I'm going to have to recalibrate the engraver pack on my render engine, otherwise the fur is going to look terrible.

I'm with you on most of those, but steampunk fleshlight? OMG, sooooo good!

Um, California DID get such a makeover. It's called "The Wild Wild West."

Make it Iowa, instead. =};-3

Redundant... we still use steam here. :)

At least a Starbucks would have additional use for all of the hot water.

A challenge!

Steampunk + Starbucks (http://www.steampunklab.com/misc/Coffee-Maker/75)

Steampunk + Apple Newton (okay, not QUITE! But seriously... a NEWTON?!?)

Steampunk + Cat (http://gizmodo.com/357597/steampunk-taxidermy-takes-steampunk-to-awkward-places) = Clockwork pussy (http://www.flickr.com/photos/citrustreedesigns/2339403484/)

Steampunk + Yogurt (http://www.pioneerthinking.com/aicr_fishyogurt.html)

Steampunk + Dan Rather = Dan Rather

Steampunk + Fleshlight (http://gizmodo.com/377560/steampunk-masturbation-device-invented-by-internet-anal+retentive-nerd-guru-merlin-mann)

Steampunk + Punk Rock (http://deathbyprotools.com/2007/11/steampunk-rock-and-roll.html)

Steampunk + Firefox (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypercard)

Steampunk + "Puttin' on the Ritz" = ...I got nothing here...

Steampunk + California = .... actually this would like a bad filk song in the making, sung to the tune of "Hotel California"
