Root (liquor)

Root- It's like root beer with a kick. Personally, wouldn't drink it straight, but could see how you could. Excellent as a float.

RC Products Beer Pager



Beer Pager- Your beer will be unique in its cozy, but in a crowded room you won't hear this. Good for a single laugh (http://beerpager.com)

Tsubo Phison (mens)


Tsubo Phison- Super comfortable and stylish sneaker. Slick design and easy to wear both casual and at work.

I am the first to admit, I like a nice pair of sneakers. Comfort usually comes before style for me, but every now and then I'll go for something with a little "flare" that will leave me with blisters after a long day of walking around. The Men's Tsubo Phison is a sneaker (or "sport casual" shoe) that doesn't force this compromise. The Phison is one of the most comfortable shoes I've worn, on par with sliding into a pair of slippers.

An added benefit to the Phison is its style. I like to be just a wee bit subversive in the office. The dress code is quite clear on its "no sneaker" rule, so I am always on the look out for a pair of sneakers that are stylish enough to pass as a pair of dress shoes. While the suede toe and rubber sole hint at sneaker, the contoured curves and even the eyelets and laces speak dress shoe.

Admittedly, the split tongue is a bit of an oddity, but you slip these shoes on, and the inch or so of padding your foot experiences makes this little misstep easy to over look.

Veev Acai Spirits


Veev Acai Spirits- Interesting idea and smells pretty good. Doesn't taste great alone, but mixes well. http://veevlife.com/

On its own I thought it tasted a bit like cough syrup. If you're going to give it a whirl, better plan on mixing it (and they've got a ton of recipes on the site).

Wrap-A-Nap

wrap a napTen Word Review
Shockingly utilitarian. Anoints wearer with the superpower of sleeping anywhere.

Full Review
This product needs to come with an illustrated instruction manual, better yet, the person who delivers it should show you how to put it on. Not because it’s complicated--- but because it’s hilarious. When I was first presented with this soft, fleece tube called the Wrap-a-Nap I had no idea what to make of it. With great relish and speed my friend fastened it around his head. I couldn’t stop laughing! He looked like he was enjoying a virtual reality game from the future.
