Baltimore Kinetic Sculpture Race Photos
YetAnotherName writes "Tom Jones again has coverage and plenty of eye candy of the Baltimore Kinetic Sculpture Race, where engineering prowess converges with a sense of humor. Check out what bizarre contraptions for 2005 won awards for Best Engineering, Best Art, Best Bribes, etc., and if anyone actually finished the race."
The whole thing was hilarious. Specially the "It cain't" titanic parody, and my favorite, La Kafkaracha. For those not spanish-savvy, 'la cucaracha' means "the cockroach" in spanish. It's also a famous traditional song in Mexico. (Ironically, the song is about a cockroach not being able to walk because it's missing a leg).
La kafkaracha's face was very funny, too!
There is a picture of what appears to be a papier mache turtle or tortoise about halfway down the page. This construes a clear violation of company policy, as we believe that all creatures were created by god, and any effigy of a creature (ie. created by man & science) is an abomination against christ.
This site is only not safe for work if you happen to work for some kind of totalitarian mothers against everything company.
