Rubenerd Show 135 (Mon 24/Jul/2006)

One of them pointless episodes!

An Extreme Redundancy Report (DVD Audio ripper software), pointless slogans on road billboards in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia (Ace Hardware, Timberland, Police Boots, Excedy, Pensonic), and a Rubenerd Forum syncronicity that happened on a forum: the Rubenerd Forum.
