beautindarkness: Keyboard waffles anyone? What’s better than eating a keyboard-shaped waffle for breakfast? Not much. Chris Dimino created this waffle iron from an old typewriter keyboard. The waffles come out of the iron in the shape of a keyboard, which is perfect for any breakfast-loving nerd. http://www.theurbangrocer.com/2012/10/12/typewriter-keyboard-shaped-waffle-iron/

I was just recently shown this amazing music!

This music was made using vintage synthesizers which creates a special retro scifi style. Inspired by Jean Michel Jarre - especially his music of the 70’s! These great tunes were produced by SYNESTEM,

I always enjoy cool music like this, and I hope you get a chance to listen to this, and enjoy it as well!!
