Ridiculous Crap

2.9 lbs of 14 karat gold and smothered in white and cognac diamonds. This is a necklace that the Boston Celtics' Marquis Daniels owns (it's a necklace of himself). And it's ridiculous. This takes the take for dumb, gaudy jewelery.

Hey Dumb Collectors, GET THIS

Yes, it's just a basketball.

What the hell?!

Yes, a Yao Ming Transformer. This has almost zero to do with basketball aside from Yao Ming being inside, and originally being shaped like a basketball.

Did you ever want to see your heroes being "transformed?"
What's next? A Hibachi - Gilbert Arenas transformer? "Hey Billy, look at that indiscreet hibachi grill sitting on the street." (mechanical noises) "Billy!!! that's not just a hibachi grill, it's Gilbert Arenas the transformer!" "Bobby, I think he's an Deceptacon, we should run!"

And what would a Shaq transformer look like? Maybe a Big Sceptic Tank....or a Big Diesel truck (screams unoriginal), or a Big Cactus. Or just Grimace.

Doctors Getting Dumber?

http://tech.yahoo.com/blogs/null/87251

Dr. Jared Block has to take the cake for "worst Doctor of all time." Yes, worse than Kevorkian. No, Jared Block is a Dr. in Oregon who is pushing for "Internet Addiction" to be included in Psychiatry's official handbook of mental illnesses. Really? Internet Addiction? Block expresses internet addiction as "excessive gaming, sexual pre-occupations, and email/text messaging." Block also claims that "tech junkies" experience debilitating cravings and a strong desire for better equipment.

Someone needs to disbar this guy. Has he ever thought that perhaps society is filled with a bunch of whiny, "where's my bottle types?" Internet addiction is not an addiction!! It's a cop out and it gives people an opportunity to use another excuse. "Oh, I'm sorry ma'am, I wasn't paying attention. I have ADD," now becomes, "I can't help it. I have an internet addiction! I've been diagnosed, seriously. I've just gotta go get online right now."
