This whole Sheep Invaders thing has gotten us thinking about lasers being used to get wool. Or lasers being used to alter clothing? Or lasers being used to get juice out of certain kinds of fruit. In short, why aren’t there more pratical lasers? (And we don’t mean laser pointers. We know ALL about those.) Today’s morning roundup as lasers in it.

Highlights include:

1.) A working phaser? Come on. We need to know if this is real.

2.) Play Sheep Invaders online

3.) Yes. The bees.

Every day Stubby the Rocket jets around the internet looking for links of interest. When Stubby finds these links, they get put in our handy Links of Interest section and sometimes on our Twitter and Facebook!  Here’s today’s selection:

Stubby the Rocket is the mascot of Tor.com.  Stubby Invaders would a great game. But if you had to laser-blast Stubby, the game wouldn’t be fun because Stubby would win.
