A man enters a barber shop for a shave.

While the barber is foaming him up, he mentions the problems he has getting a close shave around the cheeks.

“I have just the thing,” says the barber taking a small wooden ball from a nearby drawer.

“Just place this between your cheek and gum.”

The client places the ball in his mouth and the barber proceeds with the closest shave the man has ever experienced.

After a few strokes the client asks in garbled speech, “And what if I swallow it?”

“No problem,” says the barber.

“Just bring it back tomorrow like everyone else does.”

Tonka the tortoise was found in San Mateo County in California after it had been attacked by a dog that had bitten off one of her legs.  Rescuers were afraid she would never be able to move normally until one of them had the idea to attach wheels from a Tonka truck to her. Now she really gets around!

Local resident John O’Dea, 35, has now adopted Tonka and said she loved nothing better than roaming in the vegetable patch and going for ‘walks’.

Surfer John said: ‘She is doing really well and loves roaming around the vegetable garden on her shiny new wheels.

‘She has a particular fondness for tomatoes.

‘I take her for ‘walks’ regularly around my neighbourhood, I think she likes the speed but I do get a few funny looks.

My day days.

Rain rain and more rain.

Michael Douma and his colleagues from ColoRotate and IDEA is working on a project to display and edit colors in 3D. He thought I might be interested and sent me the link which you will find below. I went to the site and was impressed. It’s called “ColoRotate” and is in beta. It mentions that a plug-in is in the works for Photoshop CS 4, I can’t wait. Check the site out and let me know what you think. Did I mention that it’s free? link

“Since color is inherently three dimensional, it’s always bothered us that all color pickers are flat. That led to the design ColoRotate, a 3D editor that aligns with the way our minds process color. We’ve also put together some background information about the nature of color, perception, and color models — http://learn.colorotate.org/

ColoRotate is a free online service that has some similarities to Adobe Kuler, but is different in that it’s in 3D. Users can browse color palettes, create new palettes, and share palettes with others in the ColoRotate community. This fall, we’ll be launching ColoRotate as a CS4 plugin.”
