PTP 3: Origami & Airport Security

Never a dull moment I always say. Plenty of strange noises in this one. Maybe it’s just the wind.

Mark over at Schlabadoo got Freshly Pressed this week! If you don’t know what that means let’s just say it’s super good. I was cracking up all the way through this post about airport security. I keep saying this, but he’s as good as advertised. I see a very readable book coming from him in the future.

Popular WordPresser Todd Pack wrote a neat piece recently called Something my 5-year-old won’t remember: Video stores. He’s dead on and brought back memories of when video stores first appeared. Now they’re going away!

Nice tribute from Larry Hehn about the best teacher he ever had. Who’s yours? Stop over and add to the discussion on Larry’s site.

From Worst Professor Ever we have A Plan So Crazy, It Just Might Work. You might think this is pure satire, but WoPro isn’t kidding when she suggests that many or most teachers could be replaced by actors. If anyone could make this argument, it’s WoPro. Is she wrong?

Finally, something a little different. Origami. Yes, I said origami. I’m not artistic at all, but I found a teacher so good even I was able to make some cool stuff with my boy this week. The origami guru’s name is Rob and he’s a great teacher. Here’s the link to the part of his YouTube channel with a bunch of videos about making cool stuff.

That’s all for now. I’m off to work on spectacular things!

Have you found anything memorable on the web this week? Tell us in the comments!
