ramen-fanatic

Anyone who has been following this blog for the last few years (mom?) knows that I dropped the Top Ramen shtick in 2008 and that 2009 was supposed to bethe year of the Cup Noodle here at the Shack.

Truth be told, this picture wasn’t actually sent to me, I just found it at some other random blog and it reminded me of the good old days.. you know, when the Ramen flowed like water and Entrecards sold for half a cent each.

Oh well… 2010 is supposed to be the year that some government officially declares that aliens exist. Rumor is that France will be the first. I hope that aliens like cheese.

Meanwhile, if any internet ladies would like to send me instant noodle tributes, I’ll gladly post it on this blog along with a link to the (work safe) site of your choice. Cup noodles are also acceptable!

See this guy sitting in that crazy contraption? He’s been to every corner of the United States on that crazy vehicle, and that vehicle goes seventy miles per hour. At least that’s how the story goes.

The plate sitting on top of this vehicle is a solar panel. He has a radio and a TV in there, but there’s no word on lighting fixtures – though one can only assume he has some sort of a light source on the inside.

Be sure to check out the full story along with several more pictures at the source

There are two things in this world that I may never master: skateboards and unicycles. At least with skateboards, there’s the option to sit on it and push with your hands. The unicycle offers no such option- if you can’t ride it properly, you might as well give it away. For those of you with the keen balancing skills needed to master the unicycle, I present to you a more challenging unicycle- one that is powered by electricity. Luckily for you, someone has decided to add gyroscopes to this to make it a bit easier to handle.

Leave it to Japan to come up with a USB powered cigarette that doesn’t actually contain tobacco. Supposedly it produces some sort of smoke, but most likely the aromatherapeutic kind that any Mesothelioma lawyer worth his salt would despise. The product page is completely useless as well:

How is the Ministry of aerosol charging is complete in itself and very easy to set the cartridge.The only draw suction from the mouth, the pump mechanism of the weak solution mist through the mouth and draw air sensors automatically. Nicotine, tar will not be detrimental to health that are not recommended to go to when I quit smoking.

Oh yeah, thanks for clearing that up for me! Sheesh. I think I’ll pass on your new-age electronic smoking device, thank-you-very-much.

Somehow, this robot is intended to help the less fortunate… how a flaming, torso-less cart pushing robot does that is beyond me… Unless the idea is to scare the homeless into actually working for a living. I know that it would work on me!
