Dreadlocks

Semi-conscious discussion last night in bed after just having watched the Bionic Woman kick a blond dreadlocked bad guy's ass.

"You can never have dreadlocks."

"Would take too long to grow...then again, my hair grows really fast. Probably wouldn't take that long to start it."

"Groan."

"Instead of blond though, I could dye each dread a different colour! Hmmm, might end up looking like the gay pride flag."

"My soul is bleeding."

Wish List



Sure it costs $78 million dollars, but who wouldn't want their own personal luxury submarine.

At 65-meters (213 feet) in overall length, and with a beam in excess of 8 meters (26 feet), the Phoenix is a vehicle of formidable size. Yet despite its 1500-ton displacement, the submarine is quite streamlined. Given the significant waterplane area and ample internal volume, which allows for greater battery storage, the Phoenix will out-perform smaller counterparts in surface speed, submerged speed and submerged endurance. The large pressure hull diameter allows for very large acrylic viewports, making the undersea viewing capability truly extraordinary. The interior space, with the noted absence of structural bulkheads, provides for tremendous versatility in interior layout and space planning. And finally, the Phoenix's large size coupled with its integrated roll stabilization system makes surface transit quite comfortable in all but the worst conditions.


It can stay submerged for two weeks straight and even comes with its own mini-sub that can dive to 2000 feet (the Phoenix is only rated to a 1000) or shuttle passengers to the surface. It's so automated it only requires a crew of 4 to operate. The only thing it needs is a global crime syndicate.

Cool CPU

I'll never go back to PC's after having a Mac, but if I did, I'd definitely get this guy to build me a tower.
