Mad Hatter Pill Box Meds or Madness

Description

This is the best and most hilarious pill box that I've ever seen. I can think of a couple of my friends that would revel in the humor of this. They would also make very good use of it as well! I myself, well...I need a bigger one...

Audition

Description

This is my most favorite movie ever. Beautiful cinematography coupled with one of the best directors in Japan, it even scored IFC's top 10 most scary scenes the year it came out.

Not a first date kind of movie though. But perhaps the perfect post breakup movie ever made. (via amazon)

The Ex Knife Holder

Description

Sure, it's the mature thing to be the bigger person in a D-I-V-O-R-C-E. But who says being mature is all that great, anyway? For those of you who think taking the "high road" is a little boring, here is a great gift.

Annals of Gullibility: Why We Get Duped and How to Avoid It: Stephen Greenspan

First to recommend

Description

“Stephen Greenspan has penned the definitive book on why people are gullible. He reveals why so many people are so gullible, the psychology that drives gullible behaviors, and most importantly what we can do about it. Annals of Gullibility belongs on the bookshelves of skeptics and scientists, not to mention politicians and policy analysts, especially before they go to war.”–Michael Shermer, Publisher, Skeptics Magazine (via amazon.com)

Ménage à Trois - Reds

First to recommend

Description

I drank far too much of a delightful red last night. I didn't buy it for the provocative name, but for the very reasonable price ($10) and for the fact that I enjoy red blends.

Menage a Trois from the Folie a Deux Winery is a smooth blend of Cabernet, Merlot and Zinfandel. It's funny --- the label on the front of the bottle says: "Surrender to the seduction of dark, rich berry with a hint of pepper, a lush lingering finish leaving you wishing for more...", and they're right! After my friend and I had killed the bottle, I had no problem asking him to go out and ask pick up another bottle.

I highly recommend this one, with no reservations, but be careful... It's so easy to drink that you will find yourself wanting more...just like the bottle says! (via folieadeux.com)

Well, I could not resist putting these on my anti-Valentine's Day list. If you're going to be eating chocolate on Valentine's Day, it may as well actually do you some good. You may even drop a few pounds. (via enemasupply.com)

Queen Margot (La Reine Margot)

First to recommend

Description

I am not usually a fan of romantic films. This one however, is one of my favorites. Perhaps the historical setting and the unusual amount of bloodletting, fighting and the fact that the romance wasn't treated the sappiest fashion curbed my blood sugar levels.

This film is superbly acted, shot and has the most amazing soundtrack.

Based on a novel by Alexandre Dumas, Queen Margot concerns the events behind infamous Massacre of St. Bartholomew in 16th-century France. Isabelle Adjani plays Margot, betrothed for political reasons to one man (Daniel Auteuil) by her mother (Virna Lisi), while she is, in fact, in love with another (Vincent Pérez). Despite the bond that grows between the reluctant couple, plots are hatching all over the castle against the royals. Adventurous, exciting, erotic, and given strong artistic credibility through its outstanding cast, the film is enthralling and visually sumptuous. Directed by Patrice Chereau, less known outside of France than is the film's producer, Claude Berri (director of Jean de Florette and Manon of the Spring). (via amazon.com)

Memento (2000)

15 people recommended this item

Description

I love how the filmmakers force the viewer to encounter the same problems as the main character. He cannot remember what happened ten minutes ago and the audience has no idea what happened ten minutes ago (timeline-wise). Plus the audience is forced to remember what happened at the beginning of a scene in order to put it together with the end of the next scene they are about to watch.

It creates an effect of serious time confusion, which I guess is what Guy Pearce was dealing with.
