Police in Denmark hug cyclists, give them helmets [Youtube, via BoingBoing]

My favourite food blog, Cheap Healthy Good, has an awesome Bea Arthur tribute up right now, with accompanying vid clips.

The Diff'rent Strokes opening number, revisited. [YouTube]

WWI, re-enacted by dogs. I love this concept. Can we do Twilight, re-enacted by dogs, next?

Do I have pig flu?

Is this why humans got pig flu? (probably not)

Will these soaps shaped like baby hands keep me from getting pig flu? (possibly yes)

If you have any other swine flu questions, Maggie Koerth-Baker @ BoingBoing has an FAQ and also has some fun swine-flu facts.

And if you're tired of all this swine flu jazz, why not give yourself an LED smile?

I'm more likely to give panhandlers money if their signs are charming or funny. Apparently this is true all over.

Panda falls down!

The White House has an official Flickr feed!

There is also a Flickr feed for the crazy stuff Michael Jackson was going to auction off. Dude. I want the triptych where he's a knight.

And here is another one for a guy who rides pennyfarthing bikes with his kids.

Man sends silly complaint letters to companies, receives silly responses [Via Consumerist]

This is what the new Toronto streetcars are gonna look like! I like 'em.

Aaaand, I like this poster, too.

Make your own Moleskine notebooks!

Got a fugly office chair? You can fix it! No, really!

Mmm, bacon pops.

Mmm, cream puffs in the shape of anime characters.

Do you have dogs? Are you tired of puttin' their poop in the garbage? With a little effort, you could be composting it instead! (Yes, I'm going "eeeewww" too.)

Links: Stuff I Want
I basically want all these Penguin SF/F classics (link to a picture of a whole bunch of awesome covers).

Jetpacks! Aren't we all supposed to have those by now? Isn't this the future?

In San Fran, some awesome art guerillas installed swings on the metro. Love!

These portable solar-powered speakers are kind of amazing.

And these Ms. Pacman cupcakes look delicious! I love it when gaming habits can feed my face.

I also love it when people commission ridiculous cakes based on their favourite teen vampire romance novel.

Links: Things To Do
If you live in NYC, and are laid off, over the next few days, there's a camp for you!

You really want to go read through Alien Loves Predator, an awesome webcomic with alien & predator action figures, where they are roommates and do stuff together.
