As absolutely retarded as this sounds I do have to admit a bit of envy. A giant robot in my image smashing building along the Las Vegas strip would be kinda cool. There is no word on the creation of little children robots for the MJ robot's amusement.If built, the metal monster would apparently be visible to aircraft as they come in to land in the casino capital.
It is the centerpiece of an elaborate Jackson-inspired show in Vegas, according to Andre Van Pier, the robot's designer.
Luckman Van Pier, his partner at the company behind the proposal, claims blueprints have been drawn up for the show and seen by the star.
"Michael's looked at the sketches and likes them," he told the New York Daily News.
On the subject of the robot, he continued: "It would be in the desert sands. Laser beams would shoot out of it so it would be the first thing people flying in would see."

Million Dollar Laptops
Gizmag has more on the laptop if you are interested. But let's make a quick comparison as to what you could do with a million dollars other than blow it on this magical laptop. For $5,600 you can get an Alienware laptop with 400 GB RAID, 2 GB RAM, dual 512MB NVidia® GeForce™ Go 7900 GTX video cards, and a 19 inch screen. If you are a mac dude, you can max out their 17 inch macbook pro at around $3,500. In either case this leaves quite a chunk of change to splurge on other items.Luvaglio CEO Rohan Sinclair Luvaglio told Gizmag earlier today: “Unlike many of the highly priced products being released, we took our time to develop something out of the ordinary with real attention to detail. “
“I didn't want us to simply re-house a laptop into a diamond studded casing, or diamond encrust the entire thing simply to make it expensive. We've put thought in from the keyboard down to the power charger. There is an integrated screen cleaning device and a very rare coloured diamond piece of jewellery that doubles up as the power button when placed into the laptop and also acts as security identification. We have used diamonds elsewhere but have given them purpose.”
Let's see a fully loaded Porsche 911 Turbo will run you about $130,000. We are still $65,000 short of a fifth of the price of the laptop. So lets allocate that $65 grand for a top of the line ski boat, a Correct Craft Air Nautique 226. Now we are up to about $200k. For another $725k you can get a 3,630 sq/ft house in Orlando with access to the Butler chain of lakes. This allows you to wake board in front of Tiger Wood's house if you so desire. The extra $75k you can spend on coke and strippers throwing an extravagant house warming party. Or you could get a 420 hp Audi RS 4 and have enough cash leftover to purchase a laptop in two years that is twice as fast as your million dollar diamond encrusted computer.

I'm a good driver
ATHF is the Bomb!

Do Lite-Brites make you duck for cover? Perhaps the mere sight of Ignignokt fills you with fear of the dreaded Quad-Glacier. Maybe you are just tripping your balls off and easily suggestible. The discovery of these LED throwies placed the city of Boston in DEFCON 1. In a post 9/11 world it is understandable to error on the side of caution and take these reports seriously, but Boston officials showed no shame by getting duped by this tragic marketing gimmick.
Turner Broadcasting agreed to pay $2 million for costs and restitution for the overzealous police response and pressed charges of placing a hoax device and disorderly conduct on the miscreants that placed the devices.
“Just a little over a mile away from the placement of the first device, a group of terrorists boarded airplanes and launched an attack on New York City,” police Commissioner Edward Davis said in an interview with The Associated Press.
“The city clearly did not overreact. Had we taken any other steps, we would have been endangering the public,” he said.
I know I can sleep safe at night after the courageous actions of the Boston police Commissioner.
