aargh..

unless these drives provide a significant difference in space from flash medium storage i simply see them as redundant..

storage with no moving parts is better for backup if it's around this size..

time will tell.. but it looks geeky kool

but they are sooooo cute.....

The biggest thing for me is the cost of high capasity flash :-(
Here there is a pro/con ...

i doubt those small drives will be any cheaper now that flash (especially SD cards) are quickly devalued..

and here's a really cr@p swiss joke i just got in my office mail..

Ein Nackter springt in Basel in ein Taxi. "Ins Casino !! Schnäll !! Dört isch hütt e Masggeball und i bi scho schpoot draa!"

"E Masggeball?", sagt der Taxilenker verwundert, "Si hänn jo gar kai Goschdym!"

"Seesch nid das Kirsi?", meint darauf der Nackte und deutet auf eine Kirsche zwischen seinen Zähnen, "Das isch mi Goschdym. I gang nämmlig als Mon Cheri!
Und jetz faare Si ändlig!"

"Minetwäge" brummt der Taxifahrer und fährt los. Er braust durch die St.Alban-Vorstadt dahin, bis er plötzlich eine Notbremsung machen muss. Den Nackten hinten schmeisst es nach vorn, dann nach hinten, und -GLUPS- hat er die Kirsche verschluckt.

"Sinn Si waansinnig ?!" herrscht er den Fahrer an.
"Was faare Si zämme! I ha s Kirsi verschluggt. Jetz han i kai Goschdym me.
Was mach i nur, was mach i nur? Ha ! Sie göön jetz sofort in das Geschäft dört äne und bsorge mir e neus Kirsi!"

Maulend steigt der Taxifahrer aus und verschwindet im Laden. Und kommt ewig nicht heraus.
Endlich kommt er zurück, wirft dem Nackten ein Konfitürenglas nach hinten und fährt weiter.

Der Nackte: "Was isch in däm Glas?"

Der Taxler: "Himbeerigonfi!"

"I bruuch aber e Kirsi!"

"Hänn sy kaini gha!"

"Und was söll i mit dr Himbeerigonfi?"

"Schmiir dir s in Arsch und gang als Berliner!"

man that's a bad joke

no wonder it's a basler joke

it's an swiss inter office joke.. i will reward the person who can submit one that's worse than this with a beer (no more gingerbread houses, xmas is over, sorry), even be it the palace hotel.. but it really has to be worse..

good luck ;-)

A family walks into a talent agency. It's a father, mother, son, daughter and dog. The father says to the talent agent, "We have a really amazing act. You should represent us."

The agent says, "Sorry, I don't represent family acts. They're a little too cute."

The mother says, "Sir, if you just see our act, we know you would want to represent us."

The agent says, "OK. OK. I'll take a look."

Let's not waste anytime. The father immediately wants everyone to get ready for what he calls " that girl is alright, that girl is air tight" The father lays on the floor and shows the agent a gargantuan hard on that his small daughter does not hesitate to jump on and jam up her snatch with obvious pain but tons of vigor. The son walks over and warms things up by kicking the daughter right in the mouth while she is still bouncing on Dad's huge pecker and then spits her teeth into the mothers face who now is kneeling beside her family giving the dog a handjob, his part is still to come. Without any teeth to bother the boy he jams his hard dick in the face of his sister and begins to face fuck her as Dad picks up his tempo and the momentum is actually shaking the glass of water on the agents desk. We are ready for the main event Mom takes the now rock hard dog and pushes his doggy dick up her daughter’s ass to give final ingredient to this recipe triple penetration. As dad, son and doggy pound on this little trooper, Dad sings in a crooner twist " That girl is alright, that girl is airtight". As a side treat Mom lays on her back and pulls legs way back over her head and strains and pushes out a projectile watery shit that shoots into the air pauses for a sec before falling splattering all over face in a perfect mask of feces and broken teeth. All three male combatants then shoot their wads deep in side the girl releasing their cocks giving her what looks like melting vanilla ice-cream dripping from all three orifices. The Dad punches everyone unconscious and sprints to edge of the agents desk does a "Jazz Hands" shake with a pearly white smile says “Yeah!”

