Fisker does not represent what electric vehicles are capable of- they represent what you get when you combine lots of money with shotty engineering. So who does it better? Well, if you haven't heard of them- Tesla motors is making a lot of headway.

I think that every engineer on planet earth should have -A mechanical pencil -A Protractor -An engineer's scale ( those three sided rulers) -Calipers - TI83/84 I'm not one of those old school flannel wearing engineers, I do most everything on a computer, but there is a lot of value in having a traditional drafting desk with tools like this, regardless of what type of engineering you do.

We all know the big hermit crab didn't work any harder for his shell, he was just in the right place at the right time.

For a second there, I thought the biology tag said biography, and I got really scared. You don't need to know about my tricks yet.

A house should be comfortable first.
Here are some things I suggest

-Double paned windows, soundproofing the outside walls (or possibly the walls around your offices/bedroom)
-Air filtration, humidity, and temperature control (vastly underrated for overall comfortabiliy of house)
-Heated toilet seats (trust me, you won't ever want to go back)

If all your comfort needs are already met, then here are my "fun" suggestions:

-Swimming pool
-Theatre room with projector, lazyboys, badass sound system of some sort
-Computer Closet with extender cables for monitor / peripherals routed out of it (no noise from fans is nice)

I wouldn't hardwire any cables, but having a conduit system is nice. Once you have it installed between your offices and computer closet, you can just pull the cables you need with a fish tape.

The whole "Video games make you violent" debate was squashed in the 90s. Lets leave it dead. I suggest that people who play xbox 360 are in general more pro military than most. I don't want to make a stereotype here, but we all know what the xbox stereotype is: a 16-24 year old "bro" who is libertarian, holds slightly sexist views, and is pro military. Maybe there is some truth in that stereotype.

I guess sarcasm isnt part of the ccna exam :D

Hey does anyone in Kansas City have a REALLY long ethernet cord?

There are bears outside. You want bears to eat our children. Not cool, sir, not cool.

Wait, did you just pitch Prometheus?

As long as we're making movie pitches, they may as well have titles.

Well now I think it was POSSIBLY a joke (though I guess it is an insightful joke, go figure).

Oh, right, dirty jokes. Does that really count as OVER my head?

1990s : "I don't really want a 56k modem, my 9600 transfers my email just fine."
2000s : "I don't really want a cable modem, my 56k does text and images just fine."
2012 : "I don't really want uberfast fiber, my shows stream just fine. "

Come on! Get on board already! Get on that goddamn truck!

I stand as chairman for the Society for Advancement of Rapists Murderers and Bank Robbers, and I would like to pledge my most sincere thanks to you, Sweedish government, for prosecuting crimes like this instead of continuing to persecute us.
