Was there ever a morbidly obese dinosaur? Some how I doubt it, but this plush T-Rex is certainly going to be soft and squeezable. I mean, how is he still hunting at this point? Does he roll over his prey like a bowling ball? With those little arms, it would be impossible to get back on your feet if you didn’t have enough momentum while rolling. I know the T-Rex had small arms, but this dude can’t even sensually rub his nipples.

For some reason the bowling ball is becoming the darling of those producing hand crafted garden decor. There’s something about an old Brunswick that opens up a world of decorative possibilities,whether it’s gluing hundreds of marbles to them in order to create an even bigger ball, or fashioning a giant caterpillar that makes it look like the gumball gods are terrorizing your plants. Whatever the fascination is, you’re probably going to piss off bowling fans.

If you can’t knock over ten little bowling pins with the Earth then maybe you need to find a simpler sport. While bowling alleys are not typically known for cool products, this one would seem to be the exception. You may want to be careful about where they put the finger holes, if they put any of them in the arctic areas you may have a psychological disadvantage when your fingers get cold.

Inspired by “the retro designs of old bowling alleys, diners and tine toys from the 30’s through the 60’s” artist Toby Fraley has designed a line of whimsical robot lamps that are sure to delight and confuse all who gaze upon them. Each design is handmade out of mostly recycled parts so don’t be shocked when you see the price (you are paying a hefty “art” premium). Other designs in the series are pictured after the break.
Nothing says class like a gaudy bowling bag. This nice set of them will be the center of attention on your dining room table as a set of salt and pepper shakers. You may not be able to bowl a perfect game, but at least you can season your steak to taste.

You can remove the types of items Homer would appreciate: bowling pin, donut and pretzel. A nice change when you are tired of removing the adam’s apple and funny bone.

I can’t say that when I lay in bed I wish I had a Giant Stuffed Bowling Pin to keep me company, but far be it from me to inflict my sensibilities on anyone else. If the thought of snuggling up to a 3 foot bowling pin is going to make you sleep better, then be my guest.
That being the case, this woman and her pin do seem to be smiling a bit more than I would expect. It could be because that stuffed bowling pin does have a familiar shape, I just can’t put my finger on it right now.
