Scientists have discovered two drugs that produce the similar results to exercise in mouse muscles. All mighty mouse jokes aside (I think there’s only one anyway), this could easily be the blogger/gamer/slacker drug of choice, or the hottest new diet pill.
You know Arnold Schwarzengrawr is lookin’ pretty flabby these days.. Bein’ prez can take it’s toll on a dude. Believe me, I know. I was president of the crib bedding department at a Wal-Mart once, and the stress nearly killed me! Okay, that was either a complete fabrication or a Ramen-induced hallucination.
Dig the perfectly toned muscles over at Gizmodo, where the blog posts are actually about the product that they are writing about.. imagine that!

I usually don’t talk about my financial situation on this blog- and yes, I like to joke about eating Ramen noodles, but I really am flat broke. I need all of the income I can get my hands on. This blog, along with a few others, is my main stream of income. To make things worse, big daddy Google slapped my PR into oblivion, making things really tough. I try my best not to fill this blog with horrid and boring ads, and I don’t beg for donations, but I haven’t had a real job for a year, and if it wasn’t for my lovely bride, I would actually be eating Ramen noodles, not just kidding about eating Ramen noodles.
So I’m taking a tip from a fellow blogger and trying out a revenue generating service called RevResponse. The premise is simple and makes sense: you get paid to give away magazines and other content that your audience would would normally be paying for. It’s really a win-win-win situation- you create value in your site by giving away a valuable product, you get paid for giving it away, and RevResponse is surely getting a piece of that action as well.
This plan sounds like a winner to me, so I’m going to give it a shot and dedicate some sidebar space to one of their widgets. They have much more than widgets, and say that they can help you monetize every aspect of your web presence, but I’d prefer just to slap a widget somewhere and be done with it myself.

So, this USB flash drive looks like a nail. You could probably use this to make your pc resemble Frankenstein’s monster with a little effort. Then again, there are the endless jokes about your computer getting hammered, nailed and crucified. Okay, maybe they aren’t endless… in fact, there are only about a handful of them to be made.
Unfortunately, for the 1 Gig of memory that this thing provides, the manufacturer wants nearly fifty bucks! Last time I bought a flash drive of this size, it cost me ten. Shop around, people!
I want a USB flash drive that contains viruses and resembles a screw… let the jokes about your computer being screwed begin!
Thanks to OhGizmo! for this find, among many, many other tech blogs who covered this. But hey, I stole the puns from OhGizmo!, so they get the linkage.
