  10. Dude even has a MOSQUITO mode - he tracked down a mosquito that bit his girlfriend, beat up his little mosquito gang, and brought the little bloodsucker back to apologize to the girl. Tell me that's not original scripting! Trapped on the surface of a sphere. XKCD
  11. This is a frickin AWESOME movie. The full 3 hours can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AqW0YXrUtFI Trapped on the surface of a sphere. XKCD
  12. Man, I thought Indian cars were cheap, but now I want one. One crashed into the other so hard it flipped over the top of it WITHOUT ANY APPARENT DAMAGE TO EITHER CAR! Those things must be built out of unobtanium, or something. Trapped on the surface of a sphere. XKCD
  13. I had a Treo smartphone. It was innovative for it's time. Did some cool things. I've had two iPhones. They are nice. Reliable, fast, elegant. I had three Blackberries. They are great. Tough as nails, best physical keyboard in the business. Very secure OS. I've had two Motorola Droids. They rock. Right at this millisecond in history, Android is the best smartphone OS out there, IMO. I have two Samsung galaxy tabs, 7 and 7.0+. They are so sturdy and easy to use that my 4-year old loves to play with them, and my 6-year old knows how to talk to them and get answers. Seriously, what's not to love about these things? It's like saying Ms. Argentina is not as pretty as Ms. Russia. They're all good! And they all have weird quirks and huge egos. That wouldn't stop me from using them for two years, then upgrading.

    Juicing

    I also have a BlendTec which I use on a daily basis. Yes, fiber is taken out of the juice, and yes the carbs will spike your insulin levels for a few hours - I don't recommend eating fat for a few hours after juice. But juicing, in my opinion, isn't about losing weight, it's about gaining a high concentration of nutrients from a good food source. If the goal is to lose weight, there are more effective ways to do that. Trapped on the surface of a sphere. XKCD

    Juicing

    I have a Green Star, and they cost big bucks, but I was planning on using it hundreds of times and I have. Still running. The better the juicer, the less waste. That is significant when you are buying organic veggies for juicing, because they are more expensive than conventional. And you should buy organic, because the average American consumes 2 pounds of pesticide every year. If you're going to juice, you will easily get twice what the average American gets, probably more. One tip - use apples to sweeten the bitter taste of the greens. Fuji and Gala are the best because they are the sweetest. Start with an inexpensive one, and buy more expensive juicers if you keep doing it over a period of years. Most people give up, and it's not a great investment if you do. Have fun!

  21. Linear aerospike engines were attempted on the X-33 project, to be named VentureStar, back in the late 90s as a shuttle replacement. The US Air Force evaluated the prototype and considered them an abject failure. It's one of many reasons we don't have a replacement for the shuttle today. Trapped on the surface of a sphere. XKCD

  23. Last month, I got a snail-mail letter saying I had won $260K in a "shopper's lottery". It had a check for $1,700, and said you could deposit it, then send $1,500 in taxes to the UK, and then they would send the remainder to you. The check had watermarks, and was issued by an actual check dispensing agency. I couldn't even count up all the laws they were violating. Trapped on the surface of a sphere. XKCD

  25. I had to look him up, too. I agree with the above statement. But, dammit, Dio's Rainbow in the Dark is playing in the background, and it really does make this sound like crap by comparison. Trapped on the surface of a sphere. XKCD
