Awesome Octopus Book Ends
What you are seeing is not in fact an Octopus who turned to stone and was then cut in half. Although that would be pretty friggin’ rad man. Gnarly even. Maybe tubular. It’s not talk like a skater day? Oh well. *Rotates hat to the proper orientation and chucks skateboard behind me as glass shatters.*

No, this is a pair of Awesome Octopus Bookends. Hang on. I sense your confusion. Same thing happened to me. It’s actually for books that are whole and intact. Not just for the ends of books that have been sawed off for whatever reason. That would be silly. I knew that and didn’t have to google it. They go on the ends of your book pile, see. It’s actually a brilliant idea.

Confession time: Someone once asked me for a pair of bookends so I tore out the last page of War and Peace and Gone With The Wind. Boy did I feel like an idiot.

Anatomia Humani Corporis Renaissance Anatomical Sketchbook
This book is ribbed for your (reading) pleasure. This art journal is called the ‘Anatomia Humani Corporis’, ultimate Renaissance anatomical sketchbook. That’s way too many big words in a row. I’m pretty sure that’s fancy talk for a sketchbook. Also, am I the only one who has the urge to stick a pair of tweezers in that rib cage to try to get the debri out. *BUZZZZZZ* Man, I do not have the hands of a surgeon. That’s okay. If it wasn’t for incompetent doctors we would have no butchers.

This fancy-schmancy leather bound blank book has 520 pages and is awesome for you artist types who like to draw guts and stuff.

Octopus Bedding
I’d like to be, under the sea, in an Octopus’ garden with you. I’m not sure what they grow in their garden, but it sounds cool. Anything sounds cool when you are the Beatles and doing enough drugs. “Paul, me mate! I ave a great idea fer a song. It’s about an Octopus.”

Well, if you want to be all covered in octopus tentacles, check out this cool Octopus bedding. They have a bunch of colors and styles to choose from. Pretty cool. Calamari cool. Yeah, I know calamari is squid and not octopus. Just let me say cool things!

Hail Hydra! I’m out!

Roswell 1947 Bracelet

Roswell 1947 Bracelet
The aliens that crash landed in Roswell New Mexico in 1947 were probably drunk driving. Or texting maybe. Or making sweet love with their fingers like Mr. Spock does. They crashed during a lightning storm. Well, these alien’s misfortune can be your gain. Because you get to own this cool Roswell 1947 Bracelet. The seller says:

The saucer section of this sterling silver bracelet is embedded in a field of many small pieces of metal that have been fused and soldered to the bracelet cuff to simulate earth.

I’m a little bummed at the lack of alien corpses, bongs and beer can debri, but it’s pretty awesome.

The Squatty Potty

By now you’ve probably heard about the Squatty Potty. I’m a few days behind. You might say I got backed up. Heh! That’s a little poop joke to keep things flowing. The Squatty Potty is a stool that helps you get the poop out. Especially if you are a constipated unicorn. Essentially a stool that helps create another stool.

What’s next? A Squatty Bicycle? I can’t wait. Bicycling just relaxes me. Just ask any road cleaning crew. If I can peddle while on the toilet, I’m gonna win the Tour de France with no underpants.

Mr. T say “Don’t be a fool. Use a stool!”
