Your bathroom is a normal place to find a first aid kit and this one is permanently mounted as a medicine cabinet. Use it as any other medicine cabinet to store your prescriptions and toiletries, though if someone goes to grab this first aid kit in an emergency, not only will they likely not find typical first aid kit gear, they will also take a chunk of the wall with it.

Today Arimaz announced the release of Pingo the Penguin, the first in a series of MyDeskFriend robotic toys. The device allows users to tap into their Facebook accounts and breathe life into their new buddy by giving it a name, a profile, a personality and control over it’s moods and daily life. So, it’s kind of like a social networking Tamagotchi, except Pingo isn’t completely needy and useless. UPDATED: Video and image added.
These sproutlets will do two things for you. First they will allow you to enjoy Chia Pet-style gardening without the depressing grandma edge that came from commercials that had a $4 budget, ran during “Wheel of Fortune” and ended with the phrase “Available at Walgreens, Rite Aid, and other fine stores”. Secondly, you’ll have a fake duck giving you a perpetual look of gratification, as if to thank you for slowly and masterfully harvesting him a head of Vanilla Ice hair…Right On.

Ever since we first laid eyes on the circular saw pizza slicer by Fred&Friends, we were anxiously awaiting the day that we could cut a swath through cheese and crust and emerge a more masculine man. Unfortunately, Fred has run into a little snag—the original title “Pizza Pro 3000″ has already been claimed. So, we need your help to come up with a new title—a better title to get the production line rolling.
Submit your title idea to contests@nerdapproved.com with “Fred’s Contest” in the subject line. If your idea is chosen, you will win a treasure trove of goodies from the Fred&Friends lineup. Time is of the essence though—the last day to enter is Friday, February 13th.
Not all emergency needs are ones that require a trip to the hospital. This Emergency First Aid Kit will scratch that itch that needs to be taken care of. You probably don’t want to hang it on the wall in your kitchen, though. Someone looking for a Band Aid will get more than they bargained for.

With the damage caused by hurricanes Gustav and Ike in the news lately, there is no better time to talk about how important it is to be prepared for a natural disaster. First-aid kits and flashlights are no brainers, but what about a coffee table that doubles as a lifeboat? It seems like a great idea in a flood—except that the “Nautical Dory” doesn’t look like it could handle more than a 50 pound payload.

Babysitting has never been easy. The tools of the trade are entirely different than they used to be. This kit includes a Good Luck Bear modular armored vest, a handy chart for evaluating different ammunition and a first-aid kit stocked with band-aids and tissues featuring the “Sucking Chest Wound Bear” on the front. With any luck you won’t be the one nursing any wounds of your own, at least not life threatening ones. There is no way to get out without a little bit of damage.

A cookbook is not going to appeal to your average male looking to grill outdoors. The book included here is specifically aimed at that market and it also includes two very important additions. Ten meters of tape telling everyone “Man Cooking Do Not Cross!”. And most importantly it also includes a First Aid Kit. If you put an inexperienced man on a grill, there is bound to be some gauze needed.

If you thought you have seen it all, get a load of these Multicultural Anatomically Correct Dolls. Being anatomically correct is a little odd on it’s own, but the mother dolls in these sets have taken things a bit further than I am comfortable with. First, they are birth dolls. The picture makes that pretty clear. They can also demonstrate breast feeding. It would seem like trying to use these as educational aids for your kids will either result in laughter or a some kind of mental defect.

When I first laid eyes on the Fo’ Shizzle Doormat, my mind was abuzz with ways I could make fun of it in a post on Nerd Approved. However, I think the product description really puts everything in perspective:
“EXCLUSIVE! Yo, G!. Why not add some mad style with this super fly doormat, boo? Clean up your slanguage and muddy shoes all at once, thanks to our extra-rugged olefin mat, a fo’ shizzle (“sure-fire” to those hip to the jive) hit with every visitor.“
Seriously, it was embarrassing just to read that. On the other hand, if Jamie Kennedy is reading this, I found the perfect doormat for you.
You can pick up the Fo’ Shizzle Doormat from What on Earth for $19.95.
