How 'bout them Cowboys?... The boys are back!!! :D

2011-09-11T03:41:00.000-07:00

Tonight is the big night! :D Tonight is the night we Dallas Cowboy fans get to see our boys play on the field for the very first game of the regular season for this year! <33333 I bet this is gonna be a game to remember! ;) I'm soooo proud that our cows are what everyone calls "America's team." :') And I'm soooo proud to say I've been a huge fan since 2006, all thanks to Terrell Owens! <333 And last but not least, I'm soooo proud that Dallas replied to me on twitter more than 3 times in one year! :O They're all just uh-mazing in every single way!! ★ ☆

EastEnders on PBS is simply flawless!!! ;)

2011-06-21T05:18:00.000-07:00

I really enjoy watching this show on PBS so very much. :D Over the past few years it has become my favorite show of all time. But I really wish that PBS would play more than 2 episodes a week... that's just to little for me, and probably for many others as all. But all in all, I'm just glad they play it at all, because if it wasn't for them, I wouldn't even know about this show in the first place. :O So, thank you so much PBS for broadcasting it, and EastEnders for creating the best show in the whole entire world, respectively. :)

The Top 3, best songs (to me) that are scary in 2010-11.

2011-06-01T01:08:00.000-07:00

Here's a list of some spooky songs I've heard recently! So, here's a little ole list for all of you guys. ;)

1. "Haunted" by Taylor Swift, is a song with a very haunting beat and she's really singing her heart out with it! :) The lyrics are very catchy, after all, she is one of the most talented song writers of our time. *_*

A+

2. "Criminal" by Britney Spears, is a song that has a really dramatic beat, vocals, and lyrics! 8) It's just an all around amazing song! and it may be the very last on the album, but it's totally one of the very Top 3 on the album!!! :D

A+

3. "Alice" by Avril Lavigne, is a song that has a powerful beat, melody, and lyrics, that happen to be also empowering. ;) Which is not really surprising, since most of her songs seem to be that way in general! 8D

B+

Pirate-ish, skull umbrella - I hope you guys like this as much as I do.... Please, stroll down the page; I don't think you'll want to miss this. <3

Is this umbrella curious or what? Haha, I like the actual way the umbrella was made. Like, the shape of it is slightly different from an average umbrella's shape; the average umbrella looks like an upside down bowl, lol, but this one just looks a little bit different - Okay, so I'm going to stop trying to explain what I mean and just hope you guys understand, haha. Available for $16.99 at Amazon.com!

Ooh, there's more! Haha, okay, so "Skulls and Crossbones Print Black Umbrella" is available at Amazon.com for only $9.39, but, if you're willing to spend a little bit more money, you could have that lovely umbrella with a lovely black "Skulls & Crossbones Tote Bag" for $32.90 - pretty nice deal?

Baby Humanoid

2010-03-02T12:28:00.000-08:00

The Cute Robot Project Cam-BABY Humanoid Robot is a perfect blend of futuristic and adorable.

The Cam-BABY is a humanoid robot - in baby form - wearing a diaper, in your choice of green, blue or white. When you clap your hands, just a single time "The eyes flashes every two steps and makes an adorable sound. However, when it trips and falls down on the floor, it cries out to its owner. Once it stands on its feet, the crying sound stops." Cute.

I don't know if it would make a good gift for a little girl that wants a traditional baby doll. Maybe if she's into robots, too.

Bone Chilling

2010-03-01T07:09:00.001-08:00

Okay, so I found some more (curious!) stuff on skeletons - care to see? I hope so, lol.... *sighs* Oh yeah.

Simple but very cool. *smiles* If you really do like skulls and stuff like that - I'd suggested this product to you. I've never purchased this, but I doubt there's anything wrong with it, so yeah, lol - I recommend this product to all who love skulls and bones. <3

-Lola :)

You Light Up My Life....

2010-02-28T09:50:00.000-08:00

Okay, so today I have something on - not only 1 curious being.... but 4 curious beings! <3 *sighs* You guys, please - stroll down!!!

1st, pirates! Why? Long story!
Available for $9.95 at Amazon.com!

2nd, mermaids! Why? Well, they remind me a lot of pirates, you know, because both of them have that sea/ocean theme going on. <3 I really do like this switch plate - but mostly just because of it's soft focus, dusty colors.

Also available for 9.95 at Amazon.com!

