Skymall Monday

SkyMall Monday: Obol

SkyMall Monday: Obol There's a time and a place for mushy foods. Not having to chew comes in handy when you've had your wisdom teeth pulled, your jaw wired shut or you've misplaced your dentures. Beyond that, the sensation of chewing is part of the enjoyment of eating. People want to feel ...

SkyMall Monday: Is the tugo rolling luggage drink holder clever or idiotic?

SkyMall Monday: Is the tugo rolling luggage drink holder clever or idiotic? I typically have very firm feelings about a SkyMall product. I either love it with all of my heart or hate it with a fiery passion. We're not shy with our opinions here at SkyMall Monday headquarters. So, you can imagine how I feel this week when, well, I'm not sure what to ...

SkyMall Monday: Protein Ketchup

SkyMall Monday: Protein Ketchup The other day, while relaxing in SkyMall Monday headquarters, I was about to enjoy a juicy hamburger with some french fries when an alarm went off in my brain. I realized that a burger and fries was not a very nutritious meal. Here I am, trying to get in shape for my wedding ...

SkyMall Monday: Create a SkyMall product, earn a $1 million investment

SkyMall Monday: Create a SkyMall product, earn a $1 million investment How often do you flip through the SkyMall catalog and think to yourself, "I could have created that"? If you're like me, you do that every single time you read it. For all of the jokes we make at SkyMall's expense, it is a lucrative business and many of those zany inventions ...

SkyMall Monday: Large Universal Skate Sail (the worst SkyMall product ever?)

SkyMall Monday: Large Universal Skate Sail (the worst SkyMall product ever?) I want to love every SkyMall product. I mean, they're all so gosh darn loveable. And, like the infomercials that you see when you can't fall asleep, the descriptions of each gadget in SkyMall lead you to believe that they're the greatest thing since the Edge Brownie Pan. ...

SkyMall Monday: StarScreen Social Backdrops

SkyMall Monday: StarScreen Social Backdrops Working from home is dramatically different from working in an office. For one, those of us who work from home rarely put on pants. Beyond that, we often spend most of our time alone, sitting at our makeshift, on our couches or even laying in our beds in front of our ...

SkyMall Monday: Sit Fit Exercise Device

SkyMall Monday: Sit Fit Exercise Device Now more than ever, we all spend way too much time at our desks staring at computers. That means that we have less time for long walks, brisk jogs and other aerobic exercise. All of this leads to weight gain, diminishing health and lazy lifestyles. With winter just around ...

SkyMall Monday: Anniversary Gifts

SkyMall Monday: Anniversary Gifts Last week, my fiancée and I celebrated our two-year anniversary. We met and went out on our first date on the same day (I work fast). We're getting married next Spring, so we'll soon have a new anniversary to celebrate. Do we stop celebrating our initial anniversary ...

SkyMall Monday: InstaCloth & the horrible videos it inspires

SkyMall Monday: InstaCloth & the horrible videos it inspires I've written about hundreds of SkyMall products and probably looked at thousands over the years. Lately, however, I've also been scouring YouTube for videos of the products. You see, I find video demonstrations of SkyMall products to be mesmerizingly awful. Never, though, ...

SkyMall Monday: Personal Infrared Sauna

SkyMall Monday: Personal Infrared Sauna Ah, Labor Day. It's a day to honor the hard work of the people who make America strong and stuff the last few hot dogs of summer down our gullets. After months spent baking in the sun and indulging in fried items on sticks at state fairs, our skin is tight and our bodies are ...

SkyMall Monday: Top 5 products for hurricane season

SkyMall Monday: Top 5 products for hurricane season Here on the East Coast, Hurricane Irene made for quite the weekend. First, we braved the hordes of crazy people in the supermarket (no one needs that much peanut butter), then the torrential rains and, more than anything, the constant barrage of media hype. Thankfully, we're ...

SkyMall Monday: Beamz Interactive Music System

You simply don't hear very many people complaining about the lack of new instruments being invented. Basically, since we electrified the guitar, we've been set with all of the instruments that humanity needs. Granted, converting turntables from music players to music ...

SkyMall Monday: Touchless Sensor Toilet Seats

SkyMall Monday: Touchless Sensor Toilet Seats Once SkyMall Monday headquarters became a den of premarital cohabitation, I was forced to learn the fine art of leaving the toilet seat down. It seems that women urinate while seated and, should the seat be up when they attempt to sit, they can fall into the bowl. As ...

SkyMall Monday: Magic Derriere Enhancing Panty vs. Clothing Shields

SkyMall Monday: Magic Derriere Enhancing Panty vs. Clothing Shields We all have our own body issues. For some, they wish they were thinner. For others, acne causes constant embarrassment. However, two issues stand out as the most traumatizing: small butts and excessive sweating. Flat-butted women have long suffered from Droopy Pants ...

SkyMall Monday: You Go Girl!

SkyMall Monday: You Go Girl! Going to the bathroom on planes is never pleasant. In fact, doing your business anywhere in public can be nerve-wracking. Many public restrooms smell unpleasant and are filthy. Beyond that, there's the embarrassment caused by the sounds emanating from our behinds and the ...

SkyMall Monday: SunCap Hat

SkyMall Monday: SunCap Hat Sure, it's nice to look a little bronzed in the summer. Who doesn't enjoy being just a bit "sun-kissed" when they're showing off more skin in the hot weather? However, the sun is a fickle bitch-goddess and things can go from tan to burnt quicker than you can say SPF. It's ...

SkyMall Monday: GermBana Face Gator, Gloves & Scarf

SkyMall Monday: GermBana Face Gator, Gloves & Scarf Just because it's summer doesn't mean that you can't get sick. While we associate the flu and other ailments with winter, summer colds are common and can derail our warm weather wackiness. Travel, of course, is always germ-laden but you don't need to venture that far from ...

SkyMall Monday: Top 5 places to sleep with the Pillow Tie

SkyMall Monday: Top 5 places to sleep with the Pillow Tie Life is full of boring events. Our parents, spouses and religious leaders constantly drag us to occasions that are beyond dull. With hundreds of cable channels, air conditioning and beer easily accessible in our own homes, why do we need to go anywhere? Heck, we can have all ...

SkyMall Monday: Remote Control Beverage Cooler

SkyMall Monday: Remote Control Beverage Cooler Summer's here and it's time to kick back by the pool with some ice cold drinks. The problem with spending time outside, however, is that you end up far away from your refrigerator. How is one supposed to keep himself refreshed when all of the Zima is chilling in the kitchen ...

SkyMall Monday: Jeans Lounge Pants

SkyMall Monday: Jeans Lounge Pants I've never understood people who relax in their homes while wearing jeans. First of all, denim is not all that comfortable. Second, most people don't wash their jeans frequently, meaning that they're wearing filthy clothes on their couches and beds. And third, in the summer, ...
