Geek offers broken stair from Apple Store on eBay

Posted in Apple by Shane McGlaun on February 22nd, 2010

I think Forest’s mom was right when she said stupid is as stupid does. It’s pretty stupid to abscond with a 250-pound glass stair from the fancy staircase in the flagship Apple Store on 5th Ave in NYC. How exactly you would get it out of the store is an interesting question.

An auction over on eBay has said stair for sale by the guy who admits to nabbing it before the Apple workers could throw it away. The guy says it was cracked when a bottle was dropped on it and replaced. Said stairs allegedly cost $10,000 each.

Guy builds a First-Class Pan Am Cabin in his garageAnthony Toth really likes Pan Am. He likes it so much that he built a vintage Pan Am first-class cabin in his garage. It looks awesome and the setup includes almost everything fliers in the late 1970s and 1980s would have found onboard.

You’ve got your red-and-blue reclining seats, original overhead luggage bins and even a curved, red-carpeted staircase. Anthony is a 42-year-old global sales director at United Airlines and he spent more than 20 of those years on his recreation of a Pan Am cabin, which includes a few economy-class seats.

New PSP to be a slider?

Posted in PSP by Conner Flynn on February 23rd, 2009

New PSP to be a slider?What are the odds? There’s a rumor floating around on the internet. And it involves the PSP. That’s never happened before… Sarcasm aside, this latest rumor predicts an actual lustworthy design that includes a sliding screen and yet no new hardware inside.

If true, that means it’ll have the exact same internal guts as your current model, it will just be more cellphone-like. On one hand, i’d be glad they upped the design and payed attention to various fan renders like the one above, but what good does that do you if the innards don’t match?

Posted in Kitchen by Conner Flynn on February 4th, 2009

Pizza Pro 3000 Circular Saw is the manly way to slice pizzaSince the very dawn of pizza, when it’s mighty cooked aroma filled the air for the first time, the pizza cutter hasn’t changed much. But now some genius, and I’m not being sarcastic, has come up with the ultimate pizza cutting tool.

It’s the manliest, most hardcore pizza cutter ever. And though it won’t rev up like a real saw and cut both your pizza and the counter-top beneath, you will find yourself mimicking the powerful sound of the saw as you slice and dice and accidentally cut it into a million pieces due to fun overload.

The Victor Multi-Kill: Like sending mice to the electric chair

Posted in Home by Conner Flynn on November 3rd, 2008

The Victor Multi-Kill: Like sending mice to the electric chairThere are plenty of options when it comes to getting rid of mice. There’s the old mousetrap that in all likelihood will snap back on your finger and have you hopping around in pain. There are glues,baits,traps and varmint catchers of every kind. But when you absolutely need to exterminate these little guys with extreme prejudice, there’s this thing. The Victor Multi-Kill trap.

Looks like some modded lunchbox, but what’s inside isn’t your lunch. The Victor uses a high-voltage shock to murder any mouse in its path cold dead in just 3 seconds, then it dumps the carcass into the collection box for disposal. So, it’s kinda like a mouse-mob hit. Quick and behind closed doors. They claim it’s effective enough to get rid of all your mice in a single night. You might thnk this is inhumane, but if they really do die in 3 seconds, there’s very little suffering compared to other traps.

Photon Light Boards take skating back to the future

Photon Light Boards make skating futuristic
If I were a skater I would do all of my skating at night using the Photon Light Board. I would turn a 360 pivot into an ollie while people would swear up and down that they saw a bright neon UFO descend down that staircase.

With the Photon Light Board, I could do it too. Since all the boards have such highly customizable lighting patterns and many colors to choose from. It would be like doing tricks on a Lite-Brite. But I’d probably break my neck doing a rad stunt… So it’s probably best if I let that dream die. But you don’t have to. You can ring your board with LEDs, add drop lighting, or even skateboard headlights. Each Photon Light Board has about 30 lights.
