How about getting wasted without drinking a drop of alcohol? Now you can, with this device. Dr Z made mention to me of this device over a year ago, and now it is starting to become more and more common. I wonder what type of intoxication results. Do you still feel the same as if you downed a bottle of vodka at 9 in the morning?

If would be funny if this thing just burned the hell out of your nose and esophagus with the alcohol fumes. They strap you in and tell you to breath deep. I guess that wouldn’t be that funny, especially if you were the one taking the deep breath. On a side twist, you would think the “health” nuts would be pushing this thing with the slogan “no more beer gut”. Just think of all of the carbs and calories you would not be ingesting. Another I wonder, would you still vomit if you got really trashed? Your body would not have any alcohol in the stomach, so why would it try to expel it. This thing just seems like trouble, especially if it goes right into you blood from your lungs. Saves you liver though.

I have to laugh at the fact that this device is call the “KWIKTOP“. Now how quick can a combination lock bottle cap really be? I bet not as kwik as a normal bottle cap. Just pay attention to where you soda is, that is the trick. Who really has a problem with others drinking from their bottle? One use suggested is if you live with others who may drink your beverages. Here are my two suggestions, neither one involves a locked bottle cap.

1) Nicely ask the people you live with not to drink your beverages
2) If solution #1 doesn’t do the trick, simply put something really disgusting in your Coke bottle. Then when they go to steal a sip, they get so sick they will never do it again.

I just saved you the embarrassment from putting a ridiculous combo lock on your beverages. You can thank me later.

This is the recipe for fun, fun, fun.

Most everyone knows the old saying “One man’s junk is another man’s treasure”. Well, I have coined a new version of that old saying to be used for years to come. “One man’s junk is another man’s junk” This just seems more fitting, considering what people buy and sell. Most of what exists today are just consumer goods. They serve no functional role in our survival. Water, food, and shelter are what we need, the fundamental goods. Everything else is just junk. What a crazy world we live in.

Don’t get me wrong here, I am not being hypocritical, as I have closets and garages full of “junk”. I probably have more junk than you. This is why I breach the topic, welcome to “the junking”

1968-1974 Alcoholics Anonymous comic strips

The title says it all. If you go through the first few, it is interesting to see how the stay-at-home woman is the one who ends up hitting the sauce and getting wasted. Then she leaves her young son home alone while she goes and gets loaded with her other house-wife friends. She returns home to see her house on fire and her son safe in the arms of a local fireman. The neighbors are snickering about her drinking problem.

Its strange, I was just talking about a high-speed rail across the US the other day and I ran across this article. Apparently these babies were safe, fast, and reliable. Somehow (or somewhy) they were killed off in the early 70’s after working out the bugs. Wouldn’t it be sweet to have a few dozen of these babies cruising across the country? The fuel and auto companies probably don’t think so.

• A Cure for Hiccups (A Cure for Hiccoughs)

This is for all you Rush fans out there, who also enjoy Aqua Teen Hunger Force. Freakin here, Carl wants your hand at poker, or better yet, the insult master.

Has anyone heard about this? International Mid-Continent Trade Corridor. Have any major media outlets covered this? What are your opinions on this major corridor from Mexico to Canada. I just hope it means nicer interstates. They should build a really fast train, like the Japanese trains to carry stuff across the continent at 300mph.

Have you ever wanted to rest your head on your mans chest as you fall asleep. Nestle closely to your man as he wraps his arm around you, holding you tight. What if you don’t have a man? What if you are a loner or your man is away on one of his “business trips”. Never fear, the freaky man pillow is here. I don’t know who thought of this, or why, but it is selling in Japan. If you want, you can get one here, only $20. Now there is the Christmas gift for 2006.

The Animator vs The Animation

If any of you have worked in flash this will have a deeper meaning. If this was made in flash, I have a deeper meaning for the person who created it. This would be a TON of work, but it is definitely worth the effort. What a great little animation. Who ever make this knows what they are doing, and had some time on their hands.

If you have never used a computer before, this is still a pretty cool animation. I don’t even want to know what it took to make it. Enjoy.

I posted a link the other day about a portable cellphone booth. Not too conventional or useful, as the thin vinyl and plastic would not keep your conversation private or block the unwanted sounds from the streets. A new trend is developing in restaurants and other public establishments where phone less phone booths are being placed to keep cellphone chatter to a minimum. I for one like this idea. I hate using a cellphone in public, and hate hearing people use their phones even more. I try to contain my use to areas where people are sparse or not going to be interrupted. I hate when I am sitting for dinner with friends and they start answering their phones. I turn mine to silent out of respect, too bad more people don’t. Just think back 10 years, every meal was uninterrupted, and to me that was heaven on earth. My suggestion for those who have to keep their phone on all the time, turn that damn loud, ridiculous ringer volume down to vibrate or the lowest setting. What I hate more than people talking on their phones is loud, distracting, and disturbing ring tones. Stop invading my audiospace, or I will invade yours.

It is all about the experience, and we have known that for about 6 years. Well Volkswagen is taking it to the next level with their new car experience. Many auto manufacturers (read European) have offered for years a new car buying experience where you travel to the plant or corporate salesquarters and pick up your new set of wheels. This usually entails some type of event where you are presented the keys and your new car is unveiled. Volkswagen has built two towers each 20 stories tall that contain cars. Imagine watching your car “picked” from a tree of cars. You then watch it slowly descend to the big doorway, as you wait with keys in hand, to drive off in your new Jetta.

I know BMW has offered something like this for years, where you can buy your car, get some professional driving lessons, then unleash your new car onto the road course. I wonder how many people pay $60,000 for a car then total it less than 12 hours later.

I logged into the blog hoping I had left some crumbles of an article in the queue. No such luck. So I sit here wondering what to share with the world, what to share with our readers. Other than my carpel tunnel that is rendering my right hand useless, nothing new or exciting can be described here. Sure I could ramble on and on about readership, famous TV salesmen, c-rate actors, or even the effervescent Michael McDonald, but that isn’t what this blog is about. This blog is about bringing useful, informational, entertaining short reads to a growing, demanding, and reflective reader base. It is about generating huge profits for my boss, Mr Bagaki. It is about me actually getting paid to type this, and you actually wasting time reading it. Aaaah ha ha, the victory is mine.
