Maybe I should join the Epicurean Club and learn some creative uses for it...

Good Luck Dusting This

As we drove up 39 switchbacks on the way to Valle Nevado in the Chilean Andes, I started to wonder what the trip looked like in 3D - since a 2D map could never do all those turns justice (especially with a hangover).

As I was flipping through this month's Wired, I learned you can order a custom-sculpted wood topo maps.

If these things weren't $275, I would totally ask Santa to make one for me.

The (Austrian) company's website allows you to pick any place in the world using Google Maps, and then shows a (choppy) rendering of what the sculpture would look like. For example, check out the road to Valle Nevado.

Here Goes Football

The fact that Boston is leading this poll while the Giants and LSU are just starting to defend their championships isn't surprising, but I think the fact that sports fans from New York don't even think the Giants can repeat is (53% of New Yorkers voted for Boston, 19% for the Giants).
