Remember Cap Guns?

Maybe if they still sold toy guns, there wouldn't be a market for skinny jeans.

Cheese Ball Machine Gun

Why not?

Gun Handle KOOLER

What could possibly go wrong?

Use at your own risk. You might end up like this guy with the poorly selected tattoo.

You shouldn't be drinking craft beer direct from the can anyway.

How Times Have Changed

Nowadays, we have teachers getting their knickers in a twist over the word "gun" used in a high school essay.

Funny, when I watch this video I keep thinking about the benefits of concealed carry.  :-)

The Popinator

This looks like fun.

 But then again, who eats popcorn one kernel at a time?

AK-47 USB Drive

Last month we looked at a razor blade shaped bottle opener. Now here's something that is sure to get the hoplophobes worked up. The folks at Brando.com have a USB flash drive shaped like a AK-47 "assault rifle!"

Of course, to anyone with a modicum of common sense would realize this is not a weapon. In other words kids, don't take it to school with you.

Beer Geeks

Put a bunch of tech-savvy inventors and a beer fridge in the same room and something interesting is bound to happen. The guys at Milwaukee Makerspace take their beer, or at least their beer security, seriously. They've rigged their beer refrigerator with an RFID reader and use their key fobs to control access. They also track who's drinking, and how much. A display screen even welcomes the visitor.

Look like a fun project for a bunch of hackers and inventors. But rest assured, visitors to the Musings abode simply need to grasp the fridge door handle and pull to open.

Before Toys Were Virtual

I came across this old toy ad recently, from the days before toys were virtual. It gave me a chuckle, and a bit of nostalgic yearning.

When boys were allowed to be boys. Before political correctness weakened our society. Compare this to today where the hoplohobes in Buffalo, NY are holding "buy back" programs for nerf guns. Apparently they find that easier than actually teaching their children responsibility and respect for human life.
