Jun 12 2008Black Box Casemod Is Actually Bright Red

blackbox-mod-1.jpg

Some guy scored an old black box (flight data recorder) off eBay and, after removing the asbestos and fiberglass it was stuffed with, threw a Linux server up in that mother. I love the look, but an indestructible casemod just isn't for me. I need an acid-bath casemod that destroys itself should I not log onto my computer for 24 hours. Because otherwise:

FINAL SCENE
(Inside a small church. It's The Geekologie Writer's funeral. There are only a handful of people in attendance. The pastor begins the eulogy.)


PASTOR

The Geekologie Writer wasn't the brightest star in the sky, nor was he handsome by anyone's standards, but he did love his job. And, as was discovered posthumously, cartoon porn. Superficial Writer, please return to your seat. The Geekologist specifically requested no one pee in his casket.

Hit the jump for a few more shots of the mod.

First!
that is all.

This whole thing of the Geekologie/Superficial/Iwatchstuff not being the same person is getting to the point of being ridiculous.

Oh, and second.

Bantha slippers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That is all.

#2- I know what you mean .. but it's growing on me now. I think it's kind of cute. He's giving them all different personalities. Maybe we can think of him as having a multiple personality disorder? haha!

What? They're the same person? This is worse than the time I found out Santa Claus and my Dad were both boffing my Mum. I'm off to stare at the walls in crushed wide-eyed disbelief.

I like it a lot but these boxes are not indestructible because the flight recorders from the wreckage from the planes involved in 9/11 didn't survive.
The gov't says so so it must be true.
