Rick Astley in a box (link roundup)



Nice gallery of photos of one of the Rickroll boxes W+K sent video game bloggers to promote Dante's Inferno.

And a few more links:

1. Relatedly, Dante's Inferno Christmas ornament. (Clearly, my goal for 2010 should be to become an "influential video game blogger.")

2. David "The Edge" Evans wants to protect nature (by building a big compound for himself near Malibu). Via.

3. Plants have some pretty impressive defenses, including the ability to swiftly produce volatile chemicals to attract "large predatory insects like dragon flies, which delight in caterpillar meat." Via.

*Previously: Demon box.

*Buy Hallmark Christmas ornaments at eBay.

Cactus Spaceman (link roundup)



"Domsai" cactus spacemen by Matteo Cibic on sale here. Via.

And a few more links:

1. South Park versions of the characters from George Martin's Song of Ice and Fire.

2. Giant Olivia costume (last photo). Via.

3. The Cat in the Hat's hat cake, Very Hungry Caterpillar made out of cupcakes, and more book-inspired cakes.

4. Cracked shows again that it creates the best lists on the net: 6 Real Islands Way More Terrifying Than The One On Lost. (My favorite reader should not click through.)

*Previously: Cactus theft is a major problem in California.

*Buy Dr. Seuss toys at eBay.
