At My House


	Listen to this story: Thailand's finance minister was trapped in his BMW when the car's computer crashed.


	"Car's computer crashed." Those aren't words you hear every day.


	The doors and windows locked automatically and the air conditioning went off.


	[Dave] "Open the pod bay doors, HAL!" [HAL] "I'm sorry, Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that."


	Security guards had to break the windows with a slegehammer to get him out!


	Whatever happened to our spaceships to Jupiter, anyway? The future just ain't what it used to be. And didn't those Beamer engineers ever hear of the phrase "Keep It Simple, Stupid!"?
