JS Objects

This last week I have been horribly sick. The kind of sick you just want to curl up and wake up when they find the cure. But since I still haven't perfected my krojenic chamber, I curled up with the newest version of Virtualbox and let the Ubuntu juices flow.... While Ubuntu did not cure my cold I did come up with some interesting observations.
