Mustache Pint Glass
I’m digging these Mustache Pint Glasses… What can’t you improve with a stache? (Besides a hot Italian girl?)
The Stache itself is etched into the glass, so no worries about it wearing thin. Plus it doesn’t require any waxing…
You can pick up one of these bad boys for 15$ or you can grab a 4 pack for 50$.

FCUK The Dark Knight T-shirts
I’d just like to take a moment to complain about the lack of awesome FCUK Batman The Dark Knight T-shirts in the US. See all those awesome T-shirts there at the bottom of this page? I’m particularly a fan of the Heath Ledger inspired Joker t-shirt. [gallery] You know how many we can purchase in the US?
Just this guy. I can’t even drive up to the Canadian stores because they only have 1 shirt to choose from as well. The spirit is willing FCUK! Its just that I don’t have the money/time to fly to Europe at the moment. Plus I don’t enjoy paying some chain smoker on ebay 3 times the price to pick one up for me either. Anywho thats my little rant for today. Enjoy the awesome t-shirts…
UPDATE (March 26, 09): Just checked the various FCUK online stores and they are no longer carrying any of the Batman shirts listed above.

- Sounds like an interesting tool. Now I just need something to nail... Badum-Tish From The Page: A palm nailer is a magic hammer. Like a nail gun, you hook it up to an air compressor, but unlike a nail gun, it can be held in the palm of one hand. Its appearance doesn't make its usage obvious, but this air tool pounds in nail after nail without hurting your hand at all. Just place a nail exactly where you want it. Press the opening on the nailer over the nail, and BAP! BAP! BAP! BAP! BAP! -- compressed air drives a little hammer head inside the sleeve to gently pound in the nail. It takes about 10+ taps to get a nail all the way in, but in under a second.

U.S. AQUA PURE DRINKING WATER
I found this U.S. AQUA water can in an antique shop in Poulsbo, Washington. On the side it talks about how it's "IMPERVIOUS TO NUCLEAR FALLOUT" and cheap insurance. This convinced me that I had to buy it.
Then it sat on my desk for a month and a half. Besides providing life sustaining water in case of political destabilization due to the Nuclear Armageddon that we all know is coming in the near future, it also makes an awesome paper weight.
I haven't been able to find anything about U.S. Aqua or it's fallout impervious canned water on the internets, (other than some long dead eBay links that won't even show the seller or the specific auction even) so this is my original content contribution. Heres the complete text from the side of the can. Below that you'll find a gallery with a bunch more images of said water can.

Mac Tip: Change Screen Capture Format With Terminal
Remember how easy it is to screen capture on a Mac?
Cmd + Shift + 3
to take a picture of your Entire active screen.
While
cmd + Shift + 4
gives you some crosshairs that allow you to select what you want to copy.
Only problem is, the files are always saved as .png files. This is annoying if you want them in another format like .jpg. Normally you'd have to open your image editor of choice and then re-save it.
Turns out there is an easier way though!
All you have to do is run this Terminal Command
defaults write com.apple.screencapture type jpg
then restart your computer. Now every time you take a screenshot it will be in .jpg format.
If you want your screenshots in other formats like gif, png, or even pdf just change it in the terminal.

Burn After Reading Was Great
[caption id=“attachment_340” align=“aligncenter” width=“338” caption=“Burn After Reading Poster”]

I saw “Burn After Reading” at the theater last night. I thought it was great. If you liked the trailer you may like it. If you thought the trailer was lame you have a much higher chance of liking it, or at least that was my case.
Go see it. It’s funny. You’ll laugh. Or you’ll stare uncomfortably at the screen.
Also the “PC or Mac” line cracked me up.
