‘Are you from the past?’ IT Crowd Fan Shirts

As anyone in IT knows, helpdesk is like being in hell but with ‘special’ people asking you questions all the time. If you don’t know what that’s like then you need to see a British comedy called ‘The IT Crowd‘ (if you looked you could find it online but I don’t know anything about that).

Roy: Yeah, you do know how a button works, don’t you? No, not on clothes. No, there you go, I just heard it come on. No, that’s the music you hear when it comes on. No, that’s the music you hear when… I’m sorry, are you from the past?

Express your inner nerd  with one of these the next time you have a casual Friday and the office.

The Online Paper Airplane Museum

theonlinepaperairplanemusuemlogogif.gifJust in time for the wintry weekend, a site that can keep you amused for days! Just stock up on paper before you get snowed in.

The Mission of the museum is to inspire everyone to greater heights, no matter what they choose. If this much variation and grace can come from a simple piece of paper, imagine what you can do!

The curator says that he is going ot add my ‘build a glider from a fast food container‘ project. Neat!
