My name is Benjamin Cavanagh Diggles.


I am the web director + co-founder of db clay. I am 27, married + living in Portland Oregon. I don't have many reasons for keeping this blog. I love to talk about emerging web culture + how retarded the media is but mostly it consists of stuff that makes me smile.

I fear neckties + 2012 + I have mild OCD but I will always post, so please come back if you are interested in a little thing called fun. Feel free to leave a comment + not be an asshole. Chill, none of this means anything.
contact me if you want to.

auto-dog

Posted: March 19, 2008

some dude built a machine that allows a dog to play catch with itself by placing the ball in a groove that then flings it across the room. kinda boring, yet damn that dog is awesome.
if this dog was missing an eye i would have not posted this. that would be straight disgusting.
