I don't give a good gorram about relevant, Wash. Or objective. And I ain't so afraid of losing something that I ain't gonna try to have it. You and I would make one beautiful baby. And I want to meet that child one day. Period.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

And, um, several sheets of these.

Maybe I should just rent Jilli to come sit by me at readings.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Crap, this may be beyond my hardware hacking ability. But I wants it!

How-To: Build a synthetic aperture radar from $240 of junk

Ever wish you could build a radar system like the ones used on space missions and spy satellites? Want to do it for less than $250? Well then, Greg Charvat has the solution for you, with The $240 High Resolution X-Band Linear Rail SAR Imaging System. By using his intellect and skillfully mining ham radio swap meets, he was able to build a working synthetic aperture radar (SAR) capable of capturing high resolution scans of tiny things. For instance, the above message was actually written in push pins, hidden behind a foam plate.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

So that's why NYC is so crowded!

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Allyson, did you notice that on the stamp the bat's body is a cupcake? (at least, that's what it looked like to me ... but I'm about to go to lunch and I'm hungry)

Also, this is cute.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Allyson, please tell me you really are buying the shoes.

By the way, does anyone here know how to coax the grading fairies out of hiding? I need one.
