On Sunday, the fourth Testa Rossa evah built went for a frosty sum of 12.1 million dollars.

Dog-o-Matic – Dog Washing Machine
Folks, you can’t make this stuff up… a Frenchman named Romain Jarry, 31, has created a dog washing machine. The Dog-o-matic (that is the real name) is basically a small car wash for dogs… and it isn’t cheap… prices can run up to $47 per dog. The inventor insists the dog-o-matic isn’t cruel… decide […]
A Whole Chicken In A Can
Sweet Sue? How sweet can Sue be? She jammed a whole cooked chicken in a can (minus the giblets). I am squeamish when it comes to meat… and I feel dirtier for having seen the chicken come out of this can. Looks like I will be eating a salad tonight, thanks Gadget King. You think […]
No-Wash Underwear
No-Wash Underwear are the invention of a young medical student, Rob Libfeld, who thought of the idea while dealing with embarrassed patients in the hospital. His ingenious solution was a pair of underwear that’s yellow in the front and brown in the back, meaning stains don’t show. There is however what he calls the "odor […]
Cat Cosmetics – Booty 911 – Yuck
Not much need to write anything here… Catherine Hickland (movie star?) owner and creator of Cat Cosmetics has done it for me. All I can say is… yuck. (Sorry… this isn’t actually a gadget) “No one ever talks about butt zits. Most of us have them! Come on, you know who you are!!!! It’s OK, […]

The noodles come out of a […]
Tape Cassette-To-MP3 Player, Novac MV-CM001U
Not sure why anyone would need a gadget that converts old tape cassettes to MP3 files… but then again I know nothing. The Novac MV-CM001U is a wooden box that converts older style tape cassettes to MP3 with the simple push of a button. I can only find this beast in Japan though…
WTF is a PUMA?!
For years I’ve used the Segway as a sort of a milestone of humanity’s technological accomplishment in building something wickedly stupid, unnecessary and overrated – a remarkable blend of misplaced technological acumen and social ineptitude – a middle finger to common sense and “cool” if you will. Yes I clearly got an itch to scratch […]
Europe pushes greener gadget power
On April 6th, in a shocking move *rolleyes*, the clearly bored out of its freaking mind the European Commission agreed on more “green”regulations, this time for external power cords and supplies, specifically regulating the amount of energy wasted by “excess heat”. Surprisingly the laws of physics governing heat dissipation and inefficiencies associated with it are […]
Hotelicopter is yanking your wank
Bunch of tech sites covering the phenomenon called the Hotelicopter. They are being dead serious about flying friggin hotel inside of an old modded Russian Mil V-12 copter (NATO designation “Homer”). Apparently someone with good Photoshop and mad 3D animation software skills slapped together a “convincing” site complete with an animated concept video and a […]
