Martinique 13oz Glassware

I know that it's unfashionable and un-chic to shop at Walmart, but they've actually got some pretty good prices on some pretty groovy stuff. For example, a set of four of these glasses to my left will only cost you$12.88.

Plus, if you order it online, you don't even have to go into the store. Kinda cool, eh?

The Fountainhead by Ayn Rand

To paraphrase Robin Williams from Dead Poets' Society, if you are tired of being an intellectual weakling, that is, you're tired of going to the beach and getting copies of Byron kicked in your face, you should consider sitting down with this classic American novel that tells the story of an idealistic young architect who just won't compromise.

This is one of my favorite books.

Mossimo® Rectangle Chronograph Watch - Black

Over at Target.com, there are a variety of nice watches for those of us who just don't have the green to lay down a couple grand for a Rolex. Take this little beauty over to the left: for $19.99 plus shipping, you can get this little guy.

Also, and I could be wrong here, but I suspect that this watch tells time just as well as a Rolex. Call me crazy, but I believe that that's the case.

WMF Glass Duck Decanter with Stand

If you are anything like me, there was almost certainly a time when you would enjoy a glass or two (or seven) of wine. However, now that we're grown up, we refer to alcoholism as social drinking.

With the social aspect being emphasized, you will be sure to impress with any one of the decanters being offered over at Beverage Factory.

Business Cards for the Cool

Hugh Macleod, of gapingvoid.com, has done something that's kind of fun. Mostly for himself, he draws little cartoons on the backs of business cards. And, if you'll send him a little money, he'll send you a shipment of your business cards with his cartoons on the backs.

These cards are definitely less boring than the average business card, and perhaps their clever genius will even earn you a customer.

Compaq Presario 430 Notebook

My girlfriend is in the market for a new computer as both her desktop and her lapton are, well, dead. Price is a concern, but she still wants something pretty sweet.

Consider this Compaq notebook. Over at Best Buy right now, these computers are selling for only $469.99.

It comes with Vista, which I imagine would be both a blessing and a curse, but it's pretty standard on all the other essentials. Shoot, maybe I need a new one too.

Going Postal by Stephan Jaramillo

Stephan Jaramillo's first novel from several years ago is a gem of a book. Oftentimes funny and oftentimes pensive, it explores what it means to have a college degree and yet only finding yourself able to get minimum wage jobs.

Does that sound familiar? Check it out.

If you are looking for a new pair of stylish dress shoes, consider easing on down the road to Macy's. These handsome shoes, though once retailing for $110, are now marked down to $54.99, which, for those of you who aren't mathematicians, is over 50% off.

Bad Grammar Makes Me [Sic] T-Shirt

I love a clever t-shirt, and One Horse Shy makes them just about as clever as they come. Consider the t-shirt over to the left. If you don't get it, you're probably not a grammarian, but that's no reason to let your friends know that. When they ask what it means, just nod, quietly, and change the subject.

Apathy and Other Small Victories

If you find yourself wishing for a novel that will make you laugh out loud based on the writer's sarcasm and non-sequiters, your wish has finally been granted.

Paul Neilan has created a volatile world where just getting your teeth cleaned can lead to both dirty conversations in sign language and the suspicion of murder.

Check out this book at your first opportunity. You'll be glad that you did.

Puma - El Rey

The Puma El Reys harken back to a time when slip-ons were the best way to go in shoes. Sure we couldn't tie the laces, but that was the beauty; the company was meeting us where we were.

Now, Puma is going back to basic with this line of slip-ons. And, with them currently being on sale for $40 for a pair, well, it's going to be difficult to pass these guys up.

Check them out at the Puma Store.
