wow! i’ve had the idea of an error message version of signspotting for years – and as late as this past summer, i started working on building it. but before i started, i checked that the domain was available, and that no one had already given the concept life. a 404 on “errorspotting.com” and no google hits for “errorspotting” encouraged me to get started. i never finished, of course…

but now you have! =) saves work for me (and since I probably never would have finished anyway, i’m really glad you did!) i have a couple of contributions to the list of error messages. where should I send them?

Comment on Protecting American Citizens from Snow Globe Threats by Julie

I was in Atlanta for a church conference this past week and I bought my mother a snow globe at the Georgia Aquarium. I didn’t know that you couldn’t take a snow globe in the carry-on until I went through security and they told me that I couldn’t take it through. Fortunately, security told me that I could go to post office in the Atlanta airport and mail it which I did.

I think it’s important to keep in mind that these sorts of “possibly helpful” security policies are *not okay*. Just my two cents, but I’m stickin’ to them until I see a reason to believe differently. :-)

Oh, and my watermelon was just confiscated. This is the pits. ;-)

Comment on How to Open a Coconut by shyam

I followed through to this blog via a link on Bea’s blog, and couldn’t help responding to this coconut entry. Using a happer is a pretty bad idea (and I know because I grew up cracking coconuts :-) Best thing is to use the blunt edge of a cleaver (a type of knife) and hit the coconut along and around the belly. Several steady and strong blow like this will start to crack it and then you can use the same knife to open that up. With a bit of practice, you can have the coconut cracked in two perfect halves. Makes it easy to use a coconut grater like the one at the link below as well …
