    My old college paper ran a story about this 2 or 3 months ago. I remember thinking then about how I wanted to punch this guy. Not because I'm mad he thought of the idea, but because people are so stupid I knew it would work.

    Now that his plan has come to fruition, I still want to punch him.

    I have a Ben Wallace Pistons throwback jersey. Does anybody want to trade me something for it?

    Whatever book that guy writes while living in that house, I will read.

    I dig this lede:

    "Taking a paper clip and turning it into a house sounds like a cheesy magic trick or a phony instance of resourcefulness on the 1980s TV show "MacGyver." "

    That's a great story, though not without a hint of traditional Canadian weirdness.