3rd, dragons! Why? Honestly, idk.... But why not, lol? <3 I simply just like this one; I find it very curious, indeed.

Available for $11.75 at Amazon.com!

4th (last but not least), unicorns! Why? Because unicorns remind me a lot of dragons, lol - both of them fly, after all.... I think? Hmm, can unicorns fly? Anyway, I really like this one, as well; the colors are bright in a soft-ish way - and the whole picture just looks so happy!

Haha, available for $9.95 at Amazon.com!

-Lola :)

Loads of Treasure.

2010-02-27T09:58:00.000-08:00

Whoa, I found so much stuff on pirates today, lol. <3 I'm not going to throw all of it on one post tho', but I definitely will post a few of the things that I find, so please - stroll down the page a bit, you guys!

Not only is this a pirate - but it's a skeleton, too!!! <3 I just find this clock quite cool, so I thought I'd share it with those of you who may have never even seen it before. *smiles* Haha, available for $24.95 at Amazon.com!

.... Arrr!

*sighs* Wow, I just love how inexpensive these little charms are. I mean, really - you could buy all four of these for under $5.00.... It's just awesome, lol. <3

-Lola :)

They're in the Petunias Again!

2010-02-26T08:24:00.000-08:00

*sighs* It's so hard for me to found curious things on gnomes - just as hard as finding curious things on vampires....

Okay, so is it just me - or are these knitted gnomes simply adorable, lol?

Here's how the game works: the garden gnomes find a way into the petunias. It's the player's job to catch all of the garden gnomes before they ruin all of the flower beds.... Sounds cute? <3 Includes a red rainbow colored catching bag + 5 colorful craft gnomes. Age suitable for babies 6 months and older.

I Saw a Mysterious Unicorn in the Darkness....

2010-02-25T10:06:00.000-08:00

Hiya, guys! <3 I just found something quite nice on unicorns, so please - take a look!

I just love the artwork on this lamp; so cute but in a mysterious (and curious!) kind of way, you know?

It's a "touch lamp," you gently touch or tap or rub it (like a genies lamp!), and it turns on auto-magic-ally. <3

If some of you would like to have a closer look at this lovely lamp - feel free to click here.

Rapscallion, Radical, Reef, Rope's end, Row....

2010-02-12T19:53:00.000-08:00

The Pirate Encyclopedia T-shirt is a visual depiction of a letter that people have long know pirates to be fond of.

Actually, I didn't know it. I though it was just a sound they made and in that sounds standard spelling, it begins with a "A." Like, "Arrrr!!" - right? I even checked out multiple online pirate dictionaries (here, here and here) and the like and my findings are in fact yielding the sassy and sophisticated letter "S" as the favorite of pirates, by far.

But, whatever, it's on this shirt so it's obviously factual.

Sneakers From the Sea!

2010-02-11T15:48:00.000-08:00

Okay, okay - I know, I know.... I created a post on shoes, recently, but I felt as if these shoes had to go up on the blog!!! I could have posted about them later, but there hasn't been a post on mermaids for a while now, and this was the curiousest mermaid product I could find. *sighs* Oh, and the other shoes were platforms - these are hi tops, alright? Alright!

The "Mermaids! Black Red Hi Top Women's Vegan Sneakers" are available for only $24.99 at Amazon.com!

See, aren't you guys happy I posted about these, lol? I love the colors - they're so stylish. Oh, but in case you're more into softer/lighter colors, don't worry; I've got something for you, as well.... Please, stroll down the page a bit, and take a look yourself! <3

I think I preferred the brighter/darker ones, but really, I like these, as well - very cute. <3 Also available for $24.99 at Amazon.com! P.S. they're both Vegan!!! Isn't that simply wonderful? *sighs*

-Lola :)

For Valentine's Day

2010-02-10T15:59:00.000-08:00

If you feel like Valentine's Day (the 14 for those of you who don't know) has steamrollered it's way all up on you and you have a Valentine you want to get something super-duper special, you can never go wrong (nor put yourself in a soon-to-be much regretted debt) with some chocolate or a stuffed animal.

These super fancy-dance-y Teddy Bear Truffles may be just what your searching for. At $15 buckaroos they are certainly a little more "spend-y" than most of the stuff you'll find at your local drugstore (and hey, really, chocolate is chocolate, right?) but if it's a miniature bear made of "Mayan ganache of milk chocolate, cinnamon and crushed roasted almonds" plus holding little a "ivory chocolate heart dusted with a sprinkle of crystallized sugar" go for it.

