Nothing like a product that spells out, literally, exactly what it’s function is. Who would have guessed that those things on either side of the books were actually book ends? These will save you from having to explain what they are to ignorant house guests.

powerdome

According to the product page, the PowerDome is a therapeutic device that changes the phone’s frequency of electromagnetic pollution to take it out of the range that affects our bodies, and so helps restore our natural health and vitality.”

According to “tests,” the “device” helps to maintain balance and order in our bodies and protect us from the possible radiation emanating from our cell phones. It supposedly achieves all of this using “micro-crystal technology, quantum mechanics and scalar technology.” And how much would you expect to pay for what is most likely a 2 cent sticker?…

You keep booting up your system and you get nothing but the blue screen of death. Shutting it down doesn’t seem to be doing the trick, and banging on the computer case has gotten you nowhere, so the Computer Voodoo doll is your last option. Stick a few pins in and hope for the best. Because you know that reloading your OS is going to lose gigabytes of videos that you never found the time to back up.

I may be alone in this, but it will be a cold day in hell before I ever buy a pet of mine a Polo shirt. For those of you that seem to enjoy this kind of thing ( Paris Hilton comes to mind ) this Polo shirt can make your dog like more of a person. It may be the most uncomfortable thing in the world for the poor pet, but at least it will give them some style.

We’re all tired of listening to the duffer that could have shot a great round “if only…”. You know, if only he hadn’t missed eight 2 foot putts, if only he hadn’t dumped a couple into that lake. It goes on and on.

Rather than making a scene by just telling him to get over it, hand him this pacifier. Every baby quiets down when they get their pacifier.

Dumb Handyman''s Tape Measure

If you are a do-it-yourself kind of guy that is a little simple likes to keep things simple, the Dumb Handman’s Tape Measure will be your new best friend.

As you can see, the units of measurement are measured out in actual feet – not numbers. Unfortunately, if my handyman showed up using something like this I would have serious doubts about his craftsmanship.
