Salvador and the magic box of peanuts

February 5th, 2007 by Atomictumor

Once upon a time a magical box filled with styrofoam peanuts appeared at the house of an addled farmhand named Salvador.

He was curious, so he plunged his hand into the magical peanuts to find out what was inside.

Inside, to his amazement, he found boxes of highish end computer parts!

And a fancy processor! dsc04164.JPG

Being a simple farmboy, Salvador burned the boxes as offerings to the gods for the gift of styrofoam peanuts, and then proceeded to eat the peanuts. Then he shared them with his village.

The end.

(Seriously, can you believe I just wrote this crap instead of opening the boxes? Geez.)

    Spoken like a true techgeek! :)

    I’d have probably done the same thing… sort of.

    Hmmmmm — I covet your goodies. I wish I had a box of packing peanuts that birthed the same things.
