New ways to pollute the sea: sQuba underwater car

Saturday, February 16th, 2008

The Swiss have made a gorgeous car that allows you to fly across the land and dive into the sea. Don’t believe me, watch the video:

It goes 77 miles per hour on land and a whopping 1.8 miles per hour underwater. It cracks me up that the car is a convertible. I bet that wouldn’t be an ideal Sunday drive for most people. I am surprised to find that it will be cheaper than  Rolls Royce. I mean, you can roll a Royce into water and drive across a lake.

Ipod in your Fireplace

Tuesday, April 3rd, 2007

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at PhotobucketPlease, tell me they are kidding. Please, tell me that this was a leftover joke from April Fool’s Day. You can now get your own iPod ready Fireplace with garish speakers sticking out of the front. I mean, really. Do you have to incorporate iPods into every.little.thing? It’s getting a bit on the side of freakish obsession.

I first got wind of this from Gizmodo. The FRP-4300 fireplace comes in pieces so you can customize the look. There are also different colors and styles. I am in shock. There isn’t a price listed, but I bet it’s a pretty penny.