If I had a Valentine, I'm not sure if I'd get these for him or not, though. My name is Teddie and that's is a bit cheesy. But, I'm frequently cheesy, so my Valentine probably would expect it and wouldn't think much of it.

Because Sharing Shows Caring.

2010-02-09T11:56:00.000-08:00

Over on one of the best-ie-est stores ever, ThinkGeek, there is a robot that cares deeply about the way you listen to your tunes. Not so much what you listen to but the way you do. Splitterbot wants to help you spread the love.

It enables you to use two pair of headphones connected to one device. So you can share what's on you MP3 or and audio device.

From the product description:

Product Features

Mini Robot hangs from your keychain and allows you to share music from one audio device with two people
Pop off his head for audio sharing goodness
Works with any standard headphones and portable music player
Headphones not included
No batteries required

I'm going to admit, I can't say there have been tons of times when I've been listening to my headphones and I thought to myself "Aw, I wish so-and-so could listen to this with me, ugh! Solo audio experiences make me so mad." (and if I really, really meant it we'd both uncomfortably share the headphones).

BUT there have been a couple of times I've thought that. I honestly think that if I actually had my own Splitterbot, in my possession, I'm confident it would inspire me to recognize many more opportunities and occasions for sharing the noise.

Have Your Own (Jade) Dragon!

2010-02-08T12:36:00.000-08:00

Oh, hi, you guys! I'm glad you're here; I have something, actually a couple of things, I'd like to share with all of you. <3 As I was glancing at the tags, I noticed that this blog has only had 1 post on dragons. Ted and I have had this blog for.... over a month now, and we've only got 1 post up on dragons. Dragons are very curious beings, in my opinion, and so, I decided to do something about it - I decide to do something about it quickly, because the fact that dragons only have 1 post up on this blog.... just isn't right.
Behold - dragons!!! "Jade Craved Dragon Pendant in 18K Gold over Sterling Silver"

Isn't this curious?

It looks more like a seahorse than a dragon to me, but dragon is in the title, so yeah, it's a dragon.... which means this is another post up for dragons - w00t! <3

The fact that this looked like a seahorse (to me) actually lead me to the wikipedia page on seahorses, which caused me to discover "dwarf seahorse" - aww, they're so tiny and cute! If some of you are interested, you know, I left that link there for you guys - feel free to check it out, lol.

Oh, and the "Jade Craved Dragon Pendant in 18K Gold over Sterling Silver" is available for $89.99 at Kmart.com!

Facts on the Jacks.

2010-02-07T11:24:00.000-08:00

For this "101" I skipped over the Lumberjack page on Wikipedia and cherry picked some basics.

Here is an intro into the world of Lumberjacks:

10)Lumberjacks are known today as "loggers." Were starting this thing off nice and slow. lol

9)Lumberjacks could be found wherever there were vast forests to be harvested and a demand for wood, most likely in Scandinavia,Canada, and northern parts of the United States.

8) At first, Lumberjacks were exclusively men.

7)A female logger is called a Lumberjill. Lumberjack and Lumberjill went up the hill to fetch some logs...

6)Lumberjacks worked in lumber camps and often lived a migratory life, following timber harvesting jobs as they opened.

5)The most famous depiction of a lumberjack in folklore is Paul Bunyan. Several towns claim to have been the home of Paul Bunyan and have statues of Bunyan and his ox "Babe" in the town.

4)In popular culture, the stereotypical lumberjack is a strong, burly, usually bearded man who lives to brave the natural environment. He is depicted wearing suspenders, a long-sleeved plaid flannel shirt, and heavy boots. He is often depicted as being very hungry and eating a large stack of flapjacks or pancakes. He works by cutting down trees with either an axe or with the help of another lumberjack, a crosscut saw.

I personally adore suspenders, flannel and pancakes.

3)Many colleges have woodsmen teams or forestry clubs, which compete regionally, nationally, and internationally.

2)There are also lumberjack shows which tour the United States, demonstrating these old time lumber practices to the general public. Loggers' rodeos are also held in some towns which demonstrate these events to the public.

