10 21 08philco Study shows those raised with black and white TV dream in monochrome

File this in the "whoa" department.

Recent research in the UK found that people who grew up watching "Howdy Doody" and grainy black and white westerns dream in monochrome about a quarter of the time. Those of us raised with color TVs our whole lives, dream completely in glorious technicolor. Odd.

The research indicates that exposure to media between the ages of three and ten is when the switch is set, as that’s when the ability to dream kicks in.Click the link for the London Telegraph story on the matter.

In other news, I’ve dreamed about "LOST" every other night for the past six months.

Now there is no need to leave your bed, excpet for those personal chores.

Hollandia’s Platinum-Luxe Elite bed has a mattress made from naturally ventilated, hypo-allergenic Vita Talalay latex covered in aloe vera fibers. There is a telescopic head support for your head and the best part, it has a 32-inch Sony HDTV, BRAVIA 5.1-channel surround sound system, five-disc DVD / CD changer and iPod dock. That should help you to fall asleep if the $35,000 price tag threatens to keep you awake.

town country blackjack Desparate Apartment Wives?

You know that show on ABC? Or is it NBC? Anyways, it about these 50+ year old women with tons of plastic surgery who don’t work and manage to not only ruin their own lives but the lives of everyone around them. Yet, I digress. These women, have no jobs yet roll around in "sick-ass" (in the parlance of our times) cars.

So, the whole point of the story (was there a point?) is that I saw this picture on some Internet site, and i had an idea for a Desperate Wives spin off.

Desperate Housewives …MTV style. It’s perfect. I’ll collect the check anytime.

runco wp 42hd Outdoor TV

As if we don’t sit on our butts too much already, here comes an outdoor TV from Runco. The 42-inch LCD panel is weatherproofed and is a cabinet design to minimize exposure to the elements. It even has a "Winter Mode" to allow it to operate down to -4° F.

Now just one question – who is insane enough to be watching TV outside in -4 weather?? Oh – the ones buying this thing for $8,995!

bristle sofa Toothbrush Couch?

This neat looking thing is actually a couch. Designed by some student at the University of God Knows, this couch is meant to give you a massage while the lazy person reclines. If you ask me, the only think this couch is good for is blocking peoples view of the TV.

Grade: D+ barely.

ps. it’s been 6 months since someone left a message…be the first to write something down!!

    I mean what's to say, it's not like you could use it in the real world. I can't imagine cleaning ...
