Red's protective shipping case revealed!

[CVB]

Ok, so I was hopping around on Google Patents, my new favorite website (aside from dvxuser) and found this .... I think I stumbled upon the elusive RED one shipping case!

Seriously though... Jim has like a bajillion patents and I'm wondering what it is actually for.

Looks like a sunglasses case to me: No latch, no straps, no handle, sunglass aspect ratio.

Very cool though, and thanks for turning me on to Google patents--hadn't come across that.

Ahh.. right.. sunglass case, that would make sense

I dunno, it looks kinda small for RED one...

Then again, who the heck would put so much work into an awsome metal box for sunglasses?? .. oh right, this is Jim we are talking about. :laugh:


- Mikko ... trying to score some Oakleys

Kool site. I did notice it said issue date of May 7, 1996 so that would most likely pre-clude any thought of Red. Nice find on the case Mikko.

Curt,

I have the answer you've been looking for... Ambien. Magical stuff. Knock you right out... other than an occasional drooling & mumbling "Mama, please don't let Uncle Jesse dance with the squirrels." I'm not sure what that means or why I wake up wearing a garbage bag, but I generally sleep well at night.

LMFAO!!!

Ambien is crazy. My mom takes that stuff. She knows nothing about computers, but managed (while on ambien) to completely re-format her dell laptop, install all of the software, drivers, etc. and get it working again. She doesn't remember it at all.

Not to mention there have been reports of people driving around and not remembering it when they were on ambien. sounds like a lawsuit waiting to happen

[Damon Botsford]

Yeah, I was kidding of course. Just a fun jab at Curt for being squirrely in the wee hours of the morning. I've tried Ambien many times and it hits me like a brick wall. My girlfriend caught me one night staring at my computer mumbling incoherently. I'm wired late at night and really squirrely, so I usually have to take something. I've since found a natural alternative. You're definitely right about the lawsuit potential. In fact, I have a friend who is working on a screenplay about a sleeping pill that turns people into lunatics. I'm hoping to produce it.

 

[CVB]

Uh, yeah. Not a big ambien guy but like Jim, I too do not sleep.

Don't know how I missed that site... Very cool it returned one page with all three of my patents. Kind of humbling 1 page compared to Jim's 218.

Red Case = Pelican.
