artist for the IDW comics, most famously More Than Meets the Eye, and he created the amazing designs in the Transformers vs the Terminator comics, and his favorite issue to draw for was the Rom vs. Transformers: Shining Armor series. he's one of my favorite comic artists and his art is simply stunning. it's definitely influenced my Transformers fan art. happy birthday, and may he live many more years
Rodan got his solo film in 1955, and was a major player in Showa, but afterwards, he got 1 appearance in Heisei and wasn't even the main focus of that movie, and then was in Final Wars, and then was in KotM. even Michael Dougherty admitted he was always more of a side kick. meanwhile Mothra got her solo movie, a movie vs Godzilla in Showa, and was a major player afterwards, then appeared as the main focus again in a Heisei film, not to mention the Rebirth of Mothra trilogy, and then appeared in 3 Millennium movies. and then of course she was in KotM. meanwhile Anguirus was in only 4 Showa movies (Raids Again, Destroy All Monsters, vs Gigan and vs Mechagodzilla), and wouldn't appear again until Final Wars. and then all he got was his blink and you'll miss it skeleton in KotM. he was then in Singular Point after being absent for 17 years. and then of course there's Varan who hasn't appeared since a blink and you'll miss it cameo in Destroy all Monsters.
a pigeon who beat Telkom in internet speed. basically, in 2009, a guy working at an office of the financial services company The Unlimited in Howick said to his boss "my internet is so slow a pigeon could outspeed it". so his boss decided to test it out. they got a pigeon named Winston from Durban and put a little vest on him with a USB stick with 4 GBs of data on it, and then Winston started to fly back to his home in Gillits at 10 am. a taxi driver picked him up and delivered him to the head office of The Unlimited in Hillcrest and then uploaded the data at 11:45. 26 minutes before Winston started flying, they started to send the data remotely. by the time the data was uploaded from Winston, the remote transfer was just under 4% complete
