    I don't know whether that's impressive or just sad.

    I vote impressive. Just last week I was showing my wife how impressive my concentric box making skillz were on the Etch-a-Sketch. Now I feel inadequate as a man. I need to go punch a baby or something to make me feel better.

    It's like the two FBI agents in that Family Guy episode... "Fine! I'm going to go draw boobs on the Etch-a-Sketch!" "Go ahead, they always come out square!"

    Yeah, that's impressive. I couldn't put the sound on because I am at work. Did he say how long it takes him?

    I don't think so. I turned the sound off too because of the god awful music. It seems to be in one sitting.

    I wonder if this is the same kid (just older) that I saw on the news a while back. If not then I've seen better, and by a little kid.

    Man, that was too awesome.

    I wouldn't say that's sad. People just have natural skills like that. Hand-eye and attention to detail applied to Etch-A-Sketch. Very awesome.

    Ok, I'm in class right now and the prof starts going into explicit detail on torture in the Middle East when I just start laughing.

    I really need to stop surfing while in class.
