Self heating coffee? Huh?   :?    You’re kidding, right?!

Heck no! The people over at OnTech have come out with this nifty container which is self heating!     :o

There are easy to understand instructions right on the container. Once you activate that mo-fo, you’ve got a hot Mocha in five minutes! No microwave or stove required! w00h00! They not only have coffee, but they’ve also got tea, soup, and cocoa!!!

Next time you’re waiting in line at a coffee shop, frustrated at taking time out from your busy day, remember that whether you are on your way to work, driving to a soccer game, or just on ehw ay home for a movie night, Hillside Coffee is the most convenient and delicious on-the-go option. Available in four great flavors: French Vanilla, Mocha, Hazelnut, or Doubleshot.

I personally tried the Mocha variety. I was astounded when I took the first sip and not only was it super hot, but tasted really good as well! These little suckers are kinda spendy…I’ve seen them from $2-$3 a piece, but if you’re in a bind, I think it’s a good buy. Of course, you want to keep in mind that just because it feels heavy doesn’t mean that’s the weight of what you’ll be drinking. The junk inside that makes it heat up weighs quite a bit from what I can tell. My professional estimation is that you’re getting about 12 onces of tasty goodness. Not too shabby, really!

Anyway, that’s my recommendation for today. I really enjoyed it…it was a pleasant surprise!  BTW - HERE is a video I took of Lonnie earlier. He didn’t want me to post it, but damn it…he’s just so adorable and handsome. How can I resist?

I just downloaded the coolest screensaver known to man! I love it so much…I just have to share it with you guys.

It’s called Word Clock…the name says it all. That’s exactly what it is.

Word Clock is a typographic screensaver for Mac OS X and Windows. It displays a fixed list of all numbers and words sufficient to express any possible date and time as a sentence. Word Clock displays time by highlighting appropriate words as each second passes.

There are two display modes; Linear and Rotary which has a nice relationship with traditional analogue clocks.

Fine typographic control is provided so you can change the typeface, leading, kerning and alignment. Position and resize the display however you like. Font size is determined automatically for the best fit.

I have Word Clock running on my machine,and I flippin’ love it!I really love the fact that it’s customizable.

Mine is black w/ pink…my favorites. :love:

While I was looking around on the Net, I came across an item that made me audibly go, “Awwwww!”  I honestly can’t even remember what brought me to the page I saw this thing on, but darn it…it’s just so cute.

It’s a coffee cup ring! I guess it could be a tea cup, too…but I prefer coffee, so that’s what I’m going with.  DOH! I just realized it’s sold out.   :cry:    Oh noooooo!

This is where I found it. Maybe if we (you and me) stalk the page enough, we’ll catch it right after they get a new shipment or something! I refuse to give up.   :D
