not much said here lately.....

So........


here's a joke for everyone...



A policewoman pulls over a drunk driver and asks him to step out of the car.

She says, "Anything you say can and will be used against you."

The driver replies, "Breasts."

Watch it you guys or else Chris will give you a time out! I've got no time for jokes while I watch this thread waiting for news of the updated watch. I'll keep watching as the time is getting closer, feels like only seconds away.

A man is at Grand Central Station waiting for his train that leaves at 6 p.m., but he has forgotten his watch. So he looks for someone to ask the time. He spots a guy carrying two suitcases and sporting this fabulous hi-tech watch, so he asks him for the time.

The guy replies "Sure, which country?"

The fella asks, "How many countries have you got?" to which the man replies, "All the countries in the world!"

"Wow! That's a pretty cool watch you've got there."

"That's nothing," the man says. "This watch also has a GPS facility, fax, e-mail and can even receive NTSC television channels and display them on its miniature active color pixel LCD screen!"

"Boy, that's incredible. I wish I had a watch like that one. You wouldn't consider selling it by any chance?"

"Well, actually the novelty has worn off for me, so for $900, if you want it, it's yours."

The watchless traveler can hardly whip out his checkbook fast enough to hand over a check for $900.

The seller takes off the watch and gives it to him. "Congratulations, here is you new hi-tech watch." Then, handing the two suitcases over as well, he says, "And here are the batteries."

A real update... Those who have seen the prototype have already said it looks better in person than in pics... Chris sent me the proto so I could show the Austin Shark Society (***!) guys this past weekend for the two events that we had and I have to agree! Looks pretty damn awesome in person! I think it will look even better with the red all in the same color and super-lumi! Can't wait to see the real deal!

Did the fancy watch tell time?

I just want a watch that looks great and tells me the time...........then I'll look for a cell phone that makes phone calls

I'm hoping that the Germans do not take extra long holidays and we can get back to business soon.
