I’m not a professional photographer, hell I’m not even an amateur photographer, but I thought I would post up some picture comparisons of my Storm 1 cell phone and the new Droid Incredible.

First I took shots with the Storm, and then in the same place with the Incredible, and then had the after thought of taking an additional Incredible shot with the setting at 5 megapixels to more closely match the Storm’s resolution. The full size pics are pretty huge if you click through.

Not to say it wouldn’t be the contemporary classic that it is today, but ‘The Matrix’ would’ve taken us down a whole different rabbit hole had Will Smith not passed on the role of Neo, opening the door for Keanu Reeves to don the dark trench coat. Can anyone really imagine The Fresh Prince uttering lines like “Whoa, déjà vu” with the same sense of stunned bewilderment?

How about if Ralph Macchio went time-traveling as Marty McFly, or Tom Cruise danced his heart out as Ren McCormack?

Rarely does a project in Hollywood start and finish with the same lead actors attached. Just see this summer’s thriller ‘Salt,’ where the role of Angelina Jolie’s wrongly accused spy Evelyn Salt was originally to be played by Cruise (as EDWIN Salt, natch).

We thought it’d be amusing to give these 15 casting fun facts — actors (reportedly or rumoredly) originally attached or offered the roles you see below — some visual representation.

Pretty soon we will be able to use Monopoly Money and no one will know.

New York Daily News story

The new currency introduced Wednesday features a variety of new security measures, including a blue “3-D Security Ribbon” that features tiny Liberty Bells.

The bells change to the number 100 when the bill is tilted, one of several changes that Treasury officials hope will frustrate counterfeiters. The 3-D strip is actually woven into the bill, rather than printed on the paper.

We’re all for creative nail polish names, but this one takes the cake. BleachBlack, the design duo who brought you Dickweed for December, is back with a new color — a milky, pearlescent white. The name: Jizz.

We’re not joking and to be honest, we’re slightly uncomfortable — but kudos to BleachBlack for really pushing the lacquer-naming envelope. Or something.

It’s not for sale yet, but that’s Fashion Toast’s Rumi Neely giving it a test run.

I’m looking forward to this one.

A really good example of what some talented individuals can do with some good ideas.
