Interesting "Toys"

Couldn't leave this one out...

Well, haven't you always wanted a tiny plush ninja?

Apparently 1 out of every 32 children despises Winney the Pooh and prefers toys that make them suicidal.

Shocking Autopsy:
Pulling out body parts is just too gruesome -- how about pulling out murder weapons instead!
And if getting startled by a buzzer when you miss just isn't punishment enough, why not send a jolt of electricity up your arm as well.


Happy Chrismukkah.

This could entertain me for hours.

I think I know that lady...

Mastered golfing? How about challenging yourself with some camoflauge golf balls!

Uh...yeah. I'm guessing it's something from a Disney movie...
If you push a button in back, the "mouth" opens.

Tired of your child playing nicely? Get them the AVENGING UNICORN with not 1, but 3 characters to impale! Not recommended for children under 3 months.

Mr. Bacon and Monsieur Tofu. What could be more fun than a plastic block of angry French tofu?
Aparently Japan wants to make sure every 2-year old knows how to filet a fish properly.

"Mommy! Mommy! I found a kitty on the side of the road that looks just like my toy! Can I keep 'im? Pweeeese!?"

Finally, a toy for the child that wants to wear a hazmat suit when they grow up.

Real nunchucks are too dangerous. Parents should definitely buy these instead.

The nun on the far left seems to be enjoying herself.

At last! No more having to cut off Barbie's head for historical fun -- now you can get your very own Marie Antoinette action figure, complete with a head that flies off!

That's all for now...
If you come across anything else that belongs in this wonderful collection, please send it to me!

Nerd Camping

Go to Steve's Blog for an alternate version, but here's the REAL story.

Joe and I were mall-walking, when suddenly my toes froze and started falling off. I couldn't walk any further, so we had to stay where we were -- in front of Office Depot.

Luckily, we had all this stuff with us:

So began the Nerd Camping.

We ate wholesome food (There's a picture of corn on the back! It has to be good for you!) and did math exercises for fun!

Yes, that is a computer and 22" monitor in a tent. No, those aren't cheetos.

Steve Dawg Son Boi, a famous rap star, walked by for no apparent reason, saw how much fun we were having, and crashed the party.

A bum came along looking for cans in the shopping carts. We asked him to join us.

Steve Dawg Son Boi gave us some entertainment.

Steve Dawg Son Boi wouldn't stop entertaining us, despite being kindly asked not to.

10 hours in, the nerd party was still going. Tyler played a game called "Memorize the IPs" while I played Air-COD4.

Joe played the "Visualize the Algorithms" game.

Around 4:30, we looked outside our tent to find a huge line. The brilliant mob was lining up across the drive-lane rather than wrapping around the building on the sidewalk.

The line turned out to be for Best Buy (visible in the distance), where Steve Dawg Son Boi was scheduled to have a concert. We were under the Office Depot awning seen in the foreground.

Eventually Office Depot opened and we went in for no reason. The guy in the black baseball hat was upset to find out he was in the wrong place to hear the Steve Dawg Son Boi concert.

An hour later we somehow walked out with laptops.

Like we said last year... Never again.

I dun gotted my trumpet back from Tennessee. They dun cleened it up right nice, and fer cheep too!
It be so SHINY!

Here dun be a clip of me playin.
