I stumbled upon...

There's not enough of wireframe, and the site was only part-finished, but the stuff to play with is top-class timewasting material.

Ooglegay ocksray.

Nothing like these wonderful animals ever evolved. But it remains one of the mysteries of the human mind how we imagine these things -- it's easy to believe we construct them from the things we do know, but how? What I love most about Borges is that he inspires thought. His work wastes nothing, his writing is beautifully spare (as is often the case with Latin Americans, their toughness with words matching the toughness of Borges' knife fighters -- if you know nothing about Borges' knife fighters, you must seek out Fictions immediately, you will not regret it), and the thought sits in packed coils.

Can you spot a faker? If you score less than I did (10), please let me know. I have a bridge you might be interested in purchasing. Lots of other tests that will tell you things you already know, but with a twist -- the Necker cube one was interesting and I have to say I was pleased to find out my brain is a dude.
