It's Halloween! So here are some pictures of grisly pumpkins past. I'm a big fan of this guy because worked on those great LucasArts games: Monkey Island and Day of the Tentacle.(Link from eric)

Have you heard of web.archive.org? They've got copies of "over 10 billion web pages archived from 1996 to the present". They've been getting a pretty overwhelming response, so it doesn't always work, and they don't have a copy of everything, but it's pretty fun nonetheless. I found copies of my very first web page, which I'd put up in 1996 when I was at Indiana University. I was very into backgrounds then.

How cool! In Canada, you can make your own postage stamps. Send in a photograph, and they'll create a sheet of 25 legitimate stamps. Imagine if they start doing this in the U.S...every letter you get will have a picture of someone's kid or pet on it.
