That's How It Happened

Borat Competition
I will shortly be spending a long weekend in Slovenija. Though I'm quite sure it will be charming, and that my hosts (the family Nixta) will be gracious and accommodating, I am planning a little performance art satire. Ever since Nick threatened to dress as a bear and attack my bee-hive, I've been in need of a counter prank. Journeying to deepest Eastern Europe my thoughts turned to Borat. Via your submissions I plan to do as many surreptitious Borat-like activities as possible, without Nick ever realising. Since Mr Nixta is already in Slovenia, which clearly has no internet access, or probably even telephony, the competition starts today without fear of discovery. Based on Daniel Radosh's hilarious interview with the Kazakh Embassy Press Officer, and the ever brilliant Borat Online, I have a few starting suggestions:
1. Request wine made from fermented horse urine.
2. Tell everyone (male or female) they "Are a real man!", (and possibly ask to touch their khrum.)
3. Disco Dance to "Everybody Dance Now".
Please submit your craftiest suggestions via the comments. The winner (judging criteria yet to be determined) will receive a bottle of "Bear's Blood". (which I'm told is a foul tasting local liquor, not actual large mammal plasma).

BlogBites give you daily chunks of good writing from various blogs. Like Kinja without the nerdiness. A really great way to find new blogs.

George Bush punches innocent man in head! (40 years ago sadly, in a Yale rugby match). He kinda goes up in my estimation after seeing the photo though.

Huge Scandy mechanical digger made from Lego, with tiny, to scale, Lego eco-protesters and "photo story".

Pajama Blogging so hot right now. (I'm wearing blue scrubs, does that count?).

Nerd crashes giant B-52 model, with video.

Lovely Japanese flash loopiness: help an 8 pixel high Hello Kitty rescue gems while balanced on a precarious see-saw, over a choppy sea, in glorious monochrome.

Tinker Hatfield buzz: Freshness have used his hTM Woven (colorway 261) in their new logo/banner, and have a video interview concerning his Air Trainer Mid; and Business Week Online have been allowed into his Nike Innovation Kitchen (which ordinarily says on the door: "Nobody gets in to see the cooks. Not nobody. Not no how.")

The French for blog is blog, who knew? (Both excellent Frog blogs)

And finally today marks another milestone in the history of That's How, because you lot exceeded my alotted bandwidth again. I'd like to thank all those that made this bandwidth blowout possible by sending visitors my way: Scott Saltwater, script-o-drew, one simple question, Brambled Ramblings, one more robot, Go Vacant, What Adam, Hulegu's Campaign, and assorted delightful strangers.
