Joke - My Father, The Whorehouse Piano Player 2008-03-13 19:43:17 A grade school teacher was asking students what their parents did for a living. "Tim, you're first," she said. "What does your mother do all day?" Tim stood up and proudly said, "She's a doctor." "That's wonderful. How about you, Amie?" Amie shyly stood up, scuffed her feet and said, "My father is a mailman." "Thank you, Amie," said the teacher. "What about your father, Billy?"Billy proudly stood up and announced, "My daddy plays piano in a whorehouse."

The teacher explained what his son had said and demanded an explanation. Billy''s father said, "I'm actually an attorney, but how can I expla Read more:Father

I think that we all know it is cheaper and more practical to assemble and build our own computer, ra 2008-03-13 19:13:02 I think
that we all know it is cheaper and more practical to assemble and build our own computer, rather than getting a more expensive pre-packaged computer that may or may not have what we need. In fact, I don’t believe companies like Dell want you to know that this is most certainly the better route of PC purchase. However, most consumers don’t know a dang thing about building their own PC, and it might get costly as he or she pays to get someone else to do it. Read more...
XLink combines your landline and cell phones via Bluetooth 2008-03-16 21:07:01 I’m fortunate enough not to work in a large office. Generally speaking, large offices usually mean boring cubicles and annoying phone systems. The only phone lines that I worry about are my cell phone and my fax line. However, if you have an office phone, here’s a device that might make things a little easier for you. Read more... Read more:Bluetooth
Coolest Trashcan ever 2008-03-16 20:59:07 And around $100, it may be the most expensive too! But come on, it’s R2D2, man! The only thing that would make this cooler is if it doubled as a trash compactor with swiss army knife attachments. From Urban Outfitters: “Remember when Luke and Leia and the gang were stuck in that trash-compactor aboard the Death Star? And the walls were closing in and there was some kind of gross muck monster down there and everything? Well, remember how R2D2 hacked into the computer system and stopped the contractor from crushing everyone, saving the day like a little robot hero? Pretty awesome, right? But you know what the moral of that story was? R2D2 knows how to handle some trash!” Read more...
MoGo Mouse is a tiny and cheap alternative to using your trackpad 2008-03-16 20:56:13 When traveling on the road, the last thing you want to do is toss a bunch of gadgets and accessories into your laptop bag. The more you have in there, the more bothersome it is to sort through it all and get out what you need. One gadget that you almost always want to have is a mouse, but unfortunately those can take up a bit of room, unless of course you store it inside your laptop. Read more... Read more:Mouse

Kiddo Kidkeeper System 2008-03-18 19:14:45 Kidnappings are pretty common these days, so parents tend to over-worry when it comes to their kids’ whereabouts, which indirectly translates to a more strained relationship as the children themselves feel under pressure and “cornered”, whenever the adults start repeating all the same questions over and over again. Smart Target aims to relieve the pressure cooker environment on both parties with its wireless proximity alarm system that helps boost child safety, assisting parents in locating wayward younglings quickly, while keeping them within a pre-set “virtual fence”. This works great only with tiny tots and small ones, as those who are older will probably feel ashamed of being “caged” by such a system, so do exercise some care and discretion w Read more:System
Dextre is one killer robot 2008-03-18 19:13:17 I’m surprised that no one on this site has covered this yet. After all, NASA’s repair robot Dextre has got to be one of the coolest gadgets ever made. The Dextre robot is designed to repair the International Space Station with a lot less risks to the astronauts. Instead of an astronaut going out in space in a suit and oxygen, they just send out the robot. Kind of like R2D2 during his introduction in The Phantom Menace. Read more...
CallMe Prism-I 2008-03-17 19:23:54 While driving down the highway one day, I had this fantastic idea for an inter-auto communication device. This way, you can communicate with the guy in front of you and sent messages like “you’re driving too slow”. I had this idea that all license plates could be something like phone numbers to communicate between cars. However, since most people have cellular phones now, you could probably just call the car in front of you. How would you know the phone number? Just suction cup the CallMe Prism
