hi adam,
I am wondering if I can use these photos to publish in a student newspaper? Or are they copyrighted somewhere? If there's any way you can get back to me tonight (Wed 3/19)/, please please do!

The possibilities are endless! Make it like a hot/cold thermos with separated bins, and a built in straw, dishwasher safe. Can be huge, as long as the bottom fits into the average sized cupholder in a vehicle. There must be a sturdy handle for true one handed comfort. Snap on holders can always be purchased separately. Maybe KFC will give you a free drink refill if you buy the container from them and pay for a ______ refill? Or better yet, the movie theater could sell it for $100 with free popcorn for a week!

I'm imagining strolling on the boardwalk, walking around the state fair. Heck, I could hold it with one hand on the roller coaster, while the other is covering my screaming mouth!

@LunaPierCook: You better patent that idea now.

@SpiffySpiff: It's a 32-ounce cup. Last few times I've rented cars, the cupholders held 32-ounce cups with no problem. It's almost the standard size these days. A 64-ounce cup, though, then we'd have probs.

"These would be perfect for the movie theater. Except that little bucket wouldn't hold enough popcorn."

@Adam: You're just not thinking outside the box. I can see it now ... an outer cup the size of a chicken bucket. Inside, 64 oz of overly-sugared diuretic, with a bin lid holding a fairly substantial amount of faux butter, sodium granules and maybe some popped corn ... Taking it another step, one could actually subdivide this extra-large cup either with glued waxpaper separators or, better yet, three pie-shaped bins for three individual flavors of the diuretic in one cup. The bin could also be subdivided, with popcorn in a large bin, Junior Mints in a small bin ... With such a large outer cup the possibilities become endless. I'm thinking a pair of coney dogs with a side of fries, all in their own shaped spaces, with small bins for ketchup and mustard ... oh yeah, this is indeed cool.

i've died and gone to heaven. i like how the person taking the video is cracking up during the whole thing, b/c i would be floored.

Best... Post... Ever.
