There may come a time when a young Count who is in disguise as a poor student that’s trying to serenade a rich girl who’s being kept from him by a doctor that’s planning to marry her himself will come to you for aid. And certainly, your plan to have that young Count disguised as a poor student also dress up as a soldier and pretend to be drunk in order to gain entrance to the house is an excellent one. But what happens if the plan falls through and the young Count is arrested by the watch? Well, if you’ve got a Wahl Comb n’ Cut Grooming Kit, there’s no need to worry.

While your friend the Count negotiates his way out of the hands of his own men, you’ll be preparing the Comb N’ Cut Clippers. The Whal system means that if you can comb hair, you can cut it! You’ll load everything up into your Durable Storage Case and head over to the house of the doctor, where you’ll be asked to do the doctor’s hair so as not to leave his ward, whom you will recall is the rich girl, and the Count, whom you will find is now disguised as a young man that is additionally disguised as a music teacher, alone. With the included S Comb, Barber Comb, Barber’s Cape and Scissors, you’ll be able to stall until your friend, the Count, and the young girl are able to marry against the wishes of the doctor. But surely he’ll be so pleased by his haircut that he’ll never think of protesting the whole affair!

So when the happy lovers are off raising a family of chipmunks, you’ll be lying with the gypsies who live just outside of town, enjoying the fruits of your labors, which is what happens when you have a Count in your debt. It’ll all be thanks to the Wahl Comb n’ Cut Grooming Kit. Imagine, once you’re rich, you’ll have plenty of time to practice your Magic Flute!

Because right here, we’ve got a strangely additicing little device that will play their little drums to a little beat. Not world changing, but fun. And if you have more than one, they’ll start to communicate and synchronize on the beat. You can even stack them. Why? Who would think of stacking drummers? But that’s what someone did, and you know what? It works.

But then the company got all clever and tried to use W as a vowel. And someone else said “Hey! Hip hop is dope and fly! And Hippies are ironically different!” And so instead of a clever name that could have been turned into a cartoon with a toy line that sold up front and then allowed the backstock to get liquidated a decade later when the nostalgic hit, the Bluw Hip Hop Hippies had to turn to us.

Let that be a lesson to any of you who want to start a company. It’s all about the branding.

“Good morning. I’m Detective Smith of the LAPD. Do you know why we’ve brought you here?”

“UH! I PITY THE FOOL WHO TRIES TO MAKE ME RAT ON HIS FRIENDS!”

“Okay, well, that’s not really why I’m here. We know basically everything about CHOP. We know that you were a former unit in Vietnam under a man named Morphy Richards. We know that you have a heavy-duty die cast body-”

“UH! DON’T YOU TALK ABOUT MY MAMA!”

“I AIN’T GETTIN’ ON NO PLANE!”

“No, no, a plane… okay, let’s say from any location then. All I need from you is to tell me how to attach the dough blade. That’s it.”

“I AIN’T NO RAT, FOOL!”

“How is that ratting? I just want to make some jalapeno cheese bread.”

“I PITY THE FOOL WHO DON’T HAVE MILK!”

“Oh, right, thanks. But can’t you just help me out?”

“GOOD COP BAD COP. UH. I PITY YOU, FOOL.”

“Okay. But you’re not leaving until I get what I want. Maybe I’ll just leave you in here to think about that.”

“UH. IN TEN MINUTES I’LL MAKE A TANK OUTTA THAT NOTEBOOK.”

Thinking back now, it’s like we were all kids in high school. “Yeah, and one day, we’re gonna have a radio that also connects to our computer so we can stream music! And it’ll also let us make phone calls!” We had all those dreams about how everything would be wired up and connected. Looking back on it now, it’s kinda funny.

But seeing the Philips Micro Hi-Fi System with Bluetooth, CD, SD, USB & iPod Dock, it’s like going back home and running into an old friend. “Hey, you know that thing we always talked about? Well, I made it!” And of course, you’ve got to look. And, what do you know, you’re staring at a radio that has built-in Bluetooth, allowing for your phone or computer to connect without a cord. And there’s a CD player, and a USB slot, and a SD/MMC slot, plus the ability to rip MP3s and play AM and FM radio.

And it really makes you wonder. Maybe, instead of going off and playing grown-up, we should have followed those crazy dreams.

First of all, we think Razer doest protest too much. What’s with all the hyperaggressive macho product naming? It’s kind of strange. It makes us feel like they’re compensating for something. Maybe deep inside, everyone on the Razer development team is a frightened little boy, and these product names provide a front behind which they can hide.

Be that as it may. Even stranger to us is the careless metaphor-mixing. “Razer Mako?” What?

If your company’s called “Razer,” then you should name your bad-ass 2.1 gaming speaker system the “Scimitar” or “Cold Steel” or like that. But if you want to name the speakers “Mako,” your company has to be called something like “Predator” or maybe “Reef.” Because we can easily think of this speaker set as being razor-like in its keen precision. Or we can think of it as being shark-like, in its power and terrible fury or whatever. But it’s just confusing to try to think of it as being both razor-like and shark-like at once. Because in fact, it is neither a razor nor a shark; it’s a speaker system. Get it together, Razer.
