letter from dumb dumb,
I am interested in purchasing one of your beautiful origami boulders, but is it possible to order one with a USB port option?
Regards,

Thanks for email.
Boulder only work with Firewire IEEE 1394. | Theo, you say the site's not for real. It certainly is for real. He's got a real Paypal account and he's taking real credit card numbers. I doubt he's going to make millions but I'll betcha he's made a few bucks. I say good for him.

Whether this site is real or not, I think it's great, the guy has a great sense of humour, obvious from the e-mail section.
Love it.

"Q: Is this some kind of a joke?
A: You want joke? Look in mirror, you ugly person! This site real. You order wadded paper origami boulder and see for yourself."
The poor language and attitude... tsk tsk tsk... he's going to be losing customers. |

I'm considering it. Not because his crumpled paper is worth $10, but I think his ingenuity and wit and sense of humor have earned it.
