"The Daily Nonsense report� showing on http://BruceDowns.Diaryland.com is just what the name implies, just nonsense. I update this nonsense everyday with links to a wide variety of weird, funny, strange, and just plain entertaining sites that the Internet, so frequently, provides us. On occasion I may feature links that doesn�t necessarily meet the previously mention criteria but are my personal thoughts and observations. I do put witty taglines on this nonsense and mail them to your mother on occasion, especially when you have been bad. So have fun, make comments, and come back often.

Burn Things
Use a giant magnifying glass to burn things. It's a Flash thingy called Ant City. This game reminds me of the days when I was a kid burning ants with a bright sun and a magnifying glass, it's good for about five minutes of sadistic entertainment.

FASTBALL REACTION TIME
Fastball Reaction Time imitates a 90-mph fastball thrown by a major league pitcher. While this exhibit doesn't test if you could actually hit a fastball, it does test whether you could react in time to hit one.

Looks pretty darn real to me, fake battlefield photography
Stefan Kirkl presents Amazing action figure art that he's elaborately painted and posed, producing what looks like gripping battlefield photography. Lisa and I keep war-toys based on humans these type of toys away from Mason especially when they can look so real. We will let him have Plastic Army Men. Speaking of plastic army men, here�s a site called Everything Toy Soldiers appropriately titled I would say.

Which Office Moron Are You?
Take the Office Moron Test.

Morons. Offices are full of them; irritating little people with no redeeming features, forming their own social hierarchies within the walls of the workplace. It's understandable, of course; if you were to sit in the same room day after day, staring at spreadsheets and filling out orders, the monotony of your life only rivaled by the monotony of your thoughts and dreams, you too would be yearning for your own besuited Lord of the Flies scenario.
I took the test and it told me that I was a disarmingly young temp. go figure!

Draft Bruce
Draft Bruce, no not me the other Bruce!
"A New York concert promoter has mounted an online campaign to 'draft' Bruce Springsteen to headline a rock 'n roll show to upstage the Republican National Convention on the night it nominates President Bush...." Said promoter Andrew Rasiej, "I've spoken to the manager of REM, to Bon Jovi's people and the rest of the names I've mentioned and they all said, 'if you build it, we will be there.'"

I'm not a big fan, but this has the potential to be big.

Need a place to store your pictures for free?
TinyPic.com - "is a very simple, fast, reliable free image host. It is perfect for linking to auctions, message boards, journals, and other websites. There is no registration or login, all you have to do is submit your picture." This looks very useful. I find the most popular pictures on the site curious though.