1)The Lumberjack World Championships have been held annually in Hayward, Wisconsin, since 1960. Over twelve thousand visitors come to this small northern Wisconsin town each year in late July to watch men and women compete in 21 different events, including log rolling, chopping, timed hot (power) saw and bucksaw cutting, and pole climbing.

Zombies Go Veg!

2010-02-06T13:33:00.000-08:00

Want a new mouse pad? A curious new mouse pad? No worries - I got just the thing for you. As I was searching the web for zombies, I came across something I found very unique. <3 Please, feel free to stroll down the page a bit in order to see for yourself.

Grains! <333 Haha, I love vegetarian zombies! It's nice to know that there are some zombies out there who would prefer to eat grains - rather than brains, lol. For a while, I thought all zombies ate brains - but I guess not! I mean, after all, a picture's worth a 1000 words, right? Right!?!? Alright! <3 I, myself, am actually a vegetarian, so yeah.... I would probably be a vegetarian zombie, I guess - that is, if I were to ever become a zombie someday, lol. Available for only $11.45 at Zazzle.com!

Oh, and since we're discussing how cool vegetarian zombies are - I thought I'd throw in this t-shirt. <3

*gasp* More grains!!! Oh yeah!!! Haha, okay, so this right here is also available at Zazzle.com, but for $23.80.... Hmm, not bad for a vegetarian zombie t-shirt - not bad at all.

Get a Skull-A-Day

2010-02-05T07:21:00.000-08:00

Everybody loves those ridiculously creative(some say stupid) memes which are ideas that we can't believe someone actually thought of. But this is one of those one's that you can believe somebody thought of because it's a thing that sort of a half-trend - something that's around but you still get really giddy when you stumble on to it.

May I introduce to you (unless, of course, you've heard of it before) Skull-A-Day. It is exactly what it sounds like. A blog that'll give you your daily skull fix. And the do what they do quite well. Some of my picks for best of the blogs recent post.

Box Tree Skull

Handmade Skull Mug (CONTEST)

Pair of Painted Skulls

What's a Teenage Vampire Girl to Wear!?!?

2010-02-04T15:24:00.000-08:00

Hiya, what's up, you guys? I just found something quite curious on vampire - which I'm thrilled about because I can never seem to find anything really curious on vampires. *sighs* Like, whenever I search the web for interesting vampire stuff - idk, I just oftentimes find costumes and stuff like that. Costumes are great and everything, but there are so many of them out there, you know? I wanted to find something hidden on vampires, like something none of you guys have ever, ever, ever seen before!!! Hehe, okay, um, you know what? I think it's time I put a lid on it and just tell you guys what it is that I found....

Stylish, huh? <3 These adorable "Vampire - Black Lace-up Platform" are available for $58.99 at BelloIris.com, and guess what - they're vegan! <3 Hooray!

Ooh, here they are with a bit of red! <3 I thought I'd post these, as well - since I kind of feel as tho' they have more vampire-ness going on. Plus, I just like these better, lol, so yeah. Available at the same exact store as the other ones (for the same exactly!) - click here for a closer look at them. <3

Sugar Skulls

2010-02-03T15:47:00.000-08:00

Many people have heard of the Mexican holiday the Day of the Dead(wiki page for more information if you want it). I think it's one of the raddest holiday's ever. I'm a tad bit obsessed with the sugar skulls that are traditionally made in celebrating this holiday. I think they're one of the most interesting and beautiful things. I haven't posted anything on them on this blog before so I thought I'd start what will probably become a big topic around here. I've never made them before, nor have I thought of doing so. I stumbled onto this recipe while looking for Mexican food recipes and it's sounds like it'd be a toy-car-load of fun to make. Recipe on about.com

Also check out the kits on MexicanSugarSkull.com for, you know, sugar skull kits and stuff. This blogger's step-by-step use of a kit is nifty as well.

Sweet Little Teddies!

2010-02-02T08:56:00.000-08:00

Greetings, curious explorers! <3 It's been 2 weeks since I've posted anything on this blog - apologies to anyone who cares, lol. *sighs* I know, it's just a blog - and it seems like blogging would be one of the easiest jobs on earth. It's not even just the blogging part tho'.... it's the trying to promote it part, as well. It can get pretty exhausting, but I refuse to quit - at least not this early. I'm going to stop whinny about how complicated it can be, and I'm going to start focusing on how I cannot give up.

