A Rebirth of Commodore

Yes, Commodore, that computer that seemingly every slightly nerdy family managed to scrounge enough money for way back in the 80's. Some people could afford the Apples, but the Commodore 64 was priced for everyman. I even saved up my meager earnings from mowing lawns and babysitting to purchase my own Commodore Color Computer for $100. It was nicknamed CoCo and was their cheapest machine.

Now, very unexpectedly and way off my radar, they have unearthed as "a designer, creator and full-service provider of digital media products, content and services."

They will debut this year with three machines at the CES convention: the Commodore Multimedia Tower, Commodore MediaBox and the Commodore Navigator.

Picking up Girls in your College Computer Lab

Long gone are the days that college computer labs are full of 99% guys and 1 nerdy girl that may as well be a guy. Now, every student hits the computer labs for papers and for screwing around on the web. (Screwing not necessarily meaning pr0n, but, yeah, there's some of that too.) Hell, it's even mostly non-nerds, as the truly technophile will have a computer (or 5) nestled snugly at home.

Hearken! A maven in the blogosphere has hit upon techniques for this goldmine of chicks that are too busy faking term papers to come up with a good putdown when they are hit on.

Tortoise adopts a baby hippo

This redlines the cuteness factor.

Between this and the crying bunny, my testosterone level this week has plummeted dramatically. I need a hug.
