Nice. I wish the video quality was a little better. My 8 year old loves those things.

Anyone seen "unchained reaction" on discovery? It's pretty much a rube Goldberg machine competition. It's a bit slow but they've made some neat things.

I love stuff like that. I even get excited watching those big domino things, where they knock over the first one and they go in a chain reaction.

"Good" is the worst enemy of "Great".

I was a judge to a Rube Goldberg contest by high school science clubs while I was in college. Very fun.

Agreed. I remember watching that one a year or two ago. IIRC it is the actual band in the clip. They hired a crew to build one for their video.

I still have to give the nod to Honda for their commercial:

Nicely done, and the backstory just adds to it.
