The room long used to store completely arbitrary, random tech artifacts is being cleared out for our new Managing Editor of Maximum Tech. What does that mean? Well, for one, we’re all excited about a new face in the office, especially one who eats and drinks tech for breakfast lunch and dinner.
What else does it mean? Well, it means we found a ton of really (really) random $#@^ in that room, and would love to share it with you. Behold our roomful of totally arbitrary things.
Why the long face? Nathan can barely breath today due to crippling allergies. Here, he holds the kite he flew for our November 2009 cover shot.
So...we found some nerd glasses with no lenses and a baseball mit (?). Yeah.
We found a gigantic hammer and a massive wrench, then decided to try and intimidate people with them. It didn't work.
Gordon: What the hell are you guys doing in here?
*Amber glances down
*Gordon glances down
*Gordon walks out.
Amber proudly showcases the ugliest and most impractical PC case ever manufactured: The Luxor!
Whoa it's the Palm V!
This is what failing-at-trying-to-look-like-a-DJ looks like. We still have no idea why we had a Digital DJ System lying around.
There ya have it. And now that you have it, do us a favor and have yourself an awesome weekend while you're at it. We'll see you next week!

Those slippers are Monty Python killer bunny slippers. You can get them from www.thinkgeek.com. Very cool. Funny pics also.

Do those bunny slippers have fangs? Too bad there wasn't a pitchfork laying around in there too.

I want those slippers Amber is rocking with the Santa suit. I also want the giant tools so that I can intimidate people as well.

This is a prelude to a giveaway, right? We could always write more limericks.

Just give Alan welding goggles, a construction hat and a work glove, and give Nathan a gasmask and that santa suit and they could totally pass as an Engineer and Pyro respectively.
Then maybe, just maybe they would intimidate.

Amber is Santa Baby. I wouldn't mind sitting on her lap. I would probably crush her. LOL..

I think you may be slightly confused. Yea, the comment was kinda creepy, but in case you didn't notice, this Amber is a woman, not a child. I don't see how being attracted to and attractive woman makes you a pedafile.

might be worth mentioning that Amber has site administrator privlidges, so she's fully capable of deleting anything that is gross and offensive. just sayin'

Everytime I go to Home Depot and see one of those big wrenches I want to buy one just so I can carry it around.

The fact that all these items are giant sized probably doesn't help.
Wait. Maybe they're not, and they ARE all just tiny!

No kidding, from looking at the light switch alone it appears that Gordon is a little over 5'7" tall.

That case, while impractical, is damn good looking. I wonder where you would get one?
