This is certainly a pointless gadget in the UK but it hasnt stopped me from REALLY wanting one, if just for the feeling of scaring the living daylights out of myself belting down a road at 100mph in/on a single wheel.
(http://hxxp: www. diseno-art. com/images/mcLean-V8-Monowheel. jpg)
Probably the most extreme monowheel constructed, it is powered by a Buick V8 car engine, and has been clocked at 53 mph, although 100 mph is theoretically possible. 53 mph may not sound that fast but monowheels are notoriously difficult to control, and stopping is another matter.
Most monowheels are used as recreational vehicles on private land, but amazingly this V8 powered monowheel is actually road legal in the US.

Anything you want to tell me about in the Agony Corner?

And you?d be the doormat
Ten karma points for the first correct answer. whistle:

Ok I have to ask, just what was being passed round the office when this idea was started. eeek:
Tired of the lunchtime greasy McBurger with pickle routine? Looking to expand your culinary sophistication without leaving your cube? Look no further than the Fundue? - the World's first desktop USB fondue set. With features like an LCD display, blue LED glowing heater element and fireglow USB cables you'll be the MacDaddiest, most svelte lemming in the office come lunchtime.
(https://www.virtual-pub.com/SMF/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimages.thinkgeek.com%2Fproducts%2Ffront%2Ffundue.jpg&hash=c436ba74487a388fb02db26d753a372923e5f3f8)
Sure, you'll be sucking precious energy from your computer's power supply that your motherboard might need, but who cares when you are also sucking on a piece of crusty french bread drenched in a nutty Gruyere!
Due to current limitations in the USB specification for power consumption, your Fundue should only be used to melt cheeses and chocolates. However, when the new USB 3.0 specification hits the industry (which will allow USB devices to consume much more power), your Fundue will be ready for advanced fondue techniques such as oil dipping and desktop frying!
Features and Specs of your Fundue include:
- 1 Fundue? pot with blue LED regulated heating element
- 1 Fundue? base, with Oil-Guard? technology, LCD screen and control panel
- 1 Blue FireGlow USB device Cable
- 6 Fundue? Forks with included monitor attachments
- Auto-power off mode for decreased loss of life risk
- LCD screen displays current temperature.
- Included CD Software allows you to use your Fundue? LCD screen to optionally scroll MP3 ID3 tags when you listen to music at your computer.