Okay, so here are some curious products I wrangled up on teddy bears - enjoy (hopefully). <3

"Teddy Bear Muffin Pan by Cookez" allows you to bake muffins that are teddy bears (and teddy bears that are muffins....). *winks* Available for only $9.99 at Amazon.com!

Can't bake without an apron! <3 Okay, so maybe you can, lol - but c'mon, you guys know what I mean....

Ooh, and you've gotta have a matching mug to go with your adorable apron - you've just gotta!

-Lola :)

Ghost Hunters International - On Syfy

2010-01-27T10:17:00.000-08:00

Ghost Hunters International which is airing on Syfi is exactly what it sounds like. It an original series and a spin off (of Ghost Hunters) which appears to be raking in quite a few new viewers to the channel. I don't take a huge interest in the subject of ghost hunting, as I feel the hunters never find what their looking for. We the viewers never see the ghost, you just get "signals." But I may tune in anyway. I'm intriged by their idea to take it International. The places they go all scream "this place is totally hunted." And the hotels/prisons/castles/homes/etc. all have "stories," too.

Also notable: the Official site is big fun.

It's even got an online store with stuff like this:

Starter Ghost Hunting Kit - $99.75 - It seems pretty Official (you know, for a ghost hunting kit)

Now Betsey Johnson's Into the Skull Thing, Too....

2010-01-22T16:35:00.000-08:00

My very favorite clothing designer ever has been adding a whole lot of skulls to her line lately. But none of them really, really, really caught my attention until I saw these dresses:

Lookin' Like a Lumberjack!

2010-01-19T15:01:00.000-08:00

Oh, I simply adore red buffalo plaid, lol - don't you guys? I mean, there's just something about it that looks so fashionable to me. <3 As you guys probably already know, what makes red buffalo plaid so curious is that it's actually quite lumberjack-ish - and as we all know, lumberjacks are definitely curious beings.... and so, here's some buffalo plaid that I scooped up from Amazon.com - enjoy!

Now is this curious or what? I love red buffalo plaid, and really, this is such a cool little cap. *sighs* I so want that cap!

Available for $14.95 at Amazon.com!

If you guys didn't notice, I tried to add quite a variety of clothing into this post: jacket, scarf, purse, and lots of hats! <3 I hope you guys enjoyed this post - I kind of rushed making this one (lol), but I enjoyed searching for buffalo plaid because I really do like it a whole lot.... so yeah, lol.

Plant vs. Zombies - And It's So Adorable!

2010-01-17T14:25:00.000-08:00

In the game "Plants vs Zombies" plants protect your home from zombies. It has a very perky (but not too cutesy) look to it and it has lots of levels and mini games, too.

The object of the game is to protect your home (far left side of the screen) from the zombies (far right side, but coming in quickly). You collect the falling suns for points and you use your points to get plans. The plants that "shoot" at the zombies, sunflowers - they help all of your plants grow faster, and various other creative plant creatures.

Playing the game:
When I first played the game I made the mistake of planting more sunflowers than the shooting ones, which the zombies can simply roll all up on and "fist" to there destruction (assisted by a lovely little squeaky noise). Also, don't rush to use your cherry bomb - try to use it when your desperate, like when a zombies closing in on your front porch and your lawn mover (the final protection your house has from an approaching zombie) has already been used.

I love the variety of plats, the mini games and the variety of zombies - never a dull moment when there are zombies on your lawn. Especially the ones of the gracefully athletic pole vaulting variety.

Another thing I was slow to recognize - when the sunflowers light up, they "birth" suns (points!).

You can grab a free-trial (60 minutes) on yahoo games, which is where you can buy it for just $6.95(!)

I really want to rave and rave and rave about this game. It has quite a little legion of fans. I think it should be even mightier. I love this game. :)

I really recommend you do. Seriously.

If your not sold yet - watch the music video, so catchy:

Set a Gnome On Fire!

2010-01-17T09:45:00.000-08:00

Alright, you guys, so this blog hasn't had anything on gnomes in a while, so.... I think it's time for some more stuff on gnomes, alright? Alright! <3 Okay, so here's something that I thought was rather interesting and certainly curious - enjoy.

They're nicely colored candles in the shape of little gnomes - which I found quite neat, you know, because.... well, gnomes rock, and candles can be very useful at times, so really, this is an excellent combination right here. *sighs* Oh yeah, lol.

