I imagine if Apple ever decided to get into the automotive industry they might design something along these lines, except in Black. It definitely doesn’t have Apples design savvy for the interior of the vehicle and the computer interface. The trunk space is pretty limited even for a two seater, but the outside sure is pretty.
The picture is of the Tesla Roadster from Tesla Motors. A 100% electric car, zero to sixty in 3.9 seconds, a top speed of 125 mph, approximately 256 mpg and yes you can connect your iPod to it.
According to the folks at Crunch Gear, Governor Schwarzenegger will be speaking at a press conference about Tesla’s plans for new 4-5 seater sedans to come out in the next few years.
For a measly $100K or so, you can get one of these.

This guy has truly captured the essence of Wolverine with his killer home made costume.

This was probably one of the funniest and disturbing episodes of South Park.

I need a little puppy and a hammock. My dogs are so big and restless I think the neighbors are feeding them sugar coated steroids.

New Leaf: The Pain

I’ve been hitting the gym about 4 days a week I think. Same routine, I hit the bike then the treadmill. The amount of time varies, but nothing any more exciting than what I’ve already posted about.
Yesterday I decided it was time to try another machine, something to work my abs. All the machines really look like medieval torture devices, but eventually I found one with pictures on it, that looked like it should work the abdominal muscles. Now someone left the machine on like 140lbs of weight. I climbed into this contraption and tried to do a crunch. It was a little much to start out on. I massaged my ego by recalling the phrase “low weight. high reps”.
So I put the unit on 80lbs and did four sets of 20 crunches. Then one set of 10 crunches at 100lbs. I think that was pretty good to start.
Next I moved back to the usual machines, 40 minutes on the bike of eternal uphillness and 10 more minutes on the treadmill.
This morning I was in for a surprise, as I woke up and tried to sit up I felt an unusual and confusing pain. My abs were on fire. Getting dressed this morning proved to be unpleasant. My shoulders and triceps are a little sore as well.
iPhone Scratches

Grrr. I’ve dropped my iPhone many times, broken a few cases too. Yesterday though, I was butter fingers Supremo and it landed face down. There’s now a few little scratches, right in the middle of the screen. It’s so annoying. I think I’m going to give the toothpaste trick a try or maybe take it to a glass shop to see if they can buff it out. Bastards.
