Things you think they should have fixed by now

I'll start:

Suction cup GPS/device docks - hate them so much, and they always seem to fall off at the worst possible moment...

Your turn

every suction-cup device sucks. think of the in-shower shaving mirror, shampoo and soap shelves...whatever. None of that ever works. Probably b/c they are all used in improper places (window gets too hot for GPS dock; too wet for in-shower use)

The latest Nobel Peace Prize award - why hasn't it been taken back and the committee come up with some lame-o, but "at least they have one" excuse as to how the hell Obama "won" it for "all his hard work" during the first two weeks of his presidency.

I'd settle for high speed rail. Here in Florida we had a plan to build three high speed trains linking our large metro areas: Orlando, Tampa and Miami. The Fed was going to give us 400 mil and all we had to do was match it. This Fed money was pre-stimulus, it was budgeted back in 2005 and was part of the normal Fed transportation budget. Well, it got voted down. We're going to try again next year.

It would be pretty sweet IMO. 20 minutes by train to Tampa from Orlando, 1 hour by train to Miami.

I'd like an energy drink that also gives me motivation.

Oh, I agree with you - why do people even make suction cup things in the first place?

the way that explorer in windows will randomly change folder views even though i clicked on "apply to all folders" when initially setting it. that has happened since i can remember and still happens in windows 7.

pisses me off to no end.

How about we not turn a thread unnecessarily political? Hmmmm?

Sorry...can't help it. Just think it's utter crap. I'll leave the thread alone now.

That would be awesome. My brother is going to UCF right now and that would make it a ton easier for him to visit home.

Another car related one - my windshield takes far too long to defrost... My rear windows (with those wire things through them) are much more efficient, how about working on invisible heating elements?
