It’d be funnier if the site was slightly crooked
Ikea’s launched Elite Designers, a guerrilla site, goofing on itself. Doesn’t get around to mentioning that the furniture’s not very comfortable, or that there’s typically a part missing from assembly, but hey.

Alien Loves Predator: In New York, no one can hear you scream.

Science Fiction Double Feature
There are times I feel like I’m living in a science fiction world. This morning, I turned on ESPN during breakfast. The Houston Rockets and Sacramento Kings were playing an NBA preseason game in Shanghai. The crowd, of course, went crazy when Yao Ming was introduced. But earlier, when the team rosters were introduced, I was amazed to hear sudden surges of applause when the announcer called out the names of Peja Stojakovic and Dikembe Mutombo.
I thought, “I’m watching an NBA game, from Shanghai, on a satellite dish, TiVo’d [I paused live action while I was making breakfast], and I just saw a Chinese crowd go nuts when a Serbian and a Nigerian were introduced.”
