Podium Cycling sells this boss Pee-Wee Herman skinsuit for your Big Adventures. They also do Spider-Man and various other novelties (light-up Tron, “hipster,” etc), but Pee-Wee takes the cake. (via Pee-Wee Herman cycling skinsuit - Boing Boing)
If you’ve now been foiled in your ambitions to personally own this piece of sixties pop culture goodness, you can console yourself with the fact that you can buy a pretty decent-looking replica online for about $190k (plus shipping from the UK). It’s not exactly pocket change, but the fiberglass replica includes all the expected toys and gizmos — including that rocket exhaust flamethrower — and adds few modern touches (like a six speaker sound system) and puts up pretty impressive performance numbers, like a 5 second 0-60 time.

G4’s Attack of the Show signed-off for the last time Wednesday night. A “secret ending” starring two former hosts from The Screen Savers will be a delight to any TechTV fans
So sad that it ends, but such an awesome ending!

Read the rest here. Pure brilliance.
Not long ago this was, in my mind, the best phone in the world.
How to stop piracy:
- Create great stuff
- Make it easy to buy
- Same day worldwide release
- Fair price
- Works on any device
Wired: If you could pick a company that needs to hear this, which would it be?
O’Reilly: Apple. They’re clearly on the wrong path. They file patent suits that claim that nobody else can make a device with multitouch. But they didn’t invent multitouch. They just pushed the ball forward and applied it to the phone. Now they want to say, “OK, we got value from someone else, but it stops now.” That attitude creates lockup in the industry. And I think Apple is going to lose its mojo precisely because they try to own too much.
