This doesn’t fall within the normal realm of geekdom I usually write about, but since, I’m a music geek, it fits. I just watched a video of a high school boy ask his date to the prom. No big deal, right? Well, he got three of his friends to dress in tuxedos like himself and [...]
For an encore to yesterday’s bathroom mirror TV, comes a more practical bathroom gadget from PCWorld. This little guy is called a smart faucet. It uses facial recognition to adjust the water temperature and flow to your specific settings. There’s also a touch screen that allows you to access email, weather and other stuff. I [...]
It seems that no part of human life is out of the reach of technological advances. PCWorld listed a number of technological advances for the most private of sanctuaries in one’s home; the bathroom. In particular, this one caught my eye. I love watching TV as much as the next person, but how long are [...]

I’ve heard fo caffeine being able to give you an extra boost for the day, but I didn’t think it could do the same for a car. This white, 1988 Volkswagen has been altered to run on coffee grounds. So, in the future when we drive to a Starbucks, there’ll be a pump for every type of [...]
I found this story on MSNBC. Inspired by our fascination with UFOs, someone with a little too much time on their hand made this cake in the form of an extra-terrestrial. The details of how they made it I could not find, but the fact that the party participants tore into this little guy like [...]
One day when I was a kid, I was playing in my room with some building blocks, making towers for my baby brother to see and letting him knock them down. Because I had carpet on my floor, and I was making the tower real tall, I placed some books on the floor to provide [...]
Fox news took a page from Conan O’Brien (you don’t think they’re courting him too much, do you?). They took celebrity photos and mashed them with politicians, with some comic results. The one that got me the most was the James Bond image. While this one doesn’t use a politician, they took several actors who [...]
This is for all the car fans and eco-friendly fans. Porsche has just unveiled a hybrid vehicle. So not only can you feel the wind whipping at your hair as you tear down the interstate, you’ll be doing a favor for the evironment as you do so. I hope these things don’t cost an S&P [...]
