GREAT CLIPSThe Greatest DVD Ever
They're not kidding: this disc shuffles the best clips from your favorite movies and TV shows
(Lebowski, Old School, The Simpsons). Every minute or so, a tiny numbered beer
icon pops up in the corner—your cue to take another shot. Not that you've ever needed help remembering
the essentials.
A CUT ABOVEThe Pizza Pro 3000
The answer to a problem you didn't know you had: boring pizza cutters. This thing's designed like a circular
saw, but those of you eager to take the "More Power" approach to slicing pie should take note: sadly, it's
not motorized.
SALE-INGOak's 30-40-50 Sale
At this store's semi-annual sale, everything from preppy striped ties from Band of Outsiders to gingham
dress shirts from Steven Alan is 40 percent off. There are hundreds more to choose from, but expect pickin's
to get decidedly slimmer next weekend, when the discount bumps up to 50 percent off.
IF YOU BUILD IT...iHandy Carpenter
You might have treated Dad to a couple tools last Sunday, but it's about time you start doing your own
household projects. Surprise: there's an app for that, and it includes a ruler, a level and a plumb bob. If
you're not sure what that last one is, then yes, you probably need this.
MAKING WAVESMeyerhoffer Surfboards
What happens when a former Apple product designer turns his eyes to something a bit more lo-fi? You get
this, a radically reworked version of the classic longboard—a beautiful object worthy of being
displayed prominently on a wall, even if you can't surf.
