According to BoingBoing, this out of control bus in Perm, Russia (tell me if I’m writing that wrong), nearly hits this man who is running across the crosswalk to make a light. Wow, this could have turned out so bad if everybody’s timing was just a bit off.
Should you walk or take the bus?

This handy chart will show you when it might be better to walk than wait for the next bus (assuming that you can either walk a 15 or 20 minute mile).
If you had a bike, you wouldn’t have to worry about either.

Man Sets TTC Bus on Fire from Tim Shore on Vimeo.
This video makes absolutely no sense to me.
But I will say that it does goes well with the taxi cab that caught fire earlier today in Manhattan. Mmmm, yes it does.
Feeding time at the zoo

Cool4Cats sells this neat mechanical card kit that shows a line of school children being devoured by a crocodile. For only $12, it’s a pretty amusing contraption to put on your desk to show people. Check out a video of it below. [via]
Vacation time!
July 25, 2009 @ 7:00 am

For the next week, I’ll be away on vacation in Maine which means no updates here on Doobybrain.com.
I encourage you all to follow @doobybrain on Twitter and to continue sending me items via email (I’ll be on vacation, but I’ll be able to check email consistently). In the meantime, I hope you don’t get sick of seeing this image above for an entire week. See ya when I get back all refreshed!

If the bus system in New York City was like Bogota’s, I’d gladly ride the bus everywhere.
