…Ken Block and Travis Pastrana can fly?

Racer X Magazine

Ken Block and Travis Pastrana look like they’re trying out for the next superman movie on this cover shoot for Racer X magazine.

The stunt involved Travis backflipping his MotoX bike over Block’s Subaru, and then fire was added in just for fun (and to keep things interesting).

When asked about the stunt, Block replied “Glad Travis didn’t hit his head on the top of my car, and at least I didn’t break my back this time.”

Nice.

…The Coke Zero Game looks fantastic?

The Coke Zero Game

As part of the UEFA’s Euro 2008 Football Championships, North Kingdom put together a game for Coke called The Coke Zero Game that it says is one of its biggest projects ever.

Unfortunately, it’s currently only available in German, but with hot babes, flying cars, and plenty of fire and mayhem in the mix, it’s sure to be a blast when it launches stateside.

Until then, check out the North Kingdom site for a countdown timer, plus plenty of previews to tease you along for the ride.

Now that the MacBook Air is out, what about the rest of the elements?

It’s like Captain Planet Computing!

…It’s Website Wednesday: Map of Southern California fires?

Southern California Fires

As fires continue to devastate Southern California, many people have turned to the Internet for up to the minute information about what’s going on.

In response, the Los Angeles Times has created a map with information about what has burned and what has been contained; and it’s amazing to see just how wide spread these fires are.

I wish the best for everyone involved.

…Today is National Slip ‘N Slide Day?

Slip ‘N Slide

I would like to propose that on this, the 25th of August, we, as a people, put into motion the changes that need to be made to declare this, the last Saturday of every August, “National Slip ‘N Slide Day”.

Why?

Because what’s more fun than finding a tarp, wetting it down, and sliding till your skin rubs off?

If you’d like to join the fight to bring this summertime fun back into common use, then grab some friends, loose your sense of good judgement, and get sliding.

Need a bit of inspiration? Here you go:

…Flashlights can start fires?

There are some people who just don’t know the meaning of enough is enough. Case in point is this Maglite with an Osram Sylvania bulb overclocked to 80 times its standard luminosity and powered by 12 1200mV NiMH batteries. How bright is it? Just watch:
