Burrito Bomber
Friday, December 14th, 2012Darwin Aerospace has found a more unique use for drone aircraft: the speedy delivery of delicious burritos.

The Winnifred Beach (Sport Utility) Bathrobe
Thursday, December 13th, 2012
Winnifred Beach has created possibly the only bathrobe that’s suitable for safari, or at least looks the part. It features a brushed cotton-twill exterior with a cotton-terry lining, two large side cargo pockets (able to fit an iPad), two chest pockets with Velcro flaps, one waist-high utility pocket (able to fit an iPhone), and one utility pocket on the left arm with Velcro flap. Additional features include: reenforced “shooting jacket” shoulder/chest patches, button epaulettes, cotton-twill belt, and nylon hanging loop. It’s unisex and “singularly sized for everyone” (read: one-size-fits-all), just roll the sleeves to the desired length.

KRU82 Vodka
Wednesday, December 5th, 2012
I stopped by the liquor store today (don’t judge) and noticed these bottles of KRU82 vodka on the shelf. As you can see, they’re metallic, shatterproof bottles with resealable caps and black straps with metal carabiners attached, and they go up to 1.75L in size. If one were so inclined, the container could make a handy emergency survival bottle, provided one had the foresight to bring a bottle of vodka with them while “…hiking, fishing, sailing, skiing or whatever…”
