Priorities in order

My niece Marah's second 2nd Birthday cake (to keep from overwhelming her with relatives, each side of the family got a separate party) was topped by a Playmobil doctor and patient-in-bed. She went straight for the toys and was hardly interested in the cake. Go Marah!

Awww, cute. And deadly.

2" long working revolver.

Yeah, even though it's theoretically lethal, on its own it's a novelty. The part that's potentially scary is the existence of 3mm ammo. You could build a sports watch that held two or three of these bullets and used electric "firing pins" to get a wrist-mounted weapon that might well get through security (you take off the "watch" and stick it in the security tray, then get it back after you're wanded through). Press and hold one of the buttons for 10 seconds to fire all the bullets at point blank range. Just make sure your hand is in the right position so you don't shoot yourself. ;)

Marah Video Letter: Craft Corner

Craft Corner. This one's about a minute, and I borrowed a microphone from work so hopefully the sound quality's better. :)

jaAmMaster Hot Shot!

Done for an AllSpark Art Challenge, "Invent a new gimmick". Mine is jaAmMasters, which spew out sugary goop. One of the other AllSparkers is going to help me arrange this into a mock-up print ad covered in increasingly-"WTF?" managerial comments. Made from a McDonalds Armada Hot Shot, a little coin-op capsule, and a lot of hot glue.
