If I had a nickel for everytime someone saw a fake product in a movie and said "someone should actually make that!", I'd be a rich man. Well, unfortunately, the only rich ones here are the guys who actually made the products!
Omni Consumer Products is a real company that makes the fake products you see in movies! TruBlood, Brawndo, Stay Puft Marshmallows -- they make it for your consumption. It's very geeky and very cool. Check them out!

So I just got this new pocket projector (the 3M M150, thank you very much!) and I'm exploring all the different uses for it other than watching movies on my wall. Here's one idea I eventually want to do myself, a projected storybook of sorts. This is amazing and so simple.
The Ice Book (HD) from Davy and Kristin McGuire on Vimeo.
If a book is just way too small for your standards, check out these crazy building projections. I haven't seen one of these in person yet, but I want to! I'll work on mine and I'll let you know what happens!

Who knew chocolate antiques existed? I'm kidding, these aren't that old. Buy some for yourself or a grandparent who will appreciate these.

A sad day for colored bricks and those who ever wanted to own an *awesome* house (myself included). The house built out of LEGO bricks had to be demolished after a buyer could not be found. The bricks will be donated to a charity.
