People like to dress up for Halloween. People like to dress their pets up for Halloween. What about your computer? Wouldn’t you like to dress it up too? Well you can. USB Fever has a computer decorating package available for your desktop. What comes in this package? How about a hat, mouse pad, lights and a screen saver. Your computer is sure to win the office costume contest.

Venexx makes this watch that sprays perfume.  You can fill it with perfume or cologne and when you don’t feel as fresh as you would like.  Spray.  It would also be great if you have a stinky person next to you. Ever been stuck on a plane next to someone who smells? Not a problem anymore. Although TSA might have a fit if you try to go through security with it on. If I had this watch I could go for a week without having to take a shower.  I am pretty sure James Bond has a watch like this except it is filled with acid or poison and not cologne. 

Since I purchased my Wii I have been playing quite a few of the Mario games.  Charles Martinet is the the voice of Mario and numerous other Nintendo characters.  Who would think that the voice of an animated Italian plumber would come from this guy.  

The Force Unleashed is coming to the Wii.  Soon I will be able to wield my very own lightsaber.  I wonder if I will be able to make a Darth Maul double lightsaber by gluing two Wii remotes together.  That would be sweet.

A great tiki aquarium and computer. The guys that created it documented the construction process. I want one of these.

I have the Guitar Hero games for my PS2.  They are great.  I also have a Wii and the dilemna comes with Guitar Hero 3.  Do I buy it for the PS2  or for the Wii?  They are hinting that the Wii version might eventually have online capabilities which would be cool but is it cool enough to buy a new guitar controller and the game?  I will probably end up staying with the PS2 version for now.

Astronomers are scratching their heads over a puzzling non-discovery, an enormous hole in the universe measuring nearly a billion light-years across. There really is nothing to the void, which is empty of both normal matter such as stars, galaxies, and gas, and the mysterious, unseen “dark matter” that astronomers detect by its gravitational pull.

If the scientific community had consulted me I could have told them exactly what this is. It is a planet- most likely the planet Kamino where right now a grand army of the republic is being cloned from the genetic material of bounty hunter Jango Fett.

The big question is can you swim with this thing on? My second question is when are they going to make an Ipod Speedo?  I would love to listen to the Jaws theme while swimming.

Korean company JWin has developed a bikini top with controls sewn in, allowing the wearer to perform all the usual options, from adjusting the volume to selecting tracks. JWin didn’t indicate where you should slip your iPod - anywhere you like, presumably, since the controls are wireless, connecting to a dongle on the music player.

This debuted at ComicCon.  The Lego Star Wars games were great.  I have high hopes for this one. 

In an earlier post I told you about the The Lazy Drinker. It looks like it has some competition with the Digital Beverages MyFountain XL. It looks a slicker and costs more money. I think a comparison should be done on both products and I hereby volunteer to test them.
