As much as I’d enjoy a barn-shaped whole wheat waffle, I’d be much more interested in seeing a chicken-shaped scrambled egg alongside a cow-shaped breakfast burger. That’s right. I am going to eat a hamburger for breakfast. I need to keep my stamina up so I can sweat over a hot keyboard all day. The chicken-shaped eggs are just there to mock hens, really. Aw crap! It looks like the cow just jumped over the moon.

Space Capsule House

This crazy looking Japanese living capsule is supposed to be flood and earthquake resistant. The structure is made from the same materials used in the Tokyo Dome. Acoording to the little pictures found on the manufacturer’s website, the structure smiles when it gets wet or when other buildings yell at it. It also appears that looking out the windows can cause maniacal laughter. Prices start around $30 grand if you don’t mind living in something that looks like a lunar lander. Actually, this looks pretty sweet. Maybe I’ll look up some mortgage lenders to see if they well shell out some cash so that I can re-enact Niel Armstrong’s trip to the moon!

TV In A Stool…What?

The NapTV concept is one of the oddest combinations of already existing technology that I’ve ever seen- it is a stool and an LCD TV. As a TV, it makes some sense, though it seems too expensive for most people to buy just for watching TV on their backs… maybe if you’re a bachelor or live in a dorm… then this might make sense… even then, it just doesn’t seem practical. Then, we have this item’s secondary function- a stool. Now, I don’t know if this is a statement about the quality of the electronics inside or not, but people are actually encouraged to sit on this TV. Maybe it is so prone (no pun intended) to break that the inventors decided that this TV can live on as a stool?
