I bet those MacArthur Genius Grant jerks won't even look at this kind of thing.

More and more, I imagine that the Corndog sounds like the original KITT voice.

This is basically treasure. I am going to think of this picture whenever I am in "damn the torpedoes" sort of mood. I will chuckle to myself, because I doubt that anybody I am with would actually be familiar with Achewood and chuckle with me.

Post by: colmore on October 24, 2008, 01:38:50 am: I'm still shocked at can of dumbass. It's so simple and obvious, but I don't think I've ever heard it or thought of it. It's like one of those inventions that makes you slap your head and makes the guy a bajillion dollars. I'm not really a quote-droppin guy in casual conversation, but I'm using the hell out of this one.

Oh man, don't you love the internet? I swear I have no idea what we did before.

Post by: colmore on October 24, 2008, 01:56:30 am: My family had Prodigy in 1988. I don't really remember this "before the internet" that you're talking about.

Post by: littlefallsmets on October 24, 2008, 01:59:33 am: See, where I'm from, my family was considered pioneers for having the internet in 1996.

I think we were the first people who didn't know how to build our own computers with internet in Little Falls.

Yeah, I remember that. There were places where you could even read them for free, right?
