<p>Two Chicago Based artists, Tom Burtonwood and Holly Holmes, created this 3/4 size M1A2 Abrams tank out of cardboard and junk mail. I wonder if it shoots out AOL CDs.</p>

<p><font face="Arial">The Zaky is an ergonomic infant pillow designed by a mom to mimic the size, weight, touch, and feel of her hand and forearm to help her baby with comfort, support, protection, and development. The Zaky can help calm your baby and help your baby sleep better through the night.</font></p>
<p><font face="Arial">The Zaky is also great when you have to leave your baby with someone else &#8212; at your babyâ€™s daycare facility, when he stays with a babysitter, or goes to visit his grandparents. The Zaky will provide a constant and familiar support giving your baby a sense of security. The Zaky also assists the caregivers on positioning your baby and your baby will feel and smell mom.</font></p>

<p><img height="375" alt="kite" src="http://gargles.net/wp-content/uploads/2006/07/kite.jpg" width="417" /></p>
<p><em>Quad-line control, asymmetrical framing, invisible stainless fittings, and opposed-bow tensioning for the sail make this incredible kite look digitally pasted right into the sky. But it isn&#8217;t. Carefully designed by Tim Elverston, this high-end addition to the WindFire collection marks the beginning of the WindFire OS Series. Stay tuned and don&#8217;t worry, we&#8217;ve got all the logical extensions of this series in the works!</em> </p>

<p align="left">The Disney Website has detailed instructions on how to create the model&nbsp;pirate ship shown above. This ship appears in the Pirates of the Caribbean ride in Disney World. The instructions span 16 pages and you have to print out all the model parts and use exacto knives and what not! Still, if someone manages to create one please let me know <img src='http://gargles.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt=':D' class='wp-smiley' /> (Please let me know of any failed attempts as well <img src='http://gargles.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> ) </p>

<p><img height="256" alt="hercules" src="http://gargles.net/wp-content/uploads/2006/07/hercules.jpg" width="378" /></p>
<p>The Origami art pictured above are just two of the thousands of Robert Lang&#8217;s creations. Robert Lang has been studying Origami since over 30 years and is now considered a master of this art form (well duh). The most amazing thing about his website is that he gives patterns for lots of his Origami creations. This means that if you&#8217;re skilled enough and you know how to read the diagrams then you too can create origami as awesome as the ones shown above. Good luck though because most of the patterns look extremely<br />
complex.</p>
