    If somebody can find me an Airbus to borrow, I'm up for some wardriving (warflying?) Or I guess I could just sit outside the airport and point my pringles can into the sky.

    Oh man. Those are really disappointing. I was expecting something way more evil-looking. Like a robotic beaver or something...

    An ice cream machine was recently installed at my high school. (It uses a little vacuum dealie to retrieve the ice cream bars, which is really neat, but that's beside the point.) Ice cream bars cost anywhere from $1-$1.50, but the machine accepts up to five dollar bills. The machine, however, does not give paper change - only coins. So pay for a fudgecicle with a five-dollar-bill and the thing starts churning out nickels and dimes like a slot machine. Problem is, the coin-counting mechanism isn't exactly accurate if you use way too much money to buy an ice cream bar (like ten bucks for a $1.50 popsicle.) On several occasions, I have recieved more change than the cost of the ice cream bar itself. I'm not one to promote embezzling money from ice-cream companies, but a free popsicle and a couple of bucks in profit isn't bad... (Note: since this incident the machine has been fixed)
