“Before you can fight crime you must first make a costume.”
That’s one obsessed Iron Man fan. Impressive suit though.
If you think about what’s involved in making the suit from scratch – with motorised hinges and functional lights – it’s quite a feat.
That photo of the Flatiron Building is simply wonderful. Note that the is only one automobile in there (lower right). In the upper left, there appears a boy shoveling horse manure from the street…
From the Live Science article on male/female arousal, to be placed in “The Wonders of Science” file:
“Men who reported feeling turned on tended to also sport an erection . . .”
Frankly, I would’ve thought the probability of a correlation between those two events would be 100%.
