So, The AP, here we are. Just to be fair about this, we’ve used your very own pricing scheme to calculate how much you owe us. By looking through the link above, and comparing your post with our original letter, we’ve figured you owe us roughly $17.50 for the content you borrowed from our blog post, which, by the way, we worked very very hard to create. But, hey. We’re all friends here. And invoicing is such a hassle in today’s paperless society, are we right? How about this: instead of cutting us a check for the web content you liberated from our site, all you’ll need to do is show us your email receipt from today’s two pack of Sennheiser MX400 In-Ear Headphones, and we’ll call it even.

You see, The AP, we think you’ll find the first pair of Sennheiser MX400 In-Ear Headphones lightweight and easy to carry, and we think you’ll like how they help you shut out the irritating sounds around you (such as, maybe, people yelling about the actual meaning of “fair use”). We also think you’ll like how that second pair of Sennheiser MX400 In-Ear Headphones will allow you to have one set for home and one set for the office, especially since you’ll probably get sick of going through all the voice mails from your pals UPI and Reuters saying “HEY DID YOU SEE YOU GOT MENTIONED ON WOOT TODAY LOL GREAT BUSINESS PLAN NEWZ DUDZ!” The AP, when you just want to listen to music and drift away to some controversy-free happy place, we promise you, you’ll find the Sennheiser MX400 In-Ear Headphones will hit that sweet spot just right.

Anyway, The AP, please send that proof of receipt to service@woot.com before the end of the day. We’re major digital players now. Don’t force us to pass this matter to a collection agency.

If Foam Could Talk

Some mattresses might think the ability to remember would be a blessing. I say it’s a curse.

My luxury body-hugging memory foam is great for the humans who sleep on me. But not for me. I envy those mattresses who can forget. Normal mattresses can shrug off all the regrets and heartbreak. They can approach each night as if it’s their first. But me… I remember.

I remember Bruce.

He wasn’t with Sharon, my owner, very long. She probably hasn’t thought about him in years. But I still bear the scars. The stains from when he fell asleep eating a bowl of chili. The burns and the odor from his foul grape-flavored cigarillos. The dents and ruptures from the ski boots he wore during intimate moments. And of course, of course the scratches from his pet squirrels, Jean-Claude and Urkel.

The memories aren’t all bad. I remember cradling Sharon through the night she lost her job, delivering her comfortably through to morning on a combination of next-generation memory foam and energy absorbing Intellifoam on a polyurethane base. I remember keeping her cool during the blistering summer of ‘07 with my air flow ducts, relieving those uncomfortable pressure points. Those were the good times.

But once you’ve known Bruce, you cannot be un-Bruced. Unless you’re a regular old mattress. Curse you, Memory Foam. I’ll never escape the past.

Happy Birthday, America.

Sorry. You probably could’ve used this 234 years ago.

It’s the thought that counts though, right? A Bushnell ONIX 350 GPS with Georeference is still a pretty cool gift, even if it’s two and a half centuries late.

Sorry, we should’ve let you finish unwrapping it before we said what it is.

But this thing downloads georeferenced satellite photography for accurate displays of relative distance! Think of how much easier that whole “Oregon Trail” thing would’ve been!

Hey, do you really want to be like this right now? This is your birthday party, and you’re going to yell at us about the gift? That’s really selfish, America. You’ve changed, you know that? It used to be all about doin’ your own thing, but ever since you got into that Manifest Destiny business you’ve been acting weirder and weirder.

Wait. Is this about the whole World Cup thing? Look, we don’t judge. You tried your hardest, that’s all anyone can ever ask. Besides-

Well, that’s more than a little rude. Okay, that’s it. We’re out of here. Enjoy your party, you stuck-up brat!

Letter from Woot Regarding A Tivo

Dear Wooters:

The TiVo HDXL 150 Hour THX Certified DVR has been the most successful product in the history of the world. Ever. Okay, that’s a bit of an overstatement, but we think it’s pretty keen. So we were surprised when we read reports of problems our customers were having with the device, and we immediately began investigating them. Well, not “immediately”. We waited an hour after eating lunch. We didn’t want to cramp up, you know.

We have discovered the cause of these dramatic issues, and it is both simple and surprising in a way that makes us very disappointed with you all.

Upon investigation, we were stunned to find that some of you were holding the TiVo HDXL up to your head as if it were a smartphone of some kind. This is, well, not how you use the product at all, actually. Mostly, it’s used for things like recording up to 150 hours of HD television and movies and playback with THX-certified home theater sound. We didn’t really think we had to explain that to folks, but I guess you guys needed a little more clarity. Weird.

To fix this, we have adopted the view of a very powerful, black turtleneck-clad CEO to best formulate a response that should assist in your use of the TiVo HDXL 150 Hour THX Certified DVR: Just don’t hold it that way.

In fact, don’t hold it at all. Put it on a shelf and connect it to your HDTV and other components. Use the included backlit TiVo remote to access your recorded shows from the comfort of your couch. DO NOT attempt to use this remote as a smartphone. Seriously.

Thank you for your patience and support.

Whoops. As Able Planet CEO Kevin Semcken pointed out, the company chose that slogan to make the point that “It Is Possible” to lead a full, active life despite hearing loss. Products like these Noise Canceling Headphones don’t just deliver clear, full sound for people with normal hearing – they also enhance sound clarity for individuals with mild-to-moderate hearing loss.

To make us feel even worse, our photo of the Able Planet booth included part of a display featuring snowboarding champion Lauren Weibert, who herself suffers from hearing loss. Thanks to Able Planet, she’s able to talk on the phone, listen to her iPod, and talk with CES attendees. If only we’d been able to talk to her before we made our catty little remark.

