Behold A Ketchup Fountain: A French Fry Lover’s Dream
I've been writing about food a lot lately. Maybe I just need to get my butt out of this computer chair and go buy some groceries instead of listening to my stomach call to me as I write about all these different creative foodie things. Nah... that wouldn't be nearly as much fun.

Apple’s ‘Let’s Talk iPhone’ Keynote: Some Mind Blowing Stats
I'm watching the Apple event online right now, like almost everyone I know.

Blind People vs. American Paper Money
This is fascinating to me, and it's something I've always wondered about. Here in the United States, all of our paper money is exactly the same except for the printing on the paper.
