Mark another moment in New Jersey history, according to newjerseynewsroom.com we beat our old pot bust record.
“Along with a vast array of indoor cultivation equipment, 3,370 growing plants, 115 pounds of harvested marijuana and $65,000 cash was seized.”
Apparently, they were having some kind of soul shake-down party, because these dudes were busted because “Officer Thomas Lucasiewicz of the Monroe Township Police Department smelled the odor of burnt marijuana coming from the chimney of 558 Spotswood-Englishtown Road” I don’t mean to curse frivolously, but, are you fucking kidding me? What the hell were these people thinking? And apparently, the ringleader was a Canadian! Those effing Canadians.

In other New Jersey drug news, the largest herion bust in Cumberland County NC uncovered not only $300,000 street valued smack, but also “moonshine, a handgun and video poker machines”. According to the report, “The drugs are thought to have originated in New Jersey”. Slowtimer never condones drug abuse, but could you imagine getting the Canadian together with these three from Cumberland County? That would be quite a scene, burning weed in the fireplace, gambling with 1.3 million dollars on video poker while drinking moon shine? I can’t. Honestly I think I would have to pass, but just picture it for a sec, man, what a party.

While browsing through the interwebs lately, I came across two interesting websites. Both of them use the same medium, photography, but the results couldn’t be more different.

First off, Found Functions from Nikki Grazziano. This is one of the most interesting things I have seen in a while. The basic premise is taking photographs of everyday objects, i.e. a landscape, and finding mathematical functions that define the shape of the objects pictured. It is a great combination of the beauty of nature, and the beauty of mathematics.

As an aside, I also stumbled across this website. I don’t know what good can come out of knowing that 1035 is deficient, but I am convinced some day this site will save my life.

OK, so the second site I wanted to share is called stolen moments. This one is all about the wanna-be voyeur in all of us. Yasmine Chatila essentially spies on people, photographs/records them through their windows, and then combines the images with photographs of other windows in NYC. It is definitely interesting, but I also started closing my blinds a lot more after the first time I saw it.

Other than that, it’s been a while, so I figured I would share some random things:

Through March 8, 2010 Dunkin Donuts wants you to create a new donut. Even if I don’t win, it’s a fun site.

Finally, move over beach volleyball, curling is the now the sexiest Olympic Sport. (Sexist joke about women sweeping omitted, please feel free to add in the comments section).

Until next time…
