If you're tired of the pie fights, tired of the arguing, tired of your day and tired of the world, welcome to the Daily Diversion, your one stop group for all things irrelevant.
Mission Statement
Mission statement? Ha! We don't need no stinkin' mission statement. But, if you insist, our purpose is to provide you with enough shiny objects to give you a break from the world for 10-15 minutes a day.
If you have any suggestions, hate mail, or any diversions of your own, speak now or forever hold your pee. Enough with the chit-chat introduction nonsense, on with the show!

Games
Air Transporter
This physics game can be tough as you get higher up in the levels, but just like porn or mints, you won't be able to quit once you start. The object of the game is to use your helicopter to complete various tasks, such as putting out fires, building buildings, and various other challenging stuff. It's addicting, just to warn you.

The Powder Game
There's really no point to this game, but there are unlimited possibilities to what you can do with it. You get various "powders," such as sand, salt, stone, magma, fire, water, and a wide array of other stuff to play with. You left click to select something, and then click in the big black area to create that substance. Sand burns, gas explodes, water turns the magma to stone. Once you figure out what you're doing, you'll never stop.

There's nothing cuter than little kids during thunderstorms...
Speaking of scary things, the pilot of this Boeing 747 made an awesome landing into Hong Kong's Kai Tak airport. The approach is routine (just like the "river visual approach" at Washington National Airport), but can be tense if you're not used to it.
And for all of the tech geeks of the world, enjoy this walkthrough of one of the first Windows laptops. Bonus points if you had one of these way back when.
Hope this helps you escape reality for a little while, at least. What's diverting you today?