They're available in green, blue, purple, and orange at ThisNext.com for only $1.75 - each gnome sold separately, btw.

Dance Little Unicorn, Dance!

2010-01-14T14:50:00.000-08:00

*sighs* I've been having such a hard time trying to find curious things on unicorns, lol. A lot of the unicorn products I've ran into online are, like.... cutesy things, you know? Kid clothing, toys - such as stuffed animals and dolls. But today, no, no, no, today I was actually able to find something on unicorns that I felt was.... unique, interesting, and very curious.

Ta-da! <3 Haha, isn't this one of the nicest music boxes you've ever seen? I especially love the forest-y scene in the background; it brings a less cutesy look and a more realistic look to the music box.... Well, at least in my opinion it does, hehe.

Photo Courtesy of Amazon.com

Music box includes: bracelets, earrings, charms and even more! Has four different drawers - front, back, and one on each side. It also comes with in inside mirror. What a special fantastic music box!

WARNING: Amazon.com pointed out that there are small parts - which are not suitable for children under 3 years, so I thought it was necessary for me to point it out (to you guys), as well. ;3

Cardboard Robot (Warning: missleading post title)

2010-01-12T10:24:00.000-08:00

This is a bit of, as it doesn't contain any actual "robots."

There's a brand of clothing that I really like a lot tittle "Cardboard Robot." I don't know why it's called that, it doesn't really make scene. Probably only because it sounds cool. I think that's swell.

My fave peices include....

This(GOAT)....

This(I <3 this dress with all my <3)....

This(Booming Bot)....

This(a cutesy sweater in t-shirt form)....

What's Shaking?

2010-01-11T09:33:00.000-08:00

Salt and Pepper shakers are basic kitchen accessories. They've been made into many shapes and sizes. Common ones being cutesy things, such as animals and foods.

Now, I have something to share with all of you; I think this is quite curious. Hmm, think you can guess what it is? Okay, fine, I'll just tell you - no, wait! I'll show you, right now. Please, stroll down a bit to take a look for yourselves.

Ax Men - 3rd Season of the Series on The Histoy Channel

2010-01-06T17:02:00.000-08:00

Lumberjack aficionados have something exciting to do next Sunday nights at 9. The History channel is airing the 3rd season opener of - "Ax Men." It's an "American documentary reality series that premierd on March 9, 2008"(via Wikipedia). It gives insight into logging history but mostly (I think?) I gives insight into the work of modern day loggers.

The show is a hit, lots of people love it. I does have some un-stellar reviews from some Oregon loggers whom claim the show is "more of a drama." I think that comes with the territory of almost all documentaries on any industry.

I for one can't wait to see it.

Watch Some Gnomes Take A Tumble!

Do you love gnomes? Do you love bowling? Well then, I've got something for you!

But now, I want to line them all up, and watch them all fall, all of them - every last one.... by playing "Gnome Bowling" - yeah!!!

Know For Sure If Ghost Are Hanging About (Maybe....)

2010-01-06T14:02:00.000-08:00

If you've ever been in an old home or building (or maybe your own home) and pondered if there were ghost frolicing about, now, for only $10 you can get an answer (maybe...).

The Baketan, a ghost radar(which I discovered on the Gush Magazine website) is a ghost detector. A pint-sized one you can clip to your cell phone or keyring or your ghost bustin' jumpsuits belt loops(that would look so fly, and I am being completely straight-faced serious).

Allegedly, it was tested in a know-to-be-haunted place in Japan. The thing gave the expected and appropriate you-do-not-want-to-be-here signal, a red (blinking) and (slightly buzzing) siren sound.

It's only $10(in a rainbow of different colors), and if you need to know if you've got ghost, it's definitely better than nothing, right?

Here's a demonstration (the background music is pretty fly....)

I'm Singin' (And Nun-Chuckin' and Swift Movin') In The Rain...

2010-01-05T13:49:00.000-08:00

I know practically everyone (or everyone that fancies themselves a fan of all things related to ninjas) has already seen this because when it came out (early-mid '09 I think?) everyone loved the clever design. I still think it's rad and after reading lots of reviews telling of it's quality, I really want one.

Samurai/Ninja Umbrella available on Amazon.com

Fierce Like a Zombie.

