"Congratulations! You Get To Sit Near Me" Baby Travel Shirt
I am not a big fan of flying, but a crying baby takes a bad situation and makes it worse. However they say that the best defense is a good offense… and in this case I would agree. It would be hard to be angry after reading the kids shirt… it kinda disarms your ability […]
Motorized Spray Bottle – AKA Why We Are Fat
Do we really need this type of gadget? Is it so hard to squeeze the pump on a spray bottle that we need a motorized version? Lazy for the sake of lazy, AKA why Americans are fat. If you disagree with me, as I imagine the manufacturer Cepia may, you can buy the unit online […]
Sobrietol – Reduce Your Blood Alcohol By 56%!
At first read… I was pretty excited about this one… the ability to drink… and then sober up on the quick… but then I read reviews and tests done by news stations and curious individuals.

Looks Super Nerdy – Looks Fun
First thoughts are related to the high level of dorkiness associated with wearing the Ninja gear… then I started wondering the last time I saw Ninja’s with guns. I guess you aren’t supposed to think about this stuff too much. “You can shoot your mates with soft velcro balls and what’s even cooler… they stick […]

Verizon Alltel Merger – If Approved Would Form Largest US Cell Carrier
Not exactly news at this point… Verizon and Alltel want to hop into bed with on another. The merger/acquisition would cost over $28 billion (yes with a “B”) and make the new company the largest US cellular carrier. AT&T will be a bit bummed, as they love saying they are the largest US carrier in […]
Drank – The Anti-Energy Drink
“Drank” the Anti-energy drink (purportedly popular in Houston) is starting to hit the convenience and liquor stores. This carbonated, grape-flavored beverage has melatonin, valerian root, and rose hips… all made to make you sleepy. I for one think this is pure silliness. The publicist for Drank “hears it’s good with vodka”… WTF? That is the […]
Lifesaver – Water Bottle With Built-In Filter
Cool inventions like the Lifesaver water filtration water bottle are making water purification easier. Remember the water purification bike… not so easy. The lifesaver bottle by Michael Pritchard will purify 4,000 to 6,000 liters on a single (replaceable) filter. The filter will eliminate bacteria, viruses, parasites, fungi, and other microbiological waterborne pathogens. “The invention, which […]
Freaky Tattoo’s – Submit Your Own
First of all… I know… I know… this one isn’t really gadget related. With that said I appreciate a good tattoo as much as the next person… in fact I appreciate the bad ones too (they make me laugh). Remember the Spiderman tattoo? The tattoo above is pretty damn freaky, the gun shots look surprisingly […]
