@headc4se: I would too...seriously. I'd teach him/her to water ski, and why it is not a good idea to run along power lines and come in contact with the line and the transformer at the same time...kaboom!

Boxlor wonders how horse got onto the floating dock.

@headc4se: So that's why they are the little survivors they seem to be. If cats can't catch them, you know they are tough little guys.

@Pixelologist, Esq.: I'd pay too if it really worked. I'm not a gun person, but the argument is similar. If the sight isn't set right, you aren't going to be able to whack the squirrel that you need as the protein component in your Sunday night stew. With a slingshot, no matter how it is aimed, you are at the mercy…

@ZenInsight: I switched price tags :-)

@Ozzie, The Last Hairbender: Especially for the Monster cable. The piece of mind of a warranty will have me sleeping well at night and not worrying about the cable conking out.

@EvanSei the noise is strong with this one: I was thinking the same thing, but then I thought that I'd just hire a Best Buy Geek Squad person to "optimize" it for me, and somehow talk me into buying a $150 monster cable.

I'm liking this. I travel alot, and some hotel rooms have good TVs to plug my iPad into, but I could point this thing straight up and literally watch TV while lying in bed.

@lilalienpup: Ahhh, South Park. Everything is a target.

@A knuckle sandwiche, please! There is something so funny, yet wrong about this device. The "cool down" facial in the video is classic.

Yah! Now I can dream of tying it in a knot like Long Dong Silver. But, let's how forget about the ladies...

@uttc16: I'll single myself out here. I'm technical enough to connect my PC or whatever to a TV, and if times were tough I would consider dropping cable but probably wouldn't because I would lose things like hockey, baseball, and premium channels.

@Mr. Damage: So if I dress up like a cheerleader from Glee, and roast Rosa a real nice Thanksgiving bird, my chances for a star will increase? Or is that to much "been there done that" and I would need to be more creative?

@FloppyRocks: I didn't even know what they were until I read this post. I spent most of my time mountain biking back then, but am surprised that I have never heard of these things until now. And while it may be fun, my comment was in jest. "How did your workout go today?" "Well, I got a good burn from 25 minutes…

@Gordonium: Ha! Well put. Got a belly laugh out of it.

Wow. Now an excuse to get even less exercise.

I don't think it is "so easy" to drop cable. You can drop cable and still get lots of content, but it comes with sacrifices not the least of which being picture quality or that you lose shows like Dexter, unless you are willing to go back to Torrents. The argument isn't invalid, but it isn't easy to duplicate what…

While I personally wouldn't want a TSA agent fondling my balls, what about the other gender? Women must have an opinion regarding carpet diving TSA experiences.

This all sounds good, but while I'm liking the option of watching a video on my iPad while streaming the sound to my home theater system, in that scenario, I would probably probably be watching the video on the big LCD.

@Brookespeed: It wouldn't surprise me. It's interesting that Apple is now doing, what Microsoft used to be heavily criticized for, but Apple comes out squeaky clean for the most part, and Microsoft is looking tad bit rusty.
