A surf squirrel is a little radio remote controlled squirrel that you can buy here in the UK. All it is is a dead squirrel with it's innards taken out and a few electronics fitted inside it. The tail is used as a rather nifty aerial and the eyes flash red when the squirrel does a trick. It comes with it's own little surf board so you can take it down to the seaside and impress your mates with your surfing squirrel and all the different tricks it can do like standing on it's head while surfing at 30 miles per hour! Don't get the thing wet though because it starts breeding other little surfing squirrels and soon the sea would be full of little surfing squirrels banging into each other and getting in the way of life boats. You have been warned!

Steve you are CRAZY....

hehe...

i just can't understand why anyone needs more than 2 A500s ??? 1 as a backup.

but nice collection anyway, my gf would go nuts if i told her i'd just won that lot on Ebay!!!

ElectroBlaster · 19 January 2003, 15:09

well look at it this way! you get one a500 yeh and say there is a fire or summin falls on it and it gets broke! what do you do?
race around trying to get another 500... get ripped of on ebay for an old tatty yellowed one... nah you have two or more for spares...

One with kick 2.0, one with 1.2 and some others with 1.3..after that you feel you HAVE to get more for they go for $1!

"One can never have too many Amigas"!!!

ElectroBlaster · 19 January 2003, 22:29

VERY true!

Unknown_K · 19 January 2003, 22:30

21 Amiga's and all a different shade.. myabe he was collecting by color and not model number?

Lynk · 19 January 2003, 22:38

Well ElectroBlaster i've never gotten any of my Amiga's from trashcans or secondhand stores. I just bought them because i had an infinity for the A500 for some reason, well i did anyway.

Not to mention my wife really despises my Amiga's for some reason, that's probably more of the reason i am selling them.

Then at least she won't have anything to complain about.

Lynk · 19 January 2003, 22:41

LOL, very funny Unknown_K

ElectroBlaster · 19 January 2003, 23:24
