Awesome Inventions

POSTED BY: Liz Jenkins
CATEGORIES: Misc

Now that we are in the month of the iPad, it got me curious about other unique inventions that have caused some excitement in the past. These ideas may seem a bit odd, but I'm sure some of the inventors made a good chunk of change from them. People will buy anything...

Less is More

POSTED BY: Liz Jenkins
CATEGORIES: Artists & Galleries

This collection of alternate tv and movie posters proves that some designs don't require a lot of fluff to get a message across. Some of the images take a little more thought than others, but they are all pretty clever.

Calling myself an "MJ Superfan" doesn't even begin to describe how much I love Michael Jackson. Losing him this week has been awful. Time magazine put together a collection of memorable MJ moments (good and bad). He will be greatly missed.

SNACK ATTACK!

POSTED BY: Liz Jenkins
CATEGORIES:

Lately, it seems like all we talk about in the office is how addicting some snacks are. So naturally, when I'm not talking about food, I look it up on the internet. Not only did this blog remind me of all my favorite childhood snacks... it just made me hungry all over again. Awesome.

With the new Watchmen movie coming out, I have to admit that I'm just as excited as every other comic book geek. This site called RetroCrush put together a list of the top 20 coolest super hero costumes. My only criticism... why is Wolverine only No. 13?

The images in National Geographic pretty much speak for themselves. On this particular page of their website, a dozen new photos are posted every week to showcase beautiful images submitted by non-National Geo photographers. Check out the first batch for 2009.

Central Coast Barbie

POSTED BY: Liz Jenkins
CATEGORIES:

I never know if these websites are "old news" or not - but I thought this one was pretty funny. Even though the site itself is lame, I think people in this Central Coast area might get a laugh out of it. Lompoc Barbie? Who comes from Lompoc these days anyway? Guilty.

Pet Lovers Go Too Far

POSTED BY: Liz Jenkins
CATEGORIES:

The pet-Halloween costume industry has become larger than I thought. It's one thing to put a funny hat on your dog during Halloween and show him off to the neighborhood - but it is completely ridiculous to put your cat through this same Halloween torture. Just look at how pissed off all these cats are. We need to take a stand and put an end to cat costumes.

Something for Everyone

POSTED BY: Liz Jenkins
CATEGORIES:

This probably won't be a new site to many people but it was a first time visit for me. The t-shirts at Busted Tees are pretty clever. I'm a big fan of all the lame TV references, like the "Chubbies" t-shirt from Boy Meets World. I know I'm not the only one that loved that show!