2010-01-04T13:57:00.000-08:00

Aah! Aah! Aaaah! <3 What could be more fierce than zombies, lol? I simply adore these heel; they're fashionably cute in such a scary way. *sighs* I totally want these heels, and I want to wear them with those silver robot leggings I was telling you guys about a little while ago. The eye, the teeth, the black bow - awesome, indeed.

Available at Dress-Code.co.uk!

Cute top to go with it? can I say fabulous? I think I will - fabulous!!! Okay, so you guys may think I'm getting a little too excited over this, but really, it's a pretty cool top. What can I say? I'm fascinated by zombies, lol.

Oh, and there are some zombie flats below. Now I'm not extremely wild about them, but I think they're alright. I can't really walk in heels, so these would be somewhat useful.... Naw, I'd rather just buy the heels and trip. -Lola :)

One Piece: Pirates' Carnival - Play With Your Whole Crew!

The mini games modeled after other games like ones form Mario Party series, others from "Concentration" or "Where's Waldo?".

The graphics are good, and it's very colorful. <3

Show Some Guts - Or Just Some Bones...

2010-01-04T10:04:00.000-08:00

A few weeks ago I saw a member of Adam Lambert's Band wearing skeleton gloves and I thought they looked really rad and I decided I must hunt down a pair. I found fingerless ones(also available with fingers, if your more into that sort of thing). I think their even radder than that Adam Lambert Band member dude (although, I won't look nearly as cool in these as he did in his).

I also found a plethora of miscellaneous bony wears:

And for your toes-ies:

Haha, okay, here's something that I find interesting, funny, and quite cute. If you know an infant who's obsessed with vampires (lol), I truly believe they'll love you for this forever <3 (yes, eternity). Clever designing of something that's functional. What a curious pacifier!

Ye Shall Steadfastly Guard Thy Fireplace! - The Black Knight Fireplace Tool Ensemble

2010-01-03T07:54:00.000-08:00

All of the fireplace tool ensembles I've come across before this one all looked pretty much the same. It a necessary tool and I guess the shape hasn't inspired much creative. I think this is ridiculously creative.

This hefty puppy weighs in at over 15 pounds of solid foundry iron, just like the original French antique it has the honor of being modeled after.

Beautiful and functional. All you could imagine from a knight in shining armor.

It includes a poker, broom and shovel for thee fireplace and it is priced (currently on sale) at $98.95 from Design Toscano

(NOTE: Reviews claimed some small differences in design from the picture - they are worth a quick reading if interested in purchasing)

The Unicorn Code

2010-01-03T07:23:00.000-08:00

I wasn't completely aware of the unicorn code before seeing this messenger bag.

Although, I suppose they do seem to have it "all together," so, it makes sense that they live their lives in this highly organized fashion by following what is known as The Unicorn Code. It goes as follows:

1. Unicorns never cheat.
2. Unicorns always lend a helping hand.
3. Unicorns don’t talk to strangers.
4. Unicorns respect the Earth.
5. Unicorns are never late.
6. Unicorns aren’t conceited.
7. Unicorns don’t judge people.
8. Unicorns always give 100%.
9. Unicorns graze on peace and love.
10. Unicorns don’t do drugs.

Now I think unicorns are even cooler than I already had (mostly because of #2 and 5-10).

Sing It With Me! Robo-Legs.... Robo-Legs.

Available for $52.00 at LuLus.com!

They're cute and flashy. Featuring a robotic (or astronautic) metallic stretch with ruched sides.

They're very bold. They suggested wearing them to a club (because they'll sparkle and shine under the lighting). I don't go to clubs tho', so I'd wear them to the grocery store or bowling.

Aah, I love these leggings - they're on my wish-list! <3

Okay, so I found this "Ninja Quad Blade" at Amazon.com yesterday, and decided that it was just too nice not to blog about, so here it is. Available for $75.95 at Amazon.com!

A ninja quad blade - how cool is that? Mmm, it probably makes smoothies "ninja quick", lol. Oh, and before I forget, you guys might want to stroll down to the customer review comments before actually purchasing this product; a couple of people seemed to have some slight issues with it - including the fact that the blades are extremely sharp. Anyway, lol, I think it seems like a wonderful product to have! I really like the color of it; it's blue (my favorite color). Although, I do agree with my sister - black may have fit it better; blue's not really a ninja color.... I still love the color blue though!!!

Dragon's Breathe - Curiously Yummy

2010-01-01T14:22:00.000-08:00

Here be dragon's roaming throughoutst the forest of Saam at Bazaar.

