Truly Beautiful, it's almost as if they knew about Squid Blogging Fridays.

On an unrelated note, does the TSA do any security checks or inspections on passengers/crew on Cargo Carriers?

As a bonus feature, it comes with Bruce's private key preloaded on the drive

Nice, yes. On the other hand, you'd be paying 70 bucks for a 2 GB drive, just because the plastic's in a different shape than the usual boxy kind.

Oh, it's plastic. I thought it was real cloned squid flesh and one stored it in a marine aquarium.

Bruce, are you going to get one of these?

Bardin is spot on. Schneier is clueless

Bruce,

I love the Friday squid blogs, but I've gotta ask. Why squids?

Posted by: Matt Simmons at November 8, 2008 9:52 AM


@ John Waters,

"cephalo ipod?"

OK I can think of an obvious use for two of the tenticles,

But what use do you have in mind for the others?

Answers on a postcard to...

Wait! Wait! I'm working on a flash drive that looks like a guinea pig! Honest!

Seriously, the Corsair Survivor series is much more practical, even if it doesn't look "cute".

I'll think I'll get on of those USB wrist watch instead. ;)

We had a guinea pig once. That rascal only wanted to eat and sleep. Man it was huge. I take that your USB drive will work like a guinea pig, ha ha

I have been thinking about one of those GSM watches - a watch and cell phone in one, that is.

Like one of these:

"Schneier is clueless"

Jeez, kind of a harsh statement for one who simply repeated himself. Considering how much he writes, I'd cut him some slack. I bet he at least knows that Africa is a continent.

@clive

The remaining 8 tentacles can be used for either MOLLE attachment and/or interfacing with various japanese made cartoon figurines.

@mckt: "As a bonus feature, it comes with Bruce's private key preloaded on the drive"

No.
They tried to, but there was not enough space on the drive.

I'm still holding out for the Bruce Schneier PEZ dispenser.
