For Kristina and Mackenzie: Made with Molecules, molecular jewelry
I love these t-shirts: I am not a terrorist.
The Radius 320, a 4800x1200 flat-panel monitor. Lovely. [thanks, Dave!]
The Ion iTTUSB Turntable with USB Record — For $150, I can make ripping vinyl to mp3 easy instead of the chore it is now. I covet this. [via Andrew P.]
This Apple notebooks comparison chart is quite handy, though I'm still at least fifteen months away from getting a new computer.
Luneray's Frog Prince Hat — Kris, you should knit one for me...
Fun Wii facts confirmed — okay, it's official — I'm not channeling all my "found" money (garage sale money, web site ad revenue, etc.) into a fund to buy Nintendo's latest game system when it comes out around Thanksgiving. I had been intending to save for a new Mac, but that can wait. I want a Wii.
Super Mario Galaxy — Place your bets now! What are the odds that Mr. Frugal buys a Nintendo Wii? I'd say they're 2-1 in favor at the moment. Time to start saving my pennies.
Hmmm. Could this dress be a birthday present for Kris? [via scrubbles]
I quite like these bento boxes [via frykitty]
Downloadable D&D Cyclopedia costs $6. I just sold my physical copy on eBay. This is my single favorite version of any fantasy role-playing game. It's just sheer fun.
BioBrite, sunlight clocks — I want one of these
For all my friends who knit, perhaps you too can aspire to beautiful art made with knitting. I'd love to have the first one. [via ml]
StepMania, a free dance simulation game for PC, Mac, and Linux. I've never played one of these games, but they look fun and are very popular. I'm thinking it might do the trick to get me to exercise.
Top-selling comics and graphic novels of 2005. I only purchased two of the top-selling comics (All-Star Batman #1 and All-Star Superman #1: I was unimpressed with each), but I purchased (or already owned) mumble of the top-selling graphic novels (where mumble is 21), and I plan to purchase several more. [via airbag]
** How to do what you love **
Viable Paradise, a science-fiction and fantasy writer's workshop
Caution: Cat Vomit — this is a must-have for the Roth/Gates household
I published this in the old flotch, but I just found it again and it's worth repeating. This is a comic geek's ultimate dream: collector amasses complete DC collection.
Ken Pierce Books — a simply jaw-dropping collection of comic book and comic strip compilations for sale (sorted by character) — you cannot even believe how overwhelmed I am by this find. Astounding.
Retro Toys is an awesome site: it offers "toys inspired by the past" [via Lisa]
Reportedly this is a good HDTV digital indoor antenna. The last one I bought sucked. We got nothing.
Dick Tracy, eat your heart out: a 64mb USB watch for $15 and a 1gb USB watch for $100 are available. (Prices drop after rebates!)
There are some cool ideas in MAKE's Mostly Under-$100 Gift Guide
Awesome! The TEAC Nostalgia Stereo System features a built-in turntable (which will even play 78s!) from which one may record to CD. This is like a dream device for me.
The Hidden Door Company — I've never seen an actual secret door, but the entire concept fascinates me
I must have died and gone to heaven: Labyrinthus Latinus is a MUD in Latin. In Latin! It doesn't get any geekier, folks.
Repeat, but worth it: Kevin Kelly's cool tools, a web site devoted to the best of everything
Uncle Mark's 2006 Gift Guide and Almanac — I read the 2004 version of this guide, and it was excellent, filled with great suggestions.
Candy You Ate as a Kid features all sorts of old candy that you may remember from your youth. For Lisa's sake, I hope they have circus peanuts. (They do! You can build your own bag of candy. Fantastic!) [via Lisa, who is getting old]
Apple's new Aperture is a piece of software designed for professional photographers. It looks intriguing.
I love these Flying Spaghetti Monster car plaques (and dinosaur-eating-fish plaques, etc.)
