    So does the double negative permit me to buy the heated boots?

    What's an acupuncture massage? It impales you with needles?

    I never really understood the concept of these fancy schmancy thermostats with remote controls. Do people really adjust the temp that frequently that you need a remote??

    @Homerjay is utterly alone.: Well, if the thermostat is on the second floor of a house it doesn't have any idea what the temperature is downstairs. Wireless stats allow you to have the stat control from the area in which you spend your time.

    When it comes to lamps I am quite a bit more flexible with crazy artistic designs.


    I myself started to put the pieces together for my own homebrew techpunk lamp, but that project got sidelined when another extremely cool lamp came my way that gave me that effect with minimal modification and a cool bulb from Spencer's Gifts of all places.


    I absolutely LOVE the three bulb designs.

    It's where I originally intended to go with my own design and it's done really well here.


    I've recently come to the conclusion that every man-cave should have at least one really cool and unusual lamp.

    (whether it's a major award or not.)

    "The round bulbed one was made from a water-cooled dual processor yanked from an Apple G5 desktop"


    What.


    I checked the flickr page, exactly what it says...but...what?


    How does water-cooled CPU = light?


    <--- Confused.

    Ahh passive-aggressive notes. I just had to leave one the other day to the douchbag who left half a stack of soggy post-it notes in the washing machine and the other half some how stuck to every last surface in the laundry room.



    This would come in handy to hold my dryer sheets and passively vent my frustrations.

    is it like those crank-shelving units like they have for bookkeeping records/apple retail stockrooms/etc? (those are the only 2 places I've seen them)


    I just hope he doesn't have to poop in his shower. #1 is acceptable (at times), but #2 is just out of the question
