I want this shirt.

Description:

We decided to make a shirt in tribute to one of the first traumatic experiences in life -- the visit to the pediatrician. It involves hanging out in waiting rooms with sick kids, toys you're not allowed to play with because other sick kids have been touching them, and an oversized children's Bible as the only reading material for folks under 3 feet tall. When you finally see the pediatrician, he does something to distract you so he can give you a shot, and all you get in return is a lollipop. Not a fair trade.

Our 100% cotton black shirt features the phrase "You Never Forget Your First Doctor" under an inexplicable picture of an old-style British police phone box with a white starburst behind it. We have no idea what's going on with that.

I'm also waiting for the day that someone makes an external hard drive that doesn't look like a book or a modem, but...looks like a TARDIS. Or like a miniature model of Minas Tirith. Or something else profoundly cool and geeky. You think it's a generic desktop decoration...BUT IT'S A HARD DRIVE! Awesome, neh?

what exactly is a usb hub?

It's a computer appliance that gives you more USB ports - I needed one back when we had an ancient Win98 machine interim replacement computer because I had more USB stuff to hook up to the box than the box had USB ports.
