Maestro Dobel Tequila
Tequila is good stuff. I, like many, hated tequila… mainly because I was drinking the crappy stuff in college. In fact… if you have ever gotten sick on tequila (I have) it becomes tough to give it another shot. Soooo with that said… let’s talk about “good” tequila which is very different than “crappy” tequila. […]
Speed Bumps Are For Sissy’s – Speed Walls From China
I guess you can call this a gadget… a speed bump gadget. The Chinese decided that speed bumps were just not enough to slow down traffic on the Jing Zhuang highway…so they built a 2 foot high wall that extends 100 feet long! Looks like people have been using the wall for bumper car action… […]
A Bar Inside A 6000 Year Old Baobab, Unleash The Hippies
First thing first, WTF is a baobab you may ask? A baobab is a tree, a huge friggin tree, that grows real old, older than John McCain old… The one in our story is over 6000 years old! So what do you do with the worlds widest and most famous baobab tree that symbolizes Africa, […]
Olympus Stylus 1050 SW Digital Camera – Waterproof, Shockproof, And Freezeproof
Olympus released a batch of new cameras today… the coolest of which (in my opinion) is the Stylus 1050SW. The new 1050 SW will work in temperatures as low as -10 degrees Celsius. The camera features a newer technology dubbed “tap control” which allows you to tap on the cameras edges to control certain functions. […]

Looks like Tesla and Aptera finally have some competition… although it seems to trump them both… sorta. Fisker Automotive, plans on having this hybrid car available for sale in 2010. The car goes from 0-60 mph in about 5.8 seconds, can run on electric only mode for 50 miles before the gasoline engine/generator even turns […]
Cocktail Chemistry Set… Cool
Very cool cocktail set that looks like a mad scientists lab. I could have used this when I was in college, back then I was using old Taco Bell cups and straws. The kit is available for less than $39 and comes with everything you need (minus the booze) to get the party started. [Source]
New iPhone Has Pictures Of Workers Who Made Them…
Looks like another iPhone came with pictures from the factory in China. These look slightly more intentional. At least the girl is cute… kinda like the girl who sang during the opening ceremonies for the 2008 Beijing Olympics (ha).
Big Toys For Big Brother In UK
Friend of mine send me this pic of some anal retentive British Defense Ministry chap playing with what looks like a hover-copter. Apparently having Mother England covered with static surveillance cameras is not enough – time to upgrade the toys. At first look, this reminds me of one of those crappy remote hover choppers that […]
Portable Field Cooker Stove
I like this one… first time I have laughed out loud today. Not so much that there is a goofy gadget that allows you to strap a portable stove onto a tree… but that the picture they chose to use is that of a man and his sheep. Oh the lonely (hungry) man and his […]
