Global Warming Coffee Mug

After you see Al Gore’s global warming film, An Inconvenient Truth, I’m sure you’ll want to grab this Global Warming Coffee Mug.

As you sip your morning coffee, or in my case morning rum with a bit of coffee, you can watch the earth change from normal to the earth covered in water through the effects of global warming.  That’s how I love to start my day, fantasizing about the gloomy inevitabilities of modern day life.  Cost, $15.

What better way to show your appreciation for being invited to your pal’s wedding than to hit them with the Confetti Cannon?

June 14, 2006 | Posted by Allison as Furniture, Just for Fun at 12:31 pm | (6) Comments »

Using water jet technology & carbon fiber, the RFX 10.9 Royal Flush Station is the lightest Royal Flush toilet in the universe.  Why would you need the lightest Royal Flush toilet in the universe?  Why for many reasons- high speed patrol boats, racing enthusiasts & just for you folks that have everything & still want more.

Weighing in at a mere 10.9 pounds, this toilet is sure to be unnoticed wherever it may go or wherever you may go.  I can’t help but blush a little while posting a toilet, there’s way too many tasteless jokes I would love to drop in & flush out.  Cost for the lightest Royal Flush toilet in the world, $1000.  Cost for my tasteless humor, absolutely free.

Face Recognition Technology Reveals Which Celebrity You Look Like

May 23, 2006 | Posted by Allison as Just for Fun at 10:04 am | (1) Comment »

Do you have some free time on your hands & want to learn more about face recognition technology & which celebrity you resemble?  Well, then head on over to My Heritage and check out if you’re a Reese Witherspoon or a Jack Black.

My Heritage uses Face Recognition Technology algorithms to match your face with a celebrity that looks most like you.  It takes a few seconds & a close-up photo of yourself, and it is surprisingly addictive.

I have now uploaded five photographs of myself and I keep getting back that I’m a 72% Queen Rania & a 64% Mischa Barton.  Apparently if I was a gentleman, I would be bad boy Irishman Colin Farrell.  Well, at least I wouldn’t be K-Fed.
