Signs of Satan!

Well known people showing off The Horned Hand or The Mano Cornuto (i.e. the hand signal which represents Satan). Now Dubya and family claim it is the University of Texas Longhorns "hook 'em horns" symbol. And some say it's just the deaf hand signal of the phrase, "I love you." Now beyond the Bushes they have the usual suspects like Dick Cheney, Dan Quayle, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Yasser Arafat, and McDonalds CEOs. But it is hard to believe that all these folks are UT fans or ASL signing. I mean, Silvio Berlusconi, Prince William, Spider Man, and Pat Robertson? After all, one of The Council On Foreign Relations symbols is a naked man on a white stead giving the horned hand signal and Helen Keller was an occultist and Theosophist.

Portable Rotary Phone

Dial someone up on your cellphone

Sparkfun's Port-O-Rotary puts a full mobile phone inside a vintage rotary phone. It has a functional rotary dial, it rings with the original metallic bells, and it even has a dial tone. All you have to do is open the phone, insert your SIM card, and turn it on. It will utilize your phone number and work in North American and Europe. The internal battery is charged by an external jack on the rear of the phone (the charger is built-in). It weighs in at 2 pounds and is a bit pricey at $199.95, but imagine the looks you'll get walking down the street while talking on one of these.
