Night Time Saucer Action.

Don't let nighttime ruin the back yard action for great summer fun! These illuminated discs are 185 grams for that perfect tournament weight feel and fly great. But what is really neat is seeing them fly at night. Illuminated with a colored LED and fiber optics emanating from the center, they truly look like UFO's (whatever that looks like) while in flight. Great fun for the whole gang. And they make EXCELLENT birthday presents for kiddo's who already "have it all". FLASHFLIGHT.

Shocking Fun!

Bought these for Christmas this year and can tell you, they are an instant classic. The concept: you chase your opponet around with a remote controlled tank and shoot him. 6 hits and you win! Now, here's the kicker. Everytime you take a hit, you get shocked. And i'm not talking some "fake" vibration shock. You get the crap shocked out of you! And if you are truly brave, put it on HIGH shock. You're arm will tingle for a half hour after the game. Of course, if you are devious like me, you'll just sell the game as something fun to play on your unwary victim. Watch their face when they get "hit". Worth every penny. SHOCKING TANKS.

Luke, I am your father!

Lasers like this only exist in the movies. Right? Well, not anymore. The new generation of 532 nm lasers (green) are nothing new. But ones so powerful that you can burst a balloon, on the other side of the room, as well as light a cigar with, are all the rage. Let your buddy show off his puny little 5mw laser then fire this dude up (through a series of safeties) and you will own him. Light up the night sky with this laser or power it up during the day! Of course, you'll have to take a second mortgage on your own home to own one but you'll have one pimpin' laser that even Darth Vader would have even been proud to own. HERCULES!

Get up lazy bones!

This could be about the most devious alarm clock that one would ever ask for. But if you are consistently late to work because you have slept through too many 9 minute snooze cycles, try the alarm clock that runs and hides. Annoying. Yes. But you'll get your lazy bucket out of bed to silence him. For sure. CLOCKY Submitted by my good buddy over at thatisright.blogspot.com.

This handy dandy little piece of hardware packs a long reach but requires very little space for storage in your already overstuffed garage. Carries well in a trunk or even pack it for a trip. You never know when you will need a 12' extension ladder. Xtend & Climb Ladder

The Noble M400

Very rarely does a new vehicle come along that will simply astound you. Meet, the Noble M400. Designed and manufactured in Great Britian, this vehicle boasts a top speed of 185 mph, sprints to 60 mph in 3.5 seconds, weighs a scant 2,337 lbs. on the curb and yes, you can even get it with air conditioning. If you have a buddy out there with a Porsche Turbo, Lambo Murcielago, or even a BMW M6, let him wallow in the wake of your exhaust as you outperform his every attempt to pass you. You can even spring for lunch since this vehicle will run you only about $70K, leaving at least $30K in tha bank for more toys. Noble Racing

Digital Photo Frame

We all suffer from a hard drive chock full of our favorite memories forever immortalized on a magnetic platter with no way to share our memories without running them as a slide show. What a pain, until now. This Digital Photo Frame by Philips is one of the largest on the market and is SO easy to use. One really neat feature is that it comes with a rechargeable battery so that you can pass it around for a little portable show and tell. Buy one today. Sharper Image.

A recommendation. The onboard memeory is pretty useless. Buy AT LEAST a 512 MB chip (Compact Flash) to add to your frame. I like to purchase all of my memory products from Crucial Technology.