There's a new popcorn confection at Saam at Bazaar that has gotten a lot of people very, very interested in the place.

It causes ones nose (and mouth - though I don't think that's as cool) to breath smoky little clouds(liquid nitrogen ). I'd never thought about it as a kid but now I'd definitely like to play pretend that I'm a dragon with puffs-of-smoke-breathing nostrils.

And I wonder if the popcorn is any good?

It's in the first 45 seconds of the video - after that it's some meat stuff (I'm a vegetatrian)....

I <3 Gnomes. You too?

2010-01-01T10:47:00.000-08:00

Ooh, here are a couple of interesting gnome-styled clothing pieces I found at Amazon.com! You know, a lot of people (including myself) don't know a whole lot about gnomes, so I went over to "Merriam Webster", and here's what I learned....

They are dwarf-like (actually, like most people - I already knew that, lol),
living underground,
guarding precious metals and stone (a.k.a. treasure).

Chop Through an Entire Forest of Cakes

2009-12-31T09:28:00.000-08:00

I really like the fact that this kitchen knife looks incredibly like an axe!!! Um, well, sort of like one, at least, hehe.... It's interesting, yes, but (as you guys probably already know) not all interesting things go on this blog.

The main reason for it being post-able on this blog is because it reminds me (and my sister) an awful lot of the axes that lumberjacks use to saw through wood.

Lumberjacks (of course) are curious beings, right? So, yeah, there you have it - something on lumberjacks.

This is the blog's very first post involving lumberjacks, but there should totally be more to come.... so don't you lumberjack aficionados worry, lol.

Snatch your own from Amazon.com and chop through a forest of cakes!

Wake Up and Do the Robot.

2009-12-30T07:50:00.000-08:00

An alarm clock - but not just any alarm clock! This is a tank robot alarm clock, which I find really cool because.... well, I've never seen anything like this before, lol. I really like how the arms and legs were built. I really like the one in red; it reminds me of an actual alarm clock. Although, if I were to get one right now.... I'd probably choose the one in black. Hmm, idk, it's just more of my style, I guess. I like the color black, so if I had one in black it'd feel more like mine (lol). But I recommend everyone to get whichever color they prefer, of course, lol, black is just the one I'd like.... well, I like both of them, really. So yeah, lol, I'm going to stop talking now (finally) - enjoy!

So cute it's scary.

"Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!"

I'm a teddy bear collector, and I find vampires quite intriguing, so this was something that really caught my eye. Good for a teddy bear or vampire aficionado; this vampire teddy is unique and oh so adorable. I like the fact that he'd look like a normal, huggable teddy bear from afar. Then upon closer inspection, you'll find something is different about this teddy bear.... perhaps dangerously different, if you've already gotten too close. I think his little fangs are a bit more cute than scary, and he's just as cuddly as any bear. The end.

"I will go everywhere with you, play tea party with you,
and keep you company at night.... and then drink your blood."

You can find this vampire teddy bear, along other vampire stuffed animals, at Etsy.com!

That's not chocolate dripping from your mug....

You can get any monster you fancy, like vampires or simply "leave a buyers note," if you've got something crazier in mind. Personally, I would choose zombies - definitely!

It's microwave, dishwasher and oven safe. Like most all designed dish-things, be sure to be "careful not to use abrasives on the lettering, though it is permanent it might scratch if abused."

I would love to drink some warm milk out of this mug.... hmm, or maybe tea.... Hot chocolate sounds nice, as well.

Get it from Etsy!!!

Tales of Vesperia is a video game available on XBox 360, and is Rated-T for teens. It has a nice anime style and theme, and a lush look. It looks, in my opinion, like an interesting (and exciting!) video game to play, and it's got a cool, classic anime plot.

Plus, it's got ninjas (I think?), what more can you ask for?

Know For Sure If Ghost Are Hanging About (Maybe....)

The Baketan, a ghost radar(which I discovered on the Gush Magazine website) is a ghost detector. A pint-sized one you can clip to your cell phone or keyring or your ghost bustin' jumpsuits belt loops(that would look so fly, and I am being completely straight-faced serious).

Allegedly, it was tested in a know-to-be-haunted place in Japan. The thing gave the expected and appropriate you-do-not-want-to-be-here signal, a red (blinking) and (slightly buzzing) siren sound.
