Shake Your Booty

Do you remember This Post when I talked about technology and smart inventions? I'm going to introduce to you today an invention that combines between two important things in our life. The first thing is the elimination of fecal waste and the second is music. Is it more fun to do both at the same time? The intellect inventor of the Atech iCarta Stereo Dock thinks so.

It's a toilet paper holder that has a dock for the iPod so you can listen to your favorite songs while you take a dump. This "device" is being sold at one of the local computer stores in Toronto. I found the description to be a little funny.

You might run out of toilet paper, but you'll never run out of
tunes with the Atech iCarta Stereo Dock for your iPod.

How lame is that! I'm never gonna purchase this item because I read in the description that Toilet paper is not included. I mean, if I'm gonna pay $67.99 (plus tax and shipping) for the Atech iCarta Stereo Dock, I'd expect them to throw in a toilet paper roll so I can start using my new item right away. Now I think it's a rip off.

The Cost of Showing You Care

Despite the sluggish U.S. economy, this year lovebirds still plan to shell out an average of $123 each on Valentine's Day, estimates the National Retail Federation's 2008 Valentine's Day Consumer Intentions and Actions Survey. Total outlay for the U.S: $17 billion.

The survey polled 8,447 consumers and found that 61 percent plan to celebrate the holiday. The most romantic age group is the 18- to 24-year-old set, 72 percent of which plan to shower their sweethearts with everything from candy to jewelry this February. But it's the 25- to 34-year-olds who torch the most cash - $160 on average. Men will spend $163 on their valentines; women, just $84.

Funny how they made a song and called it Love Don't Cost a Thing. And then went on and made a movie with the same title.

Whether you're a lovebird or a lovelorn today, here is Bette Midler's The Glory of Love for your Valentine's Day listening pleasure.

I Still Want a Hula Hoop

Don't we all love Christmas songs and carols? It's now the time of the year when we get to listen to those beautiful tunes. And that's another reason I love Christmas! I just love walking in the mall and listening to the different Christmas carols playing in the stores. Looking at the Christmas trees and decorations also makes the image perfect.

If you love Christmas songs, and love Sesame Street and The Chipmunks, then you'll like the little something I have for you today. Here are four Christmas songs sung by Sesame Street's muppet characters and one song sung by Alvin and the Chipmunks. They're really funny and cute. They reminded me of those shows that I grew up with. I generally miss so many things about my childhood.