For the longest time, the agent just sits in silence. Finally, he manages, "That's a hell of an act. What do you call it?"

And the father says, "The Aristocrats!"

I don't think that was a worse joke - I just think it's one of the sickest jokes I've ever heard. I'd love to see you telling that one to your family around Christmas dinner...

(which to my embarassment I actually find extremely amusing)

A man walks into a fish mongers with a large salmon tucked under one arm.

He walks up to the fish monger and says, "Have you got any fish cakes?"

The fish monger looks at him in confusion and says, "No, sorry mate, this is a fish mongers, we only have fish."

To which the man responds pointing at the salmon, "Oh, that's a shame, see it's his brithday today", and walks out.

you actully made me smile.... YOU BASTARD

ok, you two.. you're both fucking disqualified..

sn00's story was just plain revolting.. (don't forget to add a not safe for chesty symbol next time.. )

and I found bmacd's story too cute and funny.. so i think i'll have buy you a drink anyway.. and sn00 too since he will be my good host next week..

so i won't have to be rude and start a bitch fight.
my attempt (but i want a cosmopolitan):

a cowboy is captured by darned injuns. before they kill him they tell him he has three nights to live and one last wish each night. which is improbable but very sporting.

So anyway the first night the cowboy asks to talk to his horse. bemused, big chief little water agrees and watches as the man whispers something into the horse's ear. The horse shoots off and comes back a short while later with a beautiful blonde on his back, which he deposits in the cowboy's wigwam. Big chief little water is impressed and decides he will keep the horse when the cowboy kicks it.

The next night the same thing happens, only this time the horse comes back with a ravishing redhead who then also spends the whole night in the cowboy's tent. Big chief little water is fascinated, and decides to find out what the trick is.

So the final night the cowboy again asks to speak to his horse and big chief little water crouches outside with his ear to the wigwamflap. He listens closely as the cowboy leans over to the horse and whispers in his ear
'now i'm going to give you one last chance, you stupid fucking horse. Bring POSSEE'.

that was also alright..... made me smile, but not laugh

A family walks into a talent agency. It's a father, mother, son, daughter and dog. The father says to the talent agent, "We have a really amazing act. You should represent us."

The agent says, "Sorry, I don't represent family acts. They're a little too cute."

The mother says, "Sir, if you just see our act, we know you would want to represent us."

The agent says, "OK. OK. I'll take a look."

The Father pulled out a whistle and yelled "A one, and a two, and a...", then blew a high, piercing cry from the whistle. Immediately the action started. The son punched the daughter, making her fall to the ground, while at the same time ripping her blouse off; The mother stripped, pulled a swiss army knife out of her snatch, opened it, and stabbed the dog in the back of his neck. The Father, who had quickly disrobed, picked up his dog and shoved his dick in the dog's mouth so hard it came out of the newly cut hole in it's neck. The Mother jumped and sat on the daughter face, waxing her nose with her shiny graying pubes, all the while the son started eating out the daughter. The mother grabbed the father (who's cock was still in the dog's mouth, and sticking out of his neck) and enveloped the exposed head of the father's dick with her lips, deepthroating it as far as she could with the dog's lifeless body between herself and the dad. While this all was going on, the father began to pull an imaginary slot machine handle above the mother's head. On the third pull, she spit his cock out of her mouth, and yelled "JACKPOT!!!" and took a huge shit between her daughter's tits. The father raised both arms in the air as if in victory, and began counting down from 10. The Son looked up, stood up and moved 5 feet back from his shit covered sis. The mom stood up, looked behind her, and stuck her fingers in the poo. She then put a heavy streak of shit under each eye. She ripped the dog off of the dad's dick, opened her legs, and as the son said "hike", hiked him the dog through her legs (while she pissed on it) and into the son's hands. The son, stood back and punted the cut open, urine covered, mouth fucked, carcas of a dog right between the Dad's raised arms. The family then all stood in a line next to each other and bowed.

For the longest time, the agent just sits in silence. Finally, he manages, "That's a hell of an act. What do you call it?"

And the father says, "The Aristocrats!"
