IM transcript from work today
Names changed for no good reason, other than you not bothering my friend Josh (he doesn't get enough work done as it is!) Feel free to bother me anytime. links added for fun and profit!
(17:08:03) Josh: http://www.solardeathray.com/index.html
(17:11:00) Me: nice... I've heard of that
(17:12:46) Me: "The fumes from molten plastic can't be good either"
(17:13:11) Me: "Warning! Don't be Stupid!"
(17:13:31) Josh: heheheh
(17:13:33) Josh: yeah
(17:13:51) Me: "The final product is so utterly spoiled that I doubt I could squeeze out a single free hour of AOL 9.0 Optimized."
(17:14:15) Josh: hahahahah
(17:14:56) Me: "There wasn't much else to do but poke at it with a small "science stick." As you can see, the melted surface layers were goo"
(17:15:09) Josh: science sticks rule
(17:15:25) Me: dude, I totally already knew that!
(17:15:40) Josh: hahaha
(17:18:42) Me: I attached a hunk of my jeans to the Solar Death Ray and let nature take it's course. Well, it wasn't really nature, more like technology.
(17:18:50) Me: rofl
(17:18:53) Josh: hahahahahah
(17:19:01) Me: I am soooo contributing money when I get a raise
(17:19:15) Josh: hahaha, we need one of these things
(17:20:06) Josh: Frustrated with the lack of massive destruction, I started to look around the area for a rock. I figured if I couldn't melt the phone I could at least smash it up.
(17:20:28) Me: we need it for burning man
(17:20:32) Josh: hehehe
(17:20:59) Me: bring stuff to burn at solar death ray camp!
(17:21:40) Me: I soooo need one of those
(17:21:44) Josh: yeah
(17:21:45) Josh: seriously
(17:22:22) Me: man, that raise can't come soon enough
(17:22:50) Josh: "so what did you do with the money from your raise?" "death ray."
Bonus!

I Heart Huckabees was really great. I'm surprised it didn't get more attention.
