About this list:

Did you know you can buy this stuff at Amazon.com? Well, you can (for now). Because that's where I found it (I admit to being a bit of an Amazon.com bird dog... I sniff things out and say, "look, a duck"). Enjoy.

Panasonic Lumix DMC-G1 12.1MP Interchangeable Lens Camera

2 people recommended this item

Description

Wow. Cool. Neat. A new kind of cool for SLR-type cameras. Only real camera nerds will likely understand the difference between this and a DSLR, but the long and the short of it is that it's supposed to give DSLR quality in a much smaller package.

I think I'm in love.

Ride the Unicycle - a Crash Course!: Gregg Vivolo

First to recommend

Description

I don't know if this is a good book on riding a unicycle or not, and I don't care! The title alone makes me want the book, even if I never set butt on a uni, calling the book a "crash course" makes me giggle. I like to giggle.

You? You like to giggle too?

Please say yes. We can giggle together.

Tee hee.

A replacement battery almost half the price of the original apple model for my powerbook?

Yeah. I'll buy that.

Potato Gun

4 people recommended this item

Description

Once upon a time I wanted a Potato Gun more than any other thing I knew of, and I had one, but I didn't know it was a Potato Gun until much later. After it was broken. When I examined it, after many years, I realized the true purpose of my spud gun. To shoot potato bits. Though I simply was not aware. And then it was too late.

Now? My son has a Potato Gun. And he knows exactly what it is for. And I shall live vicariously through him.

Added bonus? Also shoots apples.

Philadelphia Chickens: Sandra Boynton, Michael Ford

First to recommend

Description

If you have kids (or know someone who has kids), you have to have the Philadelphia Chickens. Fun songs, funny songs, darn hilarious songs and drawings and great gads of goodness. My favorite song? Cows.

Oh, I can't really describe it here. You just have to get it, okay?

The Last Apprentice: Wrath of the Bloodeye (The Last Apprentice): Joseph Delaney

First to recommend

Description

The Last Apprentice series is really good. Knocks anything Ms. Rowling ever did on it's behind. And this one promises to be no exception. So I'm putting it on my wish list right now. Bloodeye! What fun!

Murder at the Bad Girl's Bar and Grill: A Novel: N. M. Kelby

First to recommend

Description

Another book by another friend. I haven't read it yet, but N.M. Kelby's books are awesome and funny and terrific. And I'd say that even if I didn't know her.

Whirley-Pop Stovetop Popcorn Popper

6 people recommended this item

Description

I just now made some popcorn with this beauty, and it turned out perfectly, just as it does every time. No old maids, no burned edges... just light, fluffy, lovely bowlful of popcorn, again and again and again.

My only complaint about the Whirley-Pop is that it's not exactly simple to get the corn to pour out just so. It tends to be a little awkward. But I'm willing to live with that, so long as the popcorn remains so tremendous.

Mens Black Twilight Blackened Satin Finish Titanium Wedding Band Ring

First to recommend

Description

I wouldn't change my wedding band for the world, but if I had to do it over again, I might choose something a little more along this line.

Not that I think I'll have to do it over again.

Sheesh. Look at me explaining myself. Stupidity is the mother of backpeddling.
