Blech. Too…much…turkey… On a day like this, after a huge meal, your stomach needs something normal and soothing. Like Lay’s Rotisserie Chicken potato chips. Not your style? Maybe you’d prefer their Ham & Cheese chips. No? Then you’d love their Mustard & Pickles chips. BARF! If you’re crazy enough to try them, you can find them in Tunisia. (As in Luke Skywalker’s house, and home of the real Tatooine). Here’s a video featuring a Tunisian Star Wars set.

I love Wired magazine. In fact, I recently extended my subscription through the next three years. So when I received a letter from Wired, I excitedly thought through all the possibilities. Perhaps it was a simple ‘thank you’ form letter. Maybe it was some sort of special offer. Perhaps even a gift. Nope- just an offer to subscribe to Wired. Huh?!? I should’ve known better.

You ever find yourself trying to find a gift for the person who has everything? Maybe they’d like a ghost in a bottle. I can almost guarantee that they don’t have one of those. Be careful, though. The site says that they “cannot be held responsible for any misfortune to befall you should you take possession of this object.” It’s pretty bad when the home page has the tagline “Supernatural or Novelty?” Not much of a satisfaction guarantee. Anyway, if you have $20 to get rid of and you seriously can’t find anything more worthy to spend on, you too can buy an empty bottle. If you’d prefer to save your money, fish through a trash can and you can also dig up an empty bottle. Now if they were selling a Genie in a bottle, then that would be a different story.
