how's your brains...?

okay...

craig and i are workin' hard, getting DANGER DOWN UNDER! ready for you and yours! we thank everyone who got onboard and "Liked" us over on our facebook page--and especially those who reached out to their friends to add to our numbers! we really appreciate that, gang!

while we're hammering away, i thought i'd both share and plug some more cool stuff that i found over at 

www.ebaumsworld.com

it's really a great site with lots of (time-wasting) videos and games and galleries to meander through--you oughta go check it out.

one of the ones that i especially dug was the "infographics" gallery, featuring funny and factual diagrams about the coolest stuff.

here are a couple.

why, you could spend an entire afternoon just reading through these last two alone.

(i know i did...)

fun stuff! 

thanks, ebaum's world!
