I sure as hell can't afford a hybrid vehicle. The Prius starts at $20k new (of the 9 basic models of Toyota cars, it is the 3rd most expensive.)
I work two jobs, go to school, and live in a city where public transportation sucks (Tucson, AZ). I'm a damn greedy fat American for driving my beater 15 year old Mercury Topaz. 18 years old is not a good time to get into $20k of debt. I use maybe $500 of fuel a year on a car that costs probably just over that much.
I would love to have an alternative fuel or hybrid vehicle when I can afford it. It'll probably be a while before I earn enough to afford one, and their prices drop. I think the reasons why people are reluctant to use the first generation of new technologies is that they're more comfortable with them being a bit more battle-tested before they buy. As much as we would like to think otherwise, the thing that is going to kickstart development and use of alternative fuel technologies is when oil drilling falls off of the peak and it becomes terribly expensive to drive yesterday's cars.
I'm accepting donations if anyone wants to buy me one so I can do my part to the environment.
The winner, a red robot named "Rockem" was quoted as saying "We had some talented fighters in the tournament. Finally this is beginning to catch on in the mainstream."
The runner-up, a blue robot named "Sockem", could not be reached for comment.
All in one device to apply to the less savvy of us.
I know my parents would rather have an all-in-one surround sound reciever/dvd/vhs/mp3 system, just because it would be easier for them to operate (hittin' buttons on one black box rather than 3.)
With that said, I have my PC(which does games and everything else) and my gamecube (which does a few games I like), so everything else can shove it.

Windows CE is the embedded operating system in all the black helicopters.
If it's anything like Epson's other offerings, you have to buy $40 of colored ink every month or so to keep it flying.
Perverts around the world are waiting for the model with a camera.

They say that about nearly every protection/security scheme. And I can only think of a handful that really are "unhackable"
This is giving a new meaning to my hobby of loafing around at work.
Now people will think I am using some goofy friendfinder software, instead of cool non-work activities.
Now I should start working.
The Onion is, however, dispatches from the 10th circle.
He may be called Bonzi, but he is not your buddy.
Maybe I'm insane, but I just went into the preferences of quicktime and disabled the quicktime agent.
That did the trick for me. Realplayer make my brain crazy, so I downloaded RealAlternative.
The truck is mostly white
Too bad Killhammed Aiee got injured in the prelims, he would have taken that title.

So that's why I've only been getting Optimus Prime's voicemail for the last week.
For any of you in Japan, look for a white truck parked nearby.
Ask P-Diddy.
He frequently samples other artists' work and then makes millions. Reminds me of an archived Onion article, which you now must pay for

How am I going to know if I won a 3 free day trip to Hawaii for being the 82,711,365th visitor?
Not to mention X-10 softcore.
Pretty sure the memory is Samsung.
Wrong! This was developed in Japan, so all the astronaut needs to do is use the Starwaker baton and conduct a tune to change directions.
The Americans have to wait about 6 months to get this technology, unless they install a modchip on their spaceships.
I actually prefer my Planar LCD to my 17" Sony Trinitron for games. Go figure.
And kangaroo militia.
As they have no firearms for revolution!
Wield your slingshots and wield them proudly!

Thanks for the /sarcasm tag. I forgot my /humor tag, I thought it wasn't needed.
