How To Make a Mini Moleskine
I just posted my first-ever Instructable, on how to turn a standard pocket Moleskine notebook into two super-pocket-sized Mini Moleskines. It was a fun, easy project and it was fun writing it up. If you have an Instructables account please leave your comments over there.

Top 15 Strangest Coincidences
Top 15 Strangest Coincidences “In 1899 a bolt of lightning killed a man as he stood in his backyard in Taranto, Italy. Thirty years later his son was killed in the same way and in the same place. On October 8, 1949, Rolla Primarda, the grandson of the first victim and the son of the second, became the third.” I suspect many of these are apocryphal, but a fun read anyhow.

Charlie Brown Christmas vs. “Hey Ya”
‘Tis the season for Charlie Brown mash-ups. After you’re done watching, head over to Ken Jennings’ blog to reacquaint yourself with the Peanuts characters and read his delightful analysis of their respective dance styles. Personally, I’ve always rather liked 5’s “funeral march of the marionette.” (via TV Squad)
