Violight UV Ultraviolet Cellphone Sanitizer
As you may know by now, I am a bit of a cootie-phobe, and I tend to like all things that kill cooties. With that said, one of the most germy things that we carry around, and really don't think about as germy, is our cellphone. We press our cell phones to our faces, stick […]
Why I Rarely Eat McDonalds
In college I survived on a healthy diet of McDonalds and Taco Bell, basically went to whichever had the best promotions running. I was poor. Now that I am out of college, still poor, I try and avoid McDonalds, to much talk of GMO, weird food processing, and stuff like the video you are about […]
Hair Washing Robot By Panasonic
I remember the good old days of getting my hair, when I had hair, washed at the hair cutters. There was something incredibly relaxing and therapeutic about those hair washes.

I was recently having lunch with a friend […]
Earth Friend Diapers – gDiapers
Why am I writing about diapers? No, I haven't gone crazy, yet. I just babysat for my friends kids over the weekend and they have 2 babies in diapers (don't ask).

The folks that make soles for many other brands of shoes, Vibram, have come out with their own shoe, sorta.
