I'm a big tea drinker, so I though this was cute, it's called tpod:

add a little fun to tea.

first you take the tea bag out of the box. than unfold it...it becomes a little boat. than put it into the cup with hot water and let it swim around until the tea is ready.

...everytime you hit the snooze button, the SnūzNLūz will donate a specified amount of your real money to a non-profit you hate. The problem of sleeping in is solved.

Just plug your SnūzNLūz in and either connect it to your network via the RJ45 jack on the back, or via WiFi (WPA supported) if available. Then simply configure via the embedded web browser configuration utility. From here it's a snap. Simply select your online banking institution from the list of supported banks (currently over 1600 are supported). Supply your login information and then select your favorite HATED charity or non-profit from the included lists (over 6200 currently supported). Then plug in your donation amount per snooze incident ($10 or more), set the time, and alarm, and voila, instant time profit!

Common Usage Suggestions!
Are you a butcher? Set your SnūzNLūz to donate to PETA
Are you a republican? Set your SnūzNLūz to donate to the ACLU!
Are you a land developer? Set your SnūzNLūz to donate to the Wilderness Society!
Enjoy your freedom? (Blue state version) Set your SnūzNLūz to donate to the GOP. or
Enjoy your freedom? (Red state version) Set your SnūzNLūz to donate to MoveOn.Org
Are you a hippie? Set your SnūzNLūz to donate to the American Coal Foundation.

That SnuzNLuz thing is just cruel. But how effective it must be!

LMAO at that snooze alarm clock.

The tea boat is pretty cool though.

Someone talked about Nubrella earlier in this thread so I thought I should post some pictures for anyone who is curious about it. I recently saw it in a magazine and I think it seems very confortable, cause it leaves your hands free. I've always had a problem with umbrelllas because I'm always carrying material and books. But I guess this won't catch on cause the design is too flamboyant. Anyone in the big cities has seen one of these?

^ No, can't say I've ever seen one in person, but I'm definitely intrigued by the design, mainly because it'd protect my hair from the rain without me having to hold an umbrella. I have to say, however, that my first reaction upon seeing that photograph was the slight resemblance to Emilio Pucci for Braniff's "space helmet" in the 1960s:

What is this space helmet thingy?
