That reminds me of a Jetsons episode where they were gaga over this nonsense song...

EEP OP ORK AH AH

Jet Screamer, 1962

Eep

Op

Ork

Ah Ah

Get in the capsule, baby

We are blasting off

Eep op ork ah ah (woooooo)

Eep op ork ah ah (woooooo)

Eep op ork ah ah

And that means I love you

Well now, I took my baby for a ride in space

(Eep op ork ah ah)

We met a little man with a funny, funny face

(Eep op ork ah ah)

He taught us both to wail this way

(Eep op ork ah ah)

And nobody digs a word we say

(Eep op ork ah ah)

Eep op ork ah ah (woooooo)

Eep op ork ah ah (woooooo)

Eep op ork ah ah

And that means I love you

Yeah I read my baby loud and clear

(Eep op ork ah ah)

She just said I love you dear

(Eep op ork ah ah)

Now when I reply the way I do

(Eep op ork ah ah)

I just said I love you too

Eep op ork ah ah (woooooo)

Eep op ork ah ah (woooooo)

Eep op ork ah ah

And that means I love you

Come fly with me

Up high with me

Come on fly with me

And now Eep op ork means I dig you

You heard the word

that crazy word

That word you heard

Eep op ork means I love you

Hop on baby, I'll put you in orbit

woo woo

Most companies would have just slashed the Max line and left a void.

Most companies are run by selfish, fearfull, idiots in suits!

I don't wear a suit.

Props Tyll .

Thanks for detailing some of Headroom's current/future endeavors - one of the more interesting posts I've read in a while (but then again, I'm fascinated with small business).

Come on, take your pick and get a nice double-breasted made up!

Ooo eee, ooo ah ah,

[Voltron]

That's it!

[TheSloth]

Tyll, I noticed that you said that HeadRoom 'needs' to grow to 5 times its current size. What is your thinking behind that, other than 'wouldn't it be nice'?

[Tyll Hertsens]

One more, a good one.

If we get to $25 mil I might not have to draw much of a salary, and live on the dividends work part time, and just ride around on my bike mostly. It's also the satisfactory point in terms od dividend distribution as ROI for the investors.

I'd say it's 15-20 years away. I better be healthy at 70; and I'll be riding a big trike.

Geebus, I just summed up my life.

Take heed youngins, life goes by quick. Stay in school and work hard because the chances of having some time to have fun at the end is a tricky sumbitch.

Tyll, you're a good writer when you really go all out. And a great person. Eep Op Ork Ah Ah.

No, I'm not going to send either of you a free Desktop Portable.

How about one of those orphan Maxes? My sister is very attractive and quite, ah, accomplished I'm told.

I don't wear a suit.

Some companies are run by selfless, fearless, morons in birthday suits.

Or at least barely fitting underwear.

Beat you to it i did

early retirement in just over 4 months... (if i wanna)

I wear a suit. I'm also fearful and an idiot. But I'm not too selfish. So one outta four ain't bad.

Tyll, I think the audiophile desktop is a smart move that hopefully will grow the brand. How are our less enlightened "speaker only" brethren responding to the systems?

[Dusty Chalk]

No, I'm not going to send either of you a free Desktop Portable.

How much ingratiation would be needed for a Portable Micro?

KIDDING...

Does this mean new DIY designs coming our way? Huzzah!

A master of analytical aplomb, you are.

Well, a plum anyway.

Really, put on a purple jumpsuit and go look in a mirror.

Alright, now I'm getting mad.

See that kids, stay in school ... for your whole life!

(Hi Kev! and you know I'm green with envy over the toys you've gotten to play with in your lab. Do you really wanna give them up yet?)

You know I got divorced a year ago right?

One of these would be fine. (NSFW)

'Corse you could get a lot more than a Portable Micro for one of them.

[postjack]

One of these would be fine. (NSFW)

good to hear they have no less then three different options for attaching a penis to a female doll. i certainly don't expect to see that option on any future headroom products, flagship or not.

[Dusty Chalk]

No, I didn't! Who'd want to divorce you? Who'd let you divorce them?

And on a less ingratiating note...my condolences? Congratulations? Divorces suck, even if it's in the best interest of both parties and they both realize it, so I'm leaning to the former.

PS I don't think "ingratiation" means what you think it means -- I think there's another word for that.

PPS I'm kidding about the Portable Micro -- I'll buy one, eventually.

[Tyll Hertsens]

No, I didn't! Who'd want to divorce you? Who'd let you divorce them?

Actooly, it's gotta be one of the world's best divorces. It was a four year marriage. (I've been married once before for 20 years.) We remain quite friendly, and getting friendlier. I wouldn't be surprised to date her again someday.

We both just realized that we want to do our child raising alone with our kids. Raising someone else' kids is hard; and it went both ways, it wasn't easy for either of us.

I think we figured out that we wanted to raise our kids, which is a full time job, with out the difficulties of figuring out a relatively new relationship. Both our kids are middle and high school age, so they'll be gone in 5 years.

It's that first fuckin' marriage that haunts me! That one I still pay lawers about.

[Dusty Chalk]

Ah, I didn't even think of that.

purple is not my color

They actually pay me for this. Make sure it is a private school.

They pay better.

A buddy of mine in alaska started working for the university in high school. He's going to hit full retirement age at 54. He can retire with a full retirement at 54!!@#!@ Being that he's one of the most talented people I know, what that will mean then is he'll go somewhere else, and make more money while banking a healthy retirement.
