Not quite as good as the Harry Potter vibrating broom, but still funny.

It sounds stupid, but there are a lot of people who have a lot of time to kill in parked cars.

My sig is 1 pixel too big.

That's exactly how I wrote several of my novels. Wife and I take loooong road trips (14000 miles through Canada this summer). She hauls out the cameras and takes nature shots, while I prop my laptop on the steering wheel and write. Works for us.

This desk can also be used for cutting coke on the go.

I was thinking a nice, mobile cheese board. But that works, too.

Hire women prostitutes - they lack an adam's apple and thus don't have the space issue.

Today at work I was reading through some customer feedback... one complaint was that the owner couldn't find a good flat area for his laptop near the driver's seat.

Sigh.

Typing on a laptop while driving would have to be as dangerous as texting on a phone while driving.

Have they not made texting while driving illegal yet?

In some states, texting while driving is illegal, but only a few.

Perhaps i'm showing my age too, but I would much prefer a nice selection of cheeses to a long line of cocaine.

It would also be a perfect place to rest one's bottle of Grey Poupon.
