    Aw... I almost bought this one. Then i looked at the forums and someone said they bought one and there was a twist to it. Turned out there was a 1,000,000 discount on the bag. By the time i read that and went back to buy one, they were sold out.

    Clutch forgot what today is. I was waiting for the trade announcement sending Yao and T-Mac to a CBA team for a Serge Zwikker bobblehead and a pair of crusty old Chuck Taylors! :D

    How can Google offer this service for free?

    answer: To offset the cost of providing the TiSP service, we use information gathered by discreet DNA sequencing of your personal bodily output to display online ads that are contextually relevant to your culinary preferences, current health status and likelihood of developing particular medical conditions going forward.

    I had about 3 chances get that BoC. First time I saw it, I thouhgt it was just a april fools gag. Then I find it its real, so I go back and buy it. But I forget the secret code so I was denied. By the time i figured out the code and tried again, it was too late. Holiday themed BoC's are the best. Some might have game consoles like the Wii.

    Haha, a cop really pulled one over on me this morning on the way to a gig. He pulled me over and wrote me a ticket for speeding! He was acting totally serious and didn't even break out of character. He even gave me a copy of the ticket with a real court date and everything! It was so realistic!!

    Hilarious!

    Adultswim had been advertising that they were going to premiere the new Aquateen movie on tv before it's widely released to theaters. Of course that fell on April Fools. What they did is during their programming last night, they played the entire movie in a tiny window on the bottom left hand corner of the screen and while you were watching, characters from the movie would pop up and point out that the movie was playing down there and they would tell you to visit the movie website.
