Meatball Grill Basket

There are quite a few things that go so well together, it feels wrong to eat them apart. Peanut Butter and Jelly. Burger and Fries. One of those is spaghetti and meatballs. Problem is, while pasta is fairly simple to make at home, meatballs tend to be a little more difficult. Either you have to flatten them to get them to cook evenly, or you try to keep them round but end up with that “raw on one side, burnt on the other” problem.

This grill basket fixes the problem for you. Put up to a dozen meatballs into the basket, set on the grill and enjoy. The perforated wells drip fat away, and the handle is removable to allow the grill lid to close.

Whether you want a meatball sub, or a plate of spaghetti, this grill helps get you there. Now, if the spaghetti part is your problem, you’re on your own.

686 Toolbelts

Murphy’s Law dictates that anything that can go wrong, will, and most often at the worst possible time. A zit on Picture Day, a flat tire on your way to a job interview, Fate has this weird way of always managing to kick us while we’re down.

Well, thanks to 686, we can kick back. They took the idea of a tool belt and went to an entirely new level. Instead of having a belt hold the tools, the belt is the tools. The two latches of the buckle are a flat- and Phillips-head screwdriver, the buckle cover doubles as a bottle opener, and it contains a removable belt loop that contains three 8mm, 10mm, and 11mm wrench heads.

So the next time that Karma seems to have a vendetta against you and decides to try and sabotage you, use this belt and fight back, and tell this Murphy-whoever to take his law and shove it.

Defendius Labyrinth Security Lock

The Defendius Labyrinth Security Lock understands that some of you can’t keep friends on your own. For whatever reason–you’re too loud, boisterous, obnoxious, abrasive, confrontational–the people you think are your friends are really wanting to head for the door every time you open your mouth about politics, religion, or how great you are at spotting transvestites. Now they can storm for the exit all they want, but this titanium-constructed, sturdy chain lock will hold them in place as you clarify your position that you don’t think Lady Gaga is a man, but she sure does look like one.

Tested with over 700 pounds of pressure, this is perhaps the strongest chain lock in the industry, and will keep you safe from any size of intruder, especially now that Subway’s Jared has lost all that weight. Best of all, it boasts a rather complicated set of labyrinthine grooves along its faceplate that force one to navigate the maze in order to gain freedom from you as you demonstrate your impressions of the Jersey Shore characters.

Classic Beer Glass Connoisseur Collection

Classic Beer Glass Connoisseur Collection will run you just $35, and for that paltry sum, you’ll get four different types of glassware for your favorite brew. Doesn’t matter if you’re drinking Pilsner, Imperial, Belgian, or Wheat, you’ll have the perfect venue for it. On top of that, the set also comes with a beer journal.

(That’s the “33 Bottles of Beer” book you see with all that yummy brew.)

Now you can not only add to the flavor of your favorite brew each time that you indulge, but you can also keep your very own listing of the best (and the worst) beers you’ve ever tasted. Finally a memento to keep us away from crap when we’ve had too much–that is, if you can still see straight enough to read by that point. And while we’re on the subject of brewskis, did you know that scientists found traces of female hormones in them the other day? Stop me if you’ve heard this one before…

World of Warcraft: Cataclysm

Say goodbye to your day jobs, because World of Warcraft: Cataclysm promises to take the series in a new and altogether frightening direction for those of you who thought peace had at last come to the kingdom of Azeroth. Awaking from his unholy rest, Deathwing the Destroyer has come back to retake the land, and the Horde and the Alliance must race to stop a cataclysm of biblical proportions.

The Horde has their goblins and the Alliance has their worgen. This time around, you can join the adventure as either of these two races. Improve your characters with a new level cap of up to 85. Experience familiar zones in not so familiar situations for a fresher gaming experience that is filled with new content and disastrous consequences. In addition to these, you can also experience a new realm of lands including an undersea kingdom. More raid content, new race/class combos, and various guild advancements are just a few of the bonuses that this new version of WoW brings to the foreground. Archaeology features and flying mounts allow you to explore the realm of Azeroth both below and above the earth for a wide range of achievements, artifacts, and unique rewards.

Boasting diverse player-vs.-player action, you can quest for yourself or against/with the minions of WoW fans, who like you have had enough of bitchy bosses and “better halves.”

X-Mini Capsule Speakers

That’s right, it’s a new installment of “Yet Another Portable Speaker”. However, this one is about the size of a peach and is entirely self contained. Lasting up to 12 hours, the X-Mini is a small pod that sits on your desk and pumps out clear highs and thumping bass thanks to 40mm drivers and the Bass Xpansion System, respectively.

Using the built-in “buddy jack”, you can also link up multiple X-Minis for a seriously amplified sound and a desk that looks like something out of the Matrix. Travel speakers come and go, but judging by the size and versatility of the X-Mini system, this won’t be going anywhere except in your laptop bag.

50 Cars To Drive

Chances are you’re not a member of the Hilton family, and your lemonade stand isn’t getting much attention in the venture capitalist arena… but all men can dream. And the motivation behind those dreams likely have something to do with driving around in a ridiculously expensive ride.

50 Cars To Drive by Dennis Adler interviews a variety of famous and prestigious car enthusiasts, such as Jay Leno, and asks them to select a list of cars that every man should drive before they get to the end of the road. Not only will you hear from those who have actually had the privilege of driving these 50 cars, but you’ll also find full-color photography in this 256-page book. Wondering what sort of cars you can expect to see on the list? Here’s the top five:

1957 Ferrari Testa Rossa
1913 Mercer Raceabout
1932–37 Model SJ Dusenberg
Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR
Maserati Birdcage

As Adler puts it, “50 Cars to Drive is the next best thing to a test drive.”

NBA Jam for Wii

NBA Jam, the quarter-chewing franchise from arcades of yore is back on the Wii, and in the spirit of the Xbox 360′s Tecmo Bowl update, fans can expect the same great gameplay in a refreshingly stripped down and classic style that doesn’t force you to learn the game inside and out in order to have fun.

NBA Jam was always the kind of game, featuring 2-on-2 basketball action, where players of all races, creeds, and genders could get together and play at parties, trash-talking and hand-slapping all the way to victory. Now it’s back with updated graphics that don’t sacrifice what made Jam popular in the first place. Thank EA Sports for this one, kiddies. And let the games begin!
