Time to go a little off topic.

Sorry, not a car topic, but a good little time waster for work or home, provided from the guys over at The 'Awesome Robot!' blog. This made me laugh, and sometimes a little bit of laughter just improves the day right? Anyway, without further ado:


Be sure to check out the Awesome Robot! blog at http://awesomerobo.blogspot.com/, show those guys some love if you're not already!
