01:11 am - offer the chickens [I'm to .
'Augurs were responsible for interpreting the will of the gods through the observation of the flight of birds in a templum, and through the observation of the sacred chickens [I'm not making this up]. The chickens were specially chosen and when a magistrate wished to inquire about divine will, he sent an augur (a pullarius - a chicken man) to offer the chickens special grain. If they ate it hungrily, the gods approved the magistrate's proposed action. As their appetite decreased, so too did the will of the gods.'
i like to think that the various bob-centric divinations i perform have some spiritual descent from the roman rites.

02:55 am - not art; merely a slender jet.
"Rumanian Sculptor Constantin Brancusi had to pay $4,000 to bring his Bird in Flight into the U. S. ... Works of art are duty free. But Sculptor Brancusi's bird had neither head, feet nor feathers. It was four and a half feet of bronze which swooped up from its base like a slender jet of flame. Customs Inspector Kracke said it was not art; merely "a manufacture of metal . . . held dutiable at 40% ad valorem." The press bantered, jibed. Indignant modernists wrote abstruse, defensive paragraphs. Sculptor Brancusi complained to the Customs Court."

12:22 pm - water the cameraman hit the trigger button.
' "The key to success was using the latest digital slow-motion camera that continuously records into a memory buffer," the production team said. "When the cameraman hits the trigger button he downloads the action that took place a second or so before that moment. Whenever a lizard sprinted past the cameraman over the water the cameraman hit the trigger, desperately trying to keep the lizard in the frame and in focus." '
huh. so people are using cameras that preemptively record. now the technology just needs to get to cellphones.
