You Whites Are LOMO…Err…Loco!

Remember the mystery message with the Man Ray quote?
Not so mysterious anymore. A trip to the official Stripes website revealed that our favorite rocking duo is…

You’re Pretty Good Looking (For A Drive)

In the future, everything will be powered by wireless electricity. Your car will drive itself, speak to you intelligently about a number of topics, and may or may not appreciate you calling it “Kitt.” Touch-screens will be integrated into every household item, including milk cartons.

Wait. What?
The future is now! Introducing these two stylish, limited-edition USB thumb drives. Sure, only 3,333 of each will be made and they do cost a pretty penny (one for $57.50, both for a slightly discounted $99), but look at all the …read more
