Electric Motorboat lets you zip around the water in style

So you might not have the kind of money to purchase a yacht, where a bevy of beauties are also on-board, spraying Moet & Chandon all over the place as though it was water. Perhaps you are far more reserved, and want to be more involved in an intimate experience with your other half, leading to you considering the $4,000 Electric Motorboat from Hammacher instead.

This electric watercraft will offer you effortless waterborne excursions for up to two people, and it has a 6 hour battery life, so I suspect that most folks would be more or less back to where they were originally long before the battery has given up the ghost. The Electric Motorboat will feature a 12-volt electric motor that drives its two-bladed propeller. You will be able to cruise around at a leisurely 4mph, and the twin foam-padded recumbent seats which come upholstered in marine-grand vinyl are as comfortable as it gets.

To up the ante, there is a waterproof 120-watt audio system with a couple of 5″ speakers, and it can play music from a connected iPod. A built-in cooler will also be able to hold up to 24 bottles or cans of your favorite poison. Just make sure you know how to swim before buying one of these…

Panic Button Light Switch Replacement Kit

What happens when the world around you starts to shake and crumble? Why, you press the panic button, that’s what! Unfortunately, there are no panic buttons available at our whims and fancy, but here is the $24.99 Panic Button Light Switch Replacement Kit which might just turn your home into a more geek friendly abode. After all, those who are scared of the dark can always hit this faux panic button, to have light flood through the room in an instant after giving it a good, satisfying smack.

Bear in mind that pressing this is not going to abort any outgoing missile or somehow perform a miracle, it is just a big red and shiny button which begs to be pressed. I would even venture so far to say that your electricity bill might go up a whole lot more after installing these around the home, not to mention you having to replace your lights more often, since folks who drop by your place will most probably want to hit the Panic Button Light Switch as many times as possible to get it out of their system that there is actually such a deal in real life.

The GP Toilet – You Want at Home Medical Testing? Urine Luck!

We are all too familiar with the urine test. Everyone seems to want to run a little analysis on our tinkle. The doctor, your employer, even the latest weight loss fad all need us to pee on, or in something. How humiliating, walking down the cold hallway with your tiny little cup, the insecurity about the protocol of how to hand it back, do you wrap it in a paper towel or just drop it at the front desk? I hate it!

Well, welcome to the 21st century. Check out the GP Toilet, you simply select the testing you require from the integrated screen and a test nozzle appears in the bowl and awaits your “sample”. Quick and easy, you’ll be a whiz in no time. (sorry) The nozzle will then retract and analysis begins, thus “eliminating” your need to visit the doctor. This process can be very helpful in monitoring, diagnosing or even simply providing information, like when a woman might be ovulating.

The urine sensor even checks your urine flow and urine levels and then runs preselected testing, displaying the results (within minutes) on the screen. The “number 1″ reason the GP Toilet was designed is to partially eliminate the hassle and cost of a doctor’s office visit or laboratory testing, and it is especially convenient for those who must have such tests and work-ups done frequently.

The General Practitioner Toilet is the brainchild of Lucy Jung and Do Hyung Kim and  it isnt available just yet, but I can only imagine that the GP Toilet, or something very similar will be in everyone’s bathroom someday. Is that a good thing? or is medical testing in the hands of non-doctors a scary proposition? Let us know, I really gotta go!

You can also opt to increase the range of motion in order to build more muscle strength, while improving cardiovascular conditioning. Since the exercise is performed in water, you are able to maintain your balance far easier than when you are on land. As long as you are no heavier than 260 lbs., the In Pool Exercise Glider ought to hold.

Ringtones only Teenagers can Hear – and Maybe your Dog

Did you ever notice that just as you grow up, you realize you’re missing out on a whole bunch of neat stuff that our kids get to have? I’m not saying I don’t have my own Nintendo and that I don’t play XBox and I haven’t dabbled in some World of Warcraft, but damn, if I were a teenager today I would have the world by the… you know what.

Check this out, for several years teenagers have been able to receive calls and text messages late at night or in their classrooms and their parents and teachers have never had a clue. How is this possible? Quite simple really, humans have the ability to hear much better before the age of 20 and thereafter, we begin to lose our ability to hear higher frequency sounds. A certain high pitched sound was developed to keep kids from “gathering” at malls and shopping centers. So, teens started recording that sound on their cell phones to use as a ring tone. Now, when a teenager’s phone is ringing, only the kid, and probably most of his friends, can hear it.

So this information isn’t that new, of course its certainly the first I’ve heard of it, so in case you missed it too, I’m passing the info on to you. That, and the fact you can now buy, what is called the Mosquito Ringtone, which is compatible with iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad for only 99 cents and available at iTunes What? Did you say something? Is that my phone?

My birthday is on Monday, so we’re celebrating on Saturday and I’ve been trying to plan something all week. I just cant seem to find the right venue to get myself all liquored up. I’m looking for a certain feel, I kinda want to party like I did in college… the kind of fun that you didn’t mind hurting from for a day or two after the fact… ah to be young again.

Well, I think I found just the party favor to enhance the evenings festivities and I don’t even have to leave the house, check out the Shot Glass USB, not only is it a shotglass, on a lanyard, so it is constantly at the ready and unable to be misplaced, thereby saving valuable drinking time, but it is also a 1 gigabyte USB, not loaded with spreadsheets or pictures of your last boring vacation to Florida… but (wait for it) …one minute drinking songs, with which, you play the Power Hour Drinking Game!

Here’s how to play, you simply gather up several of you’re closest friends (you know, the ones that wont write on your body with Sharpie markers and then post the pictures on Facebook) and then purchase your favorite beer, lastly, you start playing the one minute drinking music and everyone takes a shot, each time one of the songs end. 60 ounces in 60 minutes… let the games begin.

Okay we are not encouraging drunken debauchery here, we all know we have to drink responsibly, I did say I was staying home remember? but with songs like ” I’m Fine Occifer” and ” If you’re Wasted and You Know it” I think we all know where the evening is headed.
