    I bought someone a Mr Jones watch about a month ago. The Accurate. The wrist band was a little girly in size, but otherwise, no substantial complaints thus far.

    Maybe I'm just not fully grasping the appeal of this, since it's after longest-coma-belch-o'clock, but at least the pretty incomplete rings gives off this feeling of obscure importance.

    Whenever I need a reminder of the world's record for "most bacon eaten in a hour", I just make some more bacon.

    @32ndnote: Have you seen this guy's bacon explosion? If man in total shared his insatiable hunger for bacon, the swine would only be an exhibit in the Museum of Natural History.

    Yeah, and then when Usain breaks one of his own records, which happens pretty regularly, the watch is outdated and incorrect. Dumb, dumb, dumb.

    @InsidiousTuna: I think you're missing the point. Finally! A real breakthrough! A watch that will be obsolete as fast as other consumer electronics!

    The goal is to break the land speed record last year, shooing for 800MPH.


    If I've learned anything from comic books and sci fi, he's gonna have to go a lot faster than 800mph.

    Either that, or only 88. Guess we'll see.

    I could shoot down an F-22 with this if the conditions were right.

    So I suppose the 'car' isn't powered by an engine but a jet turbine?


    That's cheating!
