What you are about to see - and I'm not making this up - is a moth driving a car. That's right. A silk moth - actually, 14 different male silk moths - each, in turn, hooked up to a robotic vehicle at at the University of Tokyo. Every one drove the vehicle to the intended target. If this were a driving test, all the moths would have passed.

This makes me happy. Alot. We've missed you, Allie.
Yesterday morning, CNN Newsroom anchor Ashleigh Banfield and CNN Headline News anchor Nancy Grace were discussing the Cleveland kidnapping case "via satellite," which is a great way to communicate for those who aren't standing in the same parking lot, and of course, they were. The setup was discovered after a viewer noticed same exact cars passing through both sides of the split-screen in the background.

Japanese company Tange & Nakimushi Peanuts have created an online sensation with their oddly amusing pictures of cats dressed as sushi.
Microsoft made it official. They have migrated all of their accounts to the new Outlook.com (and I yawn at the news).

A new workweek is upon us, and the choice is once again before you - to go to work and be productive, or to lay around the house and watch movies. To help you choose, today's fare is the 1983 TV-movie Special Bulletin, a tale of domestic terrorism told as a series of news breaks in network programming. Stars Ed Flanders, Kathryn Walker, David Clennan, and Rosalind Cash.

For no practical purpose at all, I wanted to see if I could make a screwdriver into a car key. What fun it would be to impersonate the look of a stolen car with a screwdriver jammed into the ignition! And maybe I could empty my glove box all over the seat so it looks like I was scrounging for spare change and prescription drugs too!
Read on to make your own.
