Arm Wrestling game to kill time

You might be a nerd, but I’m pretty sure there are times where you fantasized on how it feels like to be a jock, with a bevy of beauties cheering you on as you go up against another mate in a serious man-to-man arm wrestling fight just to win date rights with your target in a skirt. Snap out of that fantasy with this replacement - the Arm Wrestling game where the only sweat you’ll break won’t be from your biceps, but from your palm instead as you use your finger to hammer your player’s button as fast as possible. Whoever taps the fastest will be the winner. We all know just how good a man with a dexterous finger is now, don’t we, ladies? The Arm Wrestling game will cost you $24.95, making this a cheap way to settle disputes between two people.

Windows 7 looks like Vista?

Hey guys and gals, here are some screenshots of the latest Windows 7. It looks pretty much the same like Vista. Of course there are updates and upgrades ~ “a return to the Ribbon interface, a simplified start menu, “My Documents” has been replaced to Libraries, fewer User Account Control alerts and a “light” Windows Media Player to name a couple.” Overall, they believe that there aren’t much changes. Isn’t that Vista background?

Little Dog Air Refreshener - nothing says fresh like a dog

Okay who here when they think of fresh air, a dog comes to mind? No one? Well apparently someone decided the two should be combined. The tiny little dog is actually an air freshener to put in your car or rather refreshener as Brando puts it. Just place the bone in the little dog’s mouth and he will make the air smell like sweet candy. Why can’t we shove a bone in a real dog’s mouth and make it smell like candy as opposed to nasty dog breath? To pick up the dog and get rid of that fresh dog scent in your car it will cost you $14 from Brando.

High Heels Phone for fashion lovers and divas alike

Anymore most of us use our cellphone for our phone calls. Actually, I have a land line hooked up because the overall plan for phone, cable and internet is cheaper than getting just internet and cable. However, it tends to ring so often with telemarketers that I just have it unplugged. Plus, everyone calls my cellphone, I’m not sure anyone actually has my home number. For the most part people are either already as bad as I am or are slowly going to be moving towards that. Which makes a pink high heel phone horribly ridiculous and pointless on so many levels.

First of all there’s the pink factor, so disgustingly pink. Then of course there is the fact that it’s a high heal. Most women are going to take one look at it and think it’s far too girly for them. Then again, there is the younger crowd and I’m sure some miniature diva would love having a fashion inspired phone. Right now it’s being sold on Gadget4All, which is known for their overly quirky gadgets. To pick it up it will cost you $22.

Tantrum Throwing Alarm Clock gives you a reason to get up in the morning

Sometimes it is difficult to get up in the morning, and if it wasn’t for my infant son, who cries in the morning at 7:00 A.M, I probably would never get out of bed. It appears that Hammer Schlemmer has found a way to create the technological equivalent of a screaming baby in the morning in the form of an alarm clock.

The Tantrum Throwing Alarm Clock will do exactly what its name entails. All you need to do is set it, and it will begin to tap its arms lightly when it goes off. Apparently, it will be sedated when you pat it on the head, which is the closest thing to a snooze button.

If you give it too many snoozes, the alarm will go into a full tantrum where it will flip open its maw like Mr. Mouth, a classic toy from the seventies. Anger isn’t the only emotion that it feels because if you pet the clock, it will apparently smile and even tap its wrists in appreciation.

Not only is this device do alarms, but it can do some fancy dancing if you connect your MP3 player. The Tantrum Alarm Clock runs on 4 AA batteries, and it has a warning light of flashing red lights in his eyes if the batteries are low. You can also plug in an AC cord if you want to for more power.

You should be able to purchase the Tantrum Alarm Clock for about $49.95 off the Hammacher Schlemmer website.

Encoder Ring lets you hide super secret information

Some of the most entertaining products, are the ones that haven’t made it into production just yet and are merely a concept design. This one may not seem very technology based, after all it is a ring, even if it has unique little dots encoded into it. Well those are dots are more than they initially appear to be. They represent letters within binary code. Which means you can have a ring with a secret message placed within it. Although, as hard as I try I can’t really think of a single thing I’d want to encode onto a ring like this.

It can hold up to 64 characters, so you can get at least a fairly decent sized message. Granted you could go the cheesy route and stick with things like “Forever Yours” but where’s the fun in that. Hopefully if it’s a message meant for your family if anything were to happen to you they’ll be able to find someone to translate what your ring says. Maybe you could open a secret bank account just purely so you’ll have a super important secret message to throw on it. Yes, this isn’t a product you can purchase just yet, but we can hope that eventually it will be. You can check out more on the ring on the creator’s site.
