seen the last of our cool experiment...here, for your entertainment it the extremely neato mosquito "post experiment-experiment"! Ha!! And we continue to have fun.....
A Chemical Reaction or Two!
We did a neat experiment for science today. It involved clear vinegar, baking soda and anthocyanin...cool beans!! Anthocyanin is found in red cabbage.
First, we boiled us up some ol' red cabbage leaves.
While the red cabbage leaves boiled, we very diligently added the baking soda to the balloon...ok...well...we weren't diligent at all, in fact we made a huge mess and ended up not adding the full amount of baking soda....but we took care of that later!
After we regained composure after the baking soda and balloon incident, we poured the really cool blue water that we got from boiling the red cabbage leaves into this neat Prego jar.
Outside, Nik poured the clear vinegar into the pop bottle and voila! The blue liquid turns pink!! And a pretty pink too!!!
We placed the balloon filled with baking soda onto the neck of the bottle...accidentally tore the balloon...wondered if it would work...
Discovered that yes, indeed, it did work! Since we had a smaller than recommended balloon, we didn't get a huge reaction but we got one. I'll have to post about the balloon adventure another time....
Being the smart guy he is, Nik noticed that the pink liquid had not turned back to blue like it was supposed to....so.....he has an idea....
Since we had to use a smaller balloon, there had not been enough baking soda dumped into the pop bottle to change the pink back to blue. Being the precise kinda guy he is (not!) he poured a bunch of baking soda into the pink liquid and sure enough, it turned back to blue! Smart one he is...I'm embarrassed to say that I would not have thought about that! lol!
And this is what we got! Cool!!
Good times, folks...good times!~

Utilikilt
Hey Sonya! I dedicate this post to your kilt-wearing husband! I really do prefer the plaid/tartans but these utilikilts are pretty neat too. I really wish the guy at the end of the feed would have worn a different shirt though!
Hmmmm...I like!!

Kinetic Sculpture
I just love how people are so creative! I just stumbled upon this video at YouTube about Theo Jansen who creates kinetic sculptures that are just incredible. I would love to see one of these in person....what a true genius...really!
