Got to love the iPhone - 8 people buy "I am Rich" app for $1000

Following in the footsteps of fashion before function, eight lucky people purchased a "I am Rich" app for their iPhones costing about $1000.  This app apparently does nothing more than display a message "I am Rich" when opened.  Apple has since pulled the app from their store, however, the programmer is demanding to know why.

Holy Grail of Home Theater HDTV has arrived - ZvBox

Finally a distribution solution for the upscale HDTV home theater crowd is now shipping.  The ZeeVee ZvBox can encode/distribute a VGA HDTV signal over a QAM channel on baseband coax wire.  If I can finally justify the $500 pricetag, I will definitely be getting one of these for home.

Bought a few new creatures for our tank - Goodbye to our clown

We just recently purchased:

Flame Angel: http://www.centralpets.com/animals/fish/saltwater_fish/swf1904.html
Finger Leather Coral: http://www.centralpets.com/animals/fish/saltwater_inverts/swi1705.html
Mushroom Coral: http://www.centralpets.com/animals/fish/saltwater_inverts/swi1715.html
Green Button Polyps: http://reefcorner.com/SpecimenSheets/button_polyps.htm

Sadly, our clown severely injured the Flame Angel and several of the coral when introduced into the tank.  After 2 years of having our clown, we decided it was best to take it to the store and let them re-sell it to someone else.

Dependency on Technology - Bad Translation for Chinese Restaurant

Putting their faith into a web based translation software, a Chinese restaurant created a sign to welcome additional English speaking customers.   The english name?  "Translate Server Error"
