Frank Herbert is one of my favorite authors.

I read his masterpiece, [amazon_link id="0441013597" target="_blank" container="" container_class="" ]Dune[/amazon_link], in Junior High and proceeded to gobble up just about everything he wrote thereafter.  In fact, for several years, I re-read [amazon_link id="0441013597" target="_blank" container="" container_class="" ]Dune[/amazon_link] about every other year.  But, I'm not so fanatical about his work that I can't appreciate a good parody.

I'm a cheap bastard.

I love the idea of using spare parts to make something cool and new.  I especially love it if the spare parts make something that I wouldn't normally be willing to spend money on having, even if it is cool.
Digital picture frames fall into that category for me.

Could you rebuild civilization?

I don't make a big secret of my enormous debt.

Today is St. Valentine's Day.

No, really, go ahead and try.
