Millennium Falcon Cake is Geekalicious

Posted on Tuesday 22 July 2008

millenium-falcon-birthday-cake Millennium Falcon Cake is Geekalicious
The best birthday cake I ever got was covered with 2 types of frosting and “Happy Birtday Jeff” written in icing by some pimply faced 16 year old from the local cake shop. And yes they wrote “birtday”. Never could I have imagined getting such a geeky awesome cake like the Millennium Falcon Cake. And never would my parents have spent that kind of money on something that 20 hungry kids would devour in 10 minutes. But for some people, geekery trumps all and for those people we are thankful that they at least took the time to take some pictures for the rest of us cause this cake is totally freakin’ awesome. I would love to inflict some rebel tongue damage on that frosting and search for Han Solo with my fork. I can eat my way to the hidden hatch, no problem. Geekalicious!

Bizarre Carafe Looks Like Tree Roots

Posted on Wednesday 16 July 2008

root-carafe Bizarre Carafe Looks Like Tree Roots
Strange Carafes have to be one of the most bizarre beverage holding contraptions ever. Designed by French designer Etienne Meneau and costing close to $10,000, they are more sculptural than functional. They remind me of tree roots after the soil has been washed away. It looks large and difficult to pour from and it certainly won’t act as an efficient decanter for wine since it doesn’t appear to allow very much air to come in contact with the wine. But it looks good, and that’s important.

Coin Operated Ice Cream Claw Game

Posted on Thursday 10 July 2008

ice-cream-claw-505x304 Coin Operated Ice Cream Claw Game
We’ve all seen the coin operated claw games where you try to manipulate the claw to pick up a stuffed animal that you then have to lug around for the rest of the night and will eventually end up being sold at a garage sale for 10 cents even though it cost you $10 in quarters just to get it because you were trying to impress some girl who ended up sleeping with that guy from the football team instead of you.

Well have you ever seen a claw game where the prize is ICE CREAM?!!? From Japan, of course, comes this awesome claw game the “Triple Catcher Ice”. The ice cream treats are frozen at a super low temperature so they are rock hard and not damaged by the prongs of the claw. Supposedly the game is a bit easier than the standard stuffed animal version. You can win one of four frozen treats: soda flavored ice bar, strawberry vanilla parfait cup, chocolate vanilla soft cream cup, and the vanilla short ice bar. Hopefully it doesn’t cost you $10 just to get one.
