Pinel & Pinel Arcade Trunk

As much as i love this arcade i have to tell you 1 thing, this is WAY over priced! Lets think about this logically what are we looking at
a Screen $100
controls $20
CPU with 60 games $100
iPod Dock $20
Amplifier $200
Speakers $150
Casing $400!
Total Estimate $990
But like a rollable Dave & Busters, the Pinel & Pinel Arcade Trunk ($13,700 and up) is a retro arcade powerhouse on wheels. Featuring a 1080p LCD screen, a high-def sound system with integrated iPod/iPhone dock, and sixty built-in titles include Pac-man, Space Invaders, and 1942, this high-end gaming cabinet comes clothed in your choice of one of 51 colors of calfskin, which works with the chromium-plated dashboard and aluminum wheels to add a touch of class to your man cave or game room. Again if you are rich enough to blow money on this system you prob already own an actual Man Cave.

Ok now hold up a second i know what your thinking and whatever it is don’t go there! The misty mate is exactly what you need. Most of you have been living under oppressive heat for the past few weeks, with sadly, no end in sight. We refuse to sacrifice our outdoor time just because Mother Nature won’t cooperate with our needs – so we’re taking matters into our own hands and installing the Misty Mate Patio Mister ($35). As it releases a continuous stream of mist that evaporates on contact, you and your guests will be instantly cooled and comfortable. Simply clip the line to your roof or gutter, with the included brackets, and connect to your garden hose. Voila, an answer to our sweaty prayers!

Ballpark Classic Game

Ballpark Classics MLB Baseball Game

Create your own league or just reenact past fall classics with the Ballpark Classics MLB Baseball Game ($250). This challenging tabletop game is made from quality materials like wood and a turf-like felt playing field, and comes with over 30 MLB mini-felt pennants to allow for stadium customization. Players simply assume the normal positions of hitter and pitcher, with the pitcher sliding the ball down a slick tube and onto the authentically-scaled field, where the batter — or bat, as it were — awaits. Hit it into one of the openings in the fence to advance your runners, or perish. Sure, you could pick up a console gaming system and an MLB-licensed game for the same price, but then you’d miss out on the joys of pre-1980s era gaming.

Strathwood Portable Folding Hammock

Strathwood Portable Folding Hammock

Hammocks are fantastic, but traditional models require something that’s not always available: two sturdy trees/poles to hold them up, and once they’re up, they’re not exactly mobile. Other models that have a base aren’t portable and can run you a few hundred dollars but The Strathwood Portable Folding Hammock ($80) solves this problem by using a powder-coated steel frame that folds up and drops into its included carrying case, while the textilene fabric sling, suspension chains, and removable pillow keep you comfy, provided you had the sense to park the thing in the shade.

If it ever happened or not, unless your starring in top chef you had the fear of grating your finger into some cheddar cheese or sliceing the tip of your knuckle along with a potato? Yeah. OW. Then a Safe Slice ($6) should be your next kitchen purchase. This little finger shield features soft grips to help you “lock on” to the food you’re holding, but protects digits from being a part of the dinner menu. It’s also handy for keeping slippery food in one spot whilst chopping.

While i was at a spa in Hong Kong they used to have fruit floating in the water, while the taste was delicious the floating pieces were not as pleasant. The Ceylon Pitcher ($30) from CB2 is our new BFF, not to mention our summer salvation! The Ceylon comes with a removable filter, which you can fill with cucumbers, mint leaves, tea leaves, what have you. Fill the other side with water, sangria, vodka, what have you.
