I don't know why links have been accumulating more easily of late, but here's another pasta salad:

• Want to demonstrate how good your surgical waldo is? Use it to fold an origami crane smaller than a penny. (via)
  
  
• How to fold a t-shirt in 2 seconds, explained. (via)
  
  
• The world's largest, emptiest mall. (via)
  
  
• Escher in LEGO. (via)
  
  
• "Are Internet trolls actually just characters in badly-written fiction?"
  
  
• "Things That Shouldn't - But Still Do - Go Boom!"

And in conclusion, a sweetly dorky dance video (via), also available in HD version (via). I've watched it a couple times, now, smiling all the way through.

Thank you very much for sharing the Matt video! It made my day.

Oh, thanks for the HD link! You can see so much more, like the crabs on the beach and the dog dancing around him.

I like the detail, yes.

I'm disappointed he doesn't get a crowd scene in Iceland, just the gyser shot. I mean, if he can get some staff from a Tokyo maid cafe to join, surely he could have found some bored Icelandic teens ...

Thank you! I sent the following in an e-mail to various family members about a month ago--don't know why I didn't post it on LJ. Unless I got from someone else's post to begin with, which is quite likely. 8->

This video sets a new standard for my travel goals. Check it out!

Oh I love Video Jug videos. They had a good one once on how to pick up a stranger on the subway (make that Tube!)

That particular one, on folding T-shirts, I've sent to my kids. A not-too-subtle hint.

And the dancing video is a truly marvelous thing ♥

I should track that one down.

Purely for writing research, of course.

Oh, man, did he get to dance in simulated freefall? That is seriously awe-inspiring.

[larryhammer]

I know! He had an amazing year+ of travel, there. And that one was well-placed in the sequence, just when you think you've seen all the variations.

The truth of the matter, Larry, is that you post great links.
