I found this on this dude, guybrarian's flickr profile.
It totals all your flickr view and such. I think it is very important for a flickr whore to have. I am a flickr whore, so I have it.
Here is a guybrarian t-shirt. I don't think it's related to the guybrarian on flickr, but could be related to the guybrarian in the seattle public library.

Steampunk Web Game sort of thing - pmog
Submitted by gamp on Sat, 05/03/2008 - 20:26. Fun
The Passiveley Multiplayer Online Game seems to have a steampunk theme.
I've been playing it a bit today, and haven't quite figured out what the game of it is.
I did find this nice site with scary pictures using it though. It's called childhood fears.

This site has an extensive tour of a Colorado Titan I that apparently not very many people have gotten into. Site 724-C

I believe this is the location of the silo.

On an unrelated note, here is the "badlands guardian", a natural erosion formation that looks like a Native American with a headdress.
Sensual Botanica
Submitted by autowitch on Fri, 05/02/2008 - 00:13.
Sensual Botanica at Flash Gallery in Block 7 of Belmar in Denver (SE of Wadsworth and Alameda). The opening is this Friday (tomorrow!) at 6:00PM.
There's some good stuff in this show - and a picture of mine. I should be at the opening for a bit - I have a plane to catch, so it's hard to say for how long.
Be there.

It includes instructions for making your own viewable-from-space Waldo.
