Today's grab-bag of weird webby wibble
Oruchuban
Ebichu is a bizarre Japanese anime (cartoon) TV series about a hamster
(called Ebichu) -- "Ebichu the Housekeeping Hamster". Ebichu lives with
and keeps house for OL, a Japanese Office Lady who is somewhat desperate
to get married, and her boyfriend Useless, who is. Which sounds innocent
enough, except that there's a remarkable level of slapstick
sex and violence (mostly against small furry animals) that can
give rise to reviews like this.
As the official
website says, "Recommended for Ages 20 and Over
Best Suited for Ages 25 and Over...Single...and Female".
When your only tool is a hammer, every problem looks like a
nail: and when your only tool is a print spooler ... you get
this
account of how to turn a perfectly innocent UNIX print
subsystem into a streaming MP3 jukebox by printing music files
to your sound card ...

Serpentine is an Australian goth fashion emporium who sell corsets and
bustles and the sort of clothes 1880's Victorian debutantes might
have gone for
if
they'd known about PVC.
If you're having difficulty with figures -- and not the kind a
corset would help with -- you might want to look at the
Museum of HP Calculators.
HP no longer make these gems, but they released the ROM images
from their later machines (the HP-48 and HP-49 series) and you
can get a beautiful emulator for a $250 HP-49G called
Power48 that
you can then run on your $500
Palm
Tungsten C.
You can also go wardriving with WiFinder,
an AirSnort type WiFi detector (the final release of which
should be GPS compatible).
And if you're sad enough to salivate over the electronic
gizmos but not the sex-crazed hamster and retro rubbermaid
outfits, you probably need to read this blog or visit
Bianca's Smut
Shack, possibly the oldest smutty site on the web (as I
recall from the shock it caused when it first showed up in
1994).

More weirdness from Japan
If you feel the need to dress a
cat ...
... you need to visit this
website for all your feline costumes. As the owners say:
Anne of Green Gables appeared in popular costume play series!
The hair of the red hair of costume is coquettish and cute.
The cat which became a hood figure is likely to have a broom
at any moment, and is likely to begin cleaning. As for the
blouse of the country tone made with the same cloth as a hood,
the yellow flower arrangement of the center of a collar is
impressive, and looks very prettily! Since it can equip with a
hood and a blouse on a piece of Velcro, attachment and
detachment are easy!
(Frigg's comment, from under the bed: "Rrrrrrrr ...")
