Got an interview with Nintendo? Maybe you’ve got a hot date with a video game legend, or perhaps you merely work in the computer world and wish to honor it’s humble beginnings with the 8-bit tie from ThinkGeek. 
This Pixelated microfiber neck feature has a silk-like feel with super geek sex appeal.  In order to maintain the block like effect at the knot, the tie utilizes the clip-on feature you used for Christmas Mass as a child.  But don’t worry, if you’re wearing this tie the last thing you need to worry about is the clip-on element making you look like a dork.

Once again, Jumpin Banana brings us the best of Paladone products with a new twist on the Hot Potato game we used to love as children.  With random shocks of electricity this ball reminds me of the collar I bought for my girlfriend.

You might think this is dangerous toy because it looks like a super grenade designed to stop the terminator, but I assure you, it will not stop the terminator; I tried and now Sarah Conner is dead.

Looking for a new drinking game?  When powered on with it’s special key, the shocking ball emits random bursts of electricity while it lights up.  This stimulating sphere is great for all ages and makes a perfect bath time toy for those little brats you babysit.

* Actually, the Shocking Ball is not recommended for children under the age of 14 or individuals with animatronic hands.

The Taylor 916ce Grand Symphony Acoustic Electric Cutaway Guitar is so freakin sick it should come with a warning from the Attorney General.  Handcrafted by God himself, everything about this guitar is superior; from the rarest high-grade Indian Rosewood, to the hand selected Sitka spruce tops and the iridescent pearl and abalone rosette inlays.  If I was a dying child, my one and only make-a-wish would be to touch this guitar.

The Grand Symphony produces a deeper bass than most Taylor made guitars, but still maintains that full mid with a crisp balanced high end that you’ve come to expect from Taylor.  Of course the guitar wouldn’t be complete without Taylor’s Expression System Pickup which was designed to faithfully reproduce the guitars native tone.  This instrument was made for people that know their guitar.

It’s not wise to tease an addict; I learned the hard way when my pet wolverine was addicted to heroine.  It’s like setting up a buffet in Ethiopia and saying “No Eating”, you just don’t do it. 
I suppose the ashtray could be a courtesy for those smokers who have lit-up prior to realizing that smoking is not tolerated wherever it is the ashtray is placed; but really it’s just saying, “ha ha you dirty disgusting smoker, I bet you want a filthy butt in your mouth but you can’t because I loath you and want you to suffer”.  The Ashtray from SuckUK comes in white and chrome.

The Flashflight by Nite Ize takes the glow in the dark Frisbee to a new level. With an on/off knob you’ll never have to stop the fun to hold the disc over a light bulb for 10 minutes just to capture another 5 seconds of glow time. The flying disc utilizes an ultra-bright LED fiber-optic array illuminating the entire disc.
Sometimes pictures can be deceiving, but I was impressed to see that the disc illuminated as well (if not better) than the pictures portrayed. I knew from merely holding the disc that the heavy duty material and innovative design would provide optimal balance and stability during flight; and as usual I was correct.
You know that it’s time to update your old Frisbee, you might as well go with something ragingly awesome.

*Flashflight is the official flying disc of the Ninja.

Cool title, but what does it mean? Salvation for the terminator? No, that wouldn’t make sense. Salvation for the resistance? No, that didn’t happen. Oh well, just another movie title that couldn’t live up to its name, like “As Good As It Gets” or “The Never Ending Story”.

The big question is whether this movie does justice to the Terminator franchise. Despite director McG, who’s name sounds like a Happy Meal and the two writers (John D. Brancato & Michael Ferris) who have churned out garbage like "The Unborn" and "Catwoman", T4 was decent; I give the film a B+.

For those that have read Dan Browns first two Robert Langdon adventures know that Angels and Demons was written prior to The De Vinci Code.  However, in order to capitalize on the second books massive sales and controversy, director Ron Howard made Angels and Demons the second installation in the saga.

The chronological order really makes no difference and takes nothing away from either movie. If you are a fan of the first films adaptation of the novel, you might be a bit disappointed in Angels and Demons. The trailers are boasting this as bigger and better than The D.V.C., but in reality it’s not even close. The plot deviates drastically from the novel which would be fine if the changes made any sense, but they don’t and subsequently ruin the film.

If you enjoyed the National Treasure movies, you might have a good time at Angels and Demons.