So we’re sorry, Able Planet. You know how it is: you’re at a huge show, you have to write a quota of dumb jokes every day, you don’t think about who might get hurt along the way. Our bad.

We still like your other slogan – “Hear the Difference” – a lot more, though.

Step Into The Trunk Of My Car

Yeah, yeah, that’s the real price for a real Kindle. It’s not a typo or a knockoff or some Russian credit-card scam – just a Woot exclusive deal. But, y’know, hurry it up, willya?

We’re kind of, shall we say, operating in a grey area here so the quicker we get this deal done, the better for everybody, OK? No muss, no fuss, that’s what we always say. Well, when we’re not saying “What seems to be the trouble, officer?”

So yeah, a bonafide Amazon Kindle at a Woot-exclusive price, the iconic device that wrote the next chapter in the publishing story – listen, you want cheap puns or a cheap Kindle? We ain’t got all day here and we don’t like the look of that guy over there. How long has he been standing there? Is he watching us? OK, time to decide, pal.

Besides, there’s this bar we really need to get to. I don’t know about the drinks but they’ve got the best lost-and-found in town.

John Barleycorn Should Keep Better Track Of His Belongings

“Excuse me, sir, I think you dropped your- uh, never mind.”

The guy didn’t hear me and walked out of the bar. I put down my Red Bull pousse-café and wandered over to the stool he had just left, where something had fallen out of his pocket. Was it what I thought it was?

Yes, it was: a pallet of brand-new iPod Nanos.

Looking around to see if anybody else had noticed, I furtively started my forklift and slipped out with the misplaced Nano stash. I felt eyes peering at me from every shadow in the darkened streets, but that was probably just the Red Bull. Back at my place, I tore open the plastic to find approximately one metric buttload of brand-new 5th gen Nanos – not refurbs – in their retail packages. These babies were loaded: 8GB of storage space, built-in video camera, 2.2” TFT display, pedometer, FM tuner, the whole bit. Score!

Of course, I had to follow my duty under the law to reunite lost property with its owners, I printed up one flyer that said “FOUND: SOME STUFF. IF IT’S YOURS, MEET ME BEHIND THE NAIL SALON/PAWNSHOP AT 67TH & MARTIN LUTHER KING BLVD. AT MIDNIGHT TONIGHT. NO FAT CHICKS.” and posted it in a toilet stall at the Christian Science Reading Room. As I waited there that night, I felt the clock ticking, each second bringing me closer to a life of luxury and leisure. By 12:00:30, nobody had shown up to claim them – so the Nanos were mine! All mine!

I sold them all the next day, went back to the bar, and partied deep into the night, buying rounds and taking karaoke requests (like “Poker Face” and “Black Dog” and “buy me a Miata and I’ll be your new girlfriend”). I was the life of the party at the party of my life. And that’s what brings me back here this morning: has anyone turned in a suitcase containing a million dollars?

It’s not like we asked you clowns for much, you know? You wanted star-caliber performers, right? Well, our uniquely animated talents come with a price, moron. And that price includes Bobble 18.5oz Filtered Water Bottles, two for every member of the band in different colors, and two replacement filters, one Black and one Blue. After all, we get parched up there on stage, and if you think whatever passes for tap water in the town is going to cut it, you are so wrong.

Look, you think Iowa is the only state in the Union that has a state fair, buddy? Heck, Montana was begging, BEGGING, us to play the Little Miss Bovine Pageant this weekend, but we turned them down because we thought YOU actually wanted our wicked gnarly sound here. Clearly, we were wrong. Now, you have exactly five minutes to fix this situation or we are taking our glamour, glitter, fashion AND fame and heading to Big Sky Country where they appreciate a good keytar solo. Are we clear?

I’m the kind of guy who’s usually willing to settle for second-best.

Who am I trying to impress, right? I’ll take my Chevy Cobalt, you take your Maserati, and we’ll both get there at the same time. Once you get used to generic cola and Target-brand pants, living any other way seems like sheer decadence.

But when it comes to digital picture frames, my commitment to excellence turns serious. Deadly serious. And I mean that seriously. Dead seriously. That’s why I can never again set foot in the province of Manitoba. That hoser shouldn’t have come between me and my Toshiba Digital Picture Frame, eh?

It’s the only model I trust with my precious JPGs. It starts with the 1GB of built-in memory and the big, bright 8” 16:9 screen, but it doesn’t end there. The 800x480 resolution. The 500:1 contrast ratio. The two USB ports. The integrated 802.11b/g Wi-Fi, the customizable clock, the video and audio playback. And the sleek, glossy design in either black or white, whichever color seems more excellent to you. It’s a Cadillac full of Dom Perignon with a Kobe beef hood ornament.

Some people go through life content with mediocrity. And I’m one of them. But the Toshiba Digital Picture frame fills me with a greater sense of satisfaction than all the Lladró Porcelain in Spain. Also, it’s considerably cheaper.

Gary, are you sure about this?

I mean, shouldn’t we have a gun or something?

Look I’m totally on board with your quest to get the bad guy, but I think we need a little more than this Kodak ZX1 Pocket Video 720p Camcorder.

Well, like food. And water. And weapons of some kind. And a dialysis machine for you.

I mean this camera’s going to be great once we catch him. I already bought an extra card for the SD/SDHC slot to expand the memory up to 32GB, so we’ll be able to record everything. And this thing’s resistant to rain, snow, sand, and dirt so it’ll hold up while we trek through the mountains.

But honestly I’m more worried about how WE’RE going to hold up.

So look, here’s the deal: we fly back home, I disappear, you say you came this close to nabbin’ him, and hopefully nobody asks too many questions, okay?

I’m calling the airport. You think Southwest flies out here? I have this membership card and all…
