Heavy pc and crt, ok, but the subwoofer too? You know how heavy those things are? This would work in space maybe.

And I wonder where it's getting powered from. Is there an extension cord behind him, or maybe he's got a generator attached to his feet?
- Costa Walcott
But which way would it point? Or should there be two, one aimed at his face, and one on the visor of his hat, to see what he can see?

It's a 'Trojan Horse'!! The hollowed out tower contains 8 Macbook Airs, 25 iPhones, a G1™[product placement by Google] and a handful of Newtons - just waiting to be deployed!

True... where does the Mountain Dew go? Or coffee or Jolt Cola or whatever caffeinated substance he drinks?

Rochelle: thats what the CD Drive tray is for.

An odd thing to get excited about but the bags I ordered for my upcoming deployment to Afghanistan have shipped. The first bag has 6851 cubic inches of storage! Good thing it's wheeled to make it easier to move. The second one is a laptop backpack. It only has 1728 cubic inches but I think that'll be enough for some books and my webcam. :)
I didn't actually find out how large the bags were until after I ordered them. I have a feeling I still don't comprehend how large that one bag is. :) I'll be heading out somewhere in the first week of October. I'm not deploying with a group so the details are still being worked out. Just a quick six month vacation.
- CAJ, somewhere else
Yup, used them on my trip to PA. I packed quite a bit into them. The backpack was quite comfortable and helped keep my paperwork organized.
- CAJ, somewhere else
Yep - brilliant video. And yes, still waiting for an invite even though someone sent me one yesterday. I bet I get it tomorrow when I won't have time to try it! :)

"Shhh. Not everything on the "Mad Men"set is genuine 1960s vintage Manhattan. The sofa, chairs and coffee table in Don Draper's office are made in Los Angeles by Futurama. Owner Jeffrey Perry, who began selling vintage furniture in 1986 and has since reproduced classics in the manner of William Haines and Vladimir Kagan, created the Boxy sofa pictured here with a nod to the late Southern California designer Milo Baughman. Made from walnut veneer with steel legs, it starts at $1,495 and can be ordered in a variety of upholstery fabrics and wood finishes. The chair that Draper (Jon Hamm) is sitting in, above left, costs $750; the coffee table is $495. Pieces can be custom-sized, and delivery time averages two to four weeks."

"This cocktail couldn't be easier to prepare or easier to drink for that matter. The spicy combination of ginger beer, lime juice, and vodka is refreshing in the heat and warming in the winter months. The Moscow Mule is a prefect match for any assortment of happy hour salty snacks—"

(via @PetaPixel) "Every picture taking opportunity allows you to record no less than six correct exposures! Perhaps you have already figured it out after reading the above, but if not, you will soon know that most picture taking situations have at least six possible combinations of f/stops and shutters speeds that will all result in a correct exposure; not a creatively correct exposure but a correct exposure. But only one, sometimes two, of these combinations of f/stops and shutter speeds is the creatively correct motion-filled exposure."

"Like most people, I was initially confused by EMI’s decision to release remastered versions of all 13 albums by the Liverpool pop group Beatles, a 1960s band so obscure that their music is not even available on iTunes. The entire proposition seems like a boondoggle. I mean, who is interested in old music? And who would want to listen to anything so inconveniently delivered on massive four-inch metal discs with sharp, dangerous edges? The answer: no one. When the box arrived in the mail, I briefly considered smashing the entire unopened collection with a ball-peen hammer and throwing it into the mouth of a lion. But then, against my better judgment, I arbitrarily decided to give this hippie shit an informal listen. And I gotta admit—I’m impressed. This band was mad prolific."

"DALLAS—While sitting alone on the porch of his home late Monday afternoon, George W. Bush, 63, chuckled upon suddenly remembering that he was once the president of the United States of America for nearly a decade. At times, the man who authorized two separate wars in as many years wonders if the whole thing wasn't just a dream. "Huh," uttered the amused former world leader, reflecting upon how for eight years he controlled the executive branch of the most powerful nation on earth, executed its federal laws, and acted as commander in chief of its 1.4 million active-duty troops. "President." "Man, oh, man," Bush added. "Ha!" According to neighborhood sources, Bush then clapped his hands together lightly and shook his head in apparent disbelief."

Nice find. mjc, did you see the post about using your own domain/cname + adjix + your own Amazon S3. The namespace is yours, you get the features of a service like adjix and it's a portable solution - you can switch providers at will. http://friendfeed.com/welovea...

Missed it last week. Does the Wazzu flag streak live on?
- Julian
Didn't look for the Wazzu flag, but all 4 of Kirk's kids were there again. It is always cute when they come. Not a bad crowd considering kickoff was 10 hours away when they started

Jesse, I have been one of Dave's principal allies since those early days. He calls TechCrunch names, he's calling me names.
- Steve Gillmor
like I said Dave, when you say something, stick with it or look like you're faking it

I don't want to fight with you Steve. I don't want to fight with anyone -- I just want to write code and work with other developers and users.

Josh, it's been out for a couple of weeks now, hopefully they will enable more features like 1ms30-45s for example, but still lots of potential for video conversations.

Great mustache! Hopefully, the one I'm currently working on looks as good as yours.

I'm sorry, but I'm gonna have to steal this idea from you and make some of my own. I hope you don't mind, cuz I'm definitely doin' it. I can't stop laughing! LOL! IJSMP!!!!

Ok. This is just weird. What makes you think that this is a good idea?

Mona! My uncle, who was also our wedding officiant, told that joke (substituting cellphone for antenna) as the opener to our ceremony! Moments later I remembered that I'd forgotten to turn off my phone.
- Kevin Fox
No way! Your uncle RULES...I would've been the one laughing the hardest haha! Not only was your phone on but you had it with you during your ceremony? Kevin! LOL!!
