If This Bed's A-Hovering... 
Wednesday, July 5, 2006

...Some rich person's a-lovering? Oh, in our current soul-purging malaise we can do no justice—none at all—to the beauty we see before us. More brilliant machines—this one not at the expense of architects, but rather the result of one's genius. The mellifluously-named Dutch architect Janjaap Ruijssenaars has developed a mag-lev bed, and it's yours for only a million point five or so. Genius! But, as one commenter at the source site has already pointed out, "this is Wolverine's deathbed." No justice.

does every bed come with a free Ando temple/bachelor pad, itself hovering over Laurel Canyon? Also, didnt this scene happen at the end of 2001, the movie not the year?
