[Don't send your children out on railroad tracks for coal](http://www.boingboing.net/2007/09/10/do-not-send-your-chi.html). OK, it's from the 1920s. Which just shows the 'warning about the obvious' thing some liability specialists love…

[An architect using Lego for the scale model of his house](http://gizmodo.com/gadgets/lego-towers/architect-makes-scale-model-of-housing-proposal-in-lego-298497.php). Hopefully that kit will be released soon. Bigger than even the [Millenium Falcon kit](http://starwars.lego.com/en-us/Products/exclusive/10179.aspx).
[Some simple advice for better presentations](http://www.43folders.com/2007/08/23/better-presentations/). The average slide presentation I see is pretty bad. There are a lot of features in most of the software packages like…
[Robotech and Voltron movies are coming soon](http://gadgets.boingboing.net/2007/09/08/robotech-voltron-mov.html). There's a 1 per cent chance these would be good. But it's far more likely they will destroy everything good about…
