The next evolutionary step for mankind

When I was in College my roommates and I answered an ad in the paper for a bar that was for sale. This beast had come from an old Elk's Club, it weighed about 600 pounds and was covered in black pleather. The built-in keg fridge worked but there were some pieces vital pieces missing. However, I had worked for a beer distributor the previous summer and we used those connections (and some clever shopping) to replace the missing standard, tap head, regulator and CO2 tank. Once we had everything working there was beer on tap ALWAYS for at least 2 years. The Bar was pivotal in my life due to its huge contribution to my failing out of school. Why do I say that like it was a good thing? I ended up with a good career and I'm making good money so how much can I bitch, plus those two years were some of the best of my life. To this day if you ask any of the guys involved with "The Bar" they'll get a far away glassy look in their eyes...and maybe a tear.

So why do I mention it? Because this bar makes our old bar look like something from the fucking stone age. I mean holy shit! This is the kind of bar that has the magical powers to remove clothing and cause women to dance upon it. Bravo sirs! BRAVO!!


If we buy a bar....we could live together forever!!!!

Yet more criminal genius

As video surveillance gets more and more common place we're only going to see more innovations like this technical achievement. The real deal about this is that it uses invisible light sources, infrared, to dazzle the camera's CCD. So you can blind the camera without your fellow unwittingly surveilled bystanders be none the wiser.

Lay off the NOS

Hey buddy, I think she's running a bit rich.




He's obviously never seen The Fast And The Furious.

The DMZ

We have now entered the HD format war DMZ. Even though HD-DVD has thrown in the towel this article from Gizmodo makes several points as to why now is bad time to buy Blu-ray.

Party Time

Maurice always felt awkward at Bobo's parties.


Welcome to the galaxy

Apparently Microsoft has been working on a very ambitious new program called the Worldwide Telescope. Check out this video of the software in action...it looks amazing.

Irony rocks

This guy learned an important lesson, irony is good friends with Karma.

Seriously, how obstinate do you have to be to take the time and effort to make a fake seat belt?

Very cool
