Brick
2 people recommended this item
Description
Brick qualifies as a puzzle film mainly due to it's unique slang. I first saw Brick at a local film fest and they handed out little dictionaries before it screened.
Beyond that, the film is a pretty terrific neo-noir with mysterious characters and fast-paced scenes.

Witness Protection T-shirt
First to recommend
Description
Check it out! Shaq has been traded to the Cleveland Cavaliers. There's been a lot of talk about what his new nickname will be, but I think it's pretty clear that WITNESS PROTECTION is the winner. The Q is going to be filled with these shirts in a few months.

Can You Beat Ken?
First to recommend
Description
I like reading Ken Jennigs' blog a lot, so I think I would enjoy this game. It is 100 trivia questions (which doesn't sound like very many) that have already been asked of, and answered by, Ken Jennings. (via Ken Jennings)

Description
Sounds like a pretty cool boardgame. I want to add it to my wishlist. You answer trivia questions, and then you wager chips based on whose answer you think is most correct. (via Ken Jennings)

Limited Edition - Automoblox S9R Sports Sedan

Description
I'm a big fan of the Limited Edition Automobloxes. They are pretty similar to the original line, but with some awesome additions: spoilers, side skirts, etc.

Nizor Scissors

Description
These are some super sweet scissors from Culin Home. I love multi-functionality. I love it. The blades of the scissors can separate, creating handy paring knives. Good for just about anything, especially fishing.

Ron Paul Shits Sanity - T Shirt
First to recommend
Description
I really like Ron Paul. If it weren't for the fact that he is a Republican and will never be on the ticket, I would absolutely vote for him. Also, he seems like the sane person in an insane election.

Hillary Sucks (Offensive) T-Shirt
First to recommend
Description
This design says "Hillary sucks, but not like Monica". It's pretty offensive, and not very nice but quite popular. I'm almost tempted to vote Hillary because I love Bill Clinton so much.

Obama Girl T-Shirt
First to recommend
Description
This totally sweet shirt let's everyone know that you've got it bad for Barack Obama. Lots of cool, graphic hearts emanate from the girl at the top and congregate around Barack's distinguished face. My girlfriend loves the Barack attack.
