The Dot Com Bust, in Two Ounce Doses

It took less than a week for a crafty Austinite to capitalize on the destruction of the Intel shell, though we're honestly too dense to figure out whether this is a joke or not: for twenty bucks, you too can own your very own "piece of Austin history" (or, rather, pieces), in the form of a jar of blown-up concrete from the former downtown eyesore.

Please note that the contents may vary. Shipping via USPS to US addresses only. Container holds about 2 ounces of liquid, but you will get solids. Image is for reference purpose only. Shipments will be in 1-2 weeks, hopefully sooner, after payment is received. Not for consumption. Keep away from small children and cute furry animals. The real Intel logo is owned by Intel Corp. This logo is a parody, so was the building shell that stood in Austin for 6 years. This site has absolutely nothing to do with Intel or semiconductors. Lid color subject to change. No animals or politicians were harmed during the bottling process.

Investigate for yourself here.

I kid you not--I kid you not--I kid you not...I had that idea first!

Only a matter of minutes before they get their first cease and decist order!

I bet it's Louis Black.
womp, womp, womp, womp....

When you hold the jar close to your ear you'll hear the muffled voice of Liberty Lunch whimpering, "See, I told you so!"
