Summer is here, and we're looking to get out of the SkyMall Monday headquarters to enjoy some sun, sand and surf. But, well, as I've discussed in this space before, I'm not exactly winning a hot body contest anytime soon. Thankfully, our favorite ...Click on a label to read posts from that part of the world.

Jun 29th, 2009 at 1:00PM:
Welcome to a very special edition of SkyMall Monday. For the first time in the illustrious history this series, I can provide you with a first-hand, hands-on, handy review of a SkyMall product. This may shock and/or amaze you, but I don't actually test the products that I review in this space. I know, I know. It seems disingenuous. But you'd be surprised how well you can understand a product ...SkyMall Monday: Stealth Secret Sound Amplifier
Jun 15th, 2009 at 1:00PM: We all want to look cool. Cool looking people are just, well, cooler than regular people. Sadly, as we get older, it becomes harder to look cool. Unless you're Sean Connery, who is just a cool old man. But I digress. Here at SkyMall Monday, it's important that we always look cool and help you do the same. So, as you age and your faculties begin to fail you, fear not. Our favorite catalog is there ...SkyMall Monday: Chatter Talking Pet Bowl
Jun 8th, 2009 at 1:00PM: Sadly, there are no pets in the SkyMall Monday headquarters. I travel too much to have a dog and cats are just terrible. I had a turtle once, but I had to get rid of him when I discovered that he was anti-Semitic. But I know plenty of pet owners and they always feel terrible when they have to leave their animals home alone. They always worry that their pets will be lonely or miss them so much that ...SkyMall Monday: Box of Applause
Jun 1st, 2009 at 1:00PM: You may be shocked to learn that I live in the SkyMall Monday HQ alone. There is no Mrs. SkyMall Monday. And, as difficult as this may be for you to believe, I demand a lot of attention. I need constant reassurance. That's why I rely so heavily on SkyMall to get me through life. Because, while your friends and family may let you down over and over again, SkyMall will always be there to make you ...SkyMall Monday: Wine Glass Holder Necklace
May 25th, 2009 at 1:00PM: I like to drink. There's nothing wrong with that. Many of us enjoy a drink or six from time to time. But I also like to eat. When I'm at a cocktail party or a bar, I'm sure to be found enjoying some hors d'oeuvres or or a rack of ribs. And I love to meet new people. There's nothing more enjoyable than mingling with a crowd and doing elaborately choreographed handshakes with new friends. But, well, ...SkyMall Monday: An Interview with SkyMall CEO Christine Aguilera
May 18th, 2009 at 1:00PM: We're doing something a little different for SkyMall Monday this week. There will be no review of an amazing and much-needed SkyMall product. Instead, I am pleased to share with you my interview with the CEO of Skymall, Christine Aguilera. Ms. Aguilera was kind enough to answer my questions despite the fact that she is familiar with SkyMall Monday and reads my reviews. In fact, she admitted to ...One town doesn't want tourists for Memorial Day
May 15th, 2009 at 10:30AM: If you're a tourist, Ithaca, in the Finger Lakes region of New York, doesn't want you--at least not for Memorial Day. It's not a snob thing. It's not that the town wants people who live there to enjoy backyard barbeque's and parades in peace without strangers--you know, outsider types--from stopping them to ask for directions or take up their parking spots.
Actually, parking spots have something ...SkyMall Monday: Fun Friends Phone Covers
May 11th, 2009 at 1:00PM: Technology keeps getting smaller and smaller. Televisions are ultra-thin, netbooks let people compute on the go, and, of course, cell phones have gotten downright minuscule. But not all small things are cute. Just ask my ex-girlfriends. Zing! I kid. Seriously, though, we all want our gadgets to convenient and cool-looking. That's why I've clean the SkyMall Monday headquarters with Hello Kitty ...SkyMall Monday: Deluxe Prism Glasses
May 4th, 2009 at 1:00PM: I love to read. Nothing beats relaxing in the SkyMall Monday headquarters curled up in my Slanket while reading my favorite catalog. But reading involves so much effort. First I have to pick up the catalog (back strain alert!). Then I have to recline in my chair or bed (argh!). And finally, I have to tilt my head to see the page! Tilt my head!? Do you think I can just tilt my head for long ...SkyMall Monday: Basho the Sumo Wrestler Table
Apr 27th, 2009 at 1:00PM: Home decorating is never easy. You want to show off your personality, but you don't want to force it. You want your home to be a reflection of who you are but also an oasis from the rest of your life. With so many styles and motifs from which to choose, it can be overwhelming. Well, that's why you read SkyMall Monday. Nothing simplifies our lives like our favorite catalog. And now you can show off ...SkyMall Monday: Night Sweat Alarm
Apr 20th, 2009 at 1:00PM: I love sleeping. After a long night of testing fabulous SkyMall products, I like to retire to the SkyMall Monday domestic headquarters, curl up with the catalog and fall asleep with my best buddy. I sleep like a log. But, not everyone is so lucky. Some people are startled awake every night by an awful sensation. It happens involuntarily. It's embarrassing. It's damp. They wet the bed...with their ...SkyMall Monday: Personalized Hot Buns Dish & Your Kickasserole Dish
Apr 13th, 2009 at 1:00PM:
We've discussed in the past how much I love to cook in the SkyMall Monday kitchen. In fact, it's starting to dominate the SkyMall Monday posts, what with the pizza, hot dog, pepper grinder and paper towel products that we've featured. I just can't help it. I travel a lot, so when I'm home I like the comfort of good food and friends. In fact, my favorite activity in between travels is a good ...SkyMall Monday: Towel-Matic
Apr 6th, 2009 at 1:00PM: I love to cook. Whether it's pizza, hot dogs or well-seasoned steaks, I kick up quite a storm in the SkyMall Monday kitchen. But you can't even begin to imagine the mess that I make. Most of my kitchen adventures result in me being covered in mayonnaise and bleeding profusely. With my hands full of salamis and Rocky Mountain oysters, I have a hard time tearing off sheets of paper towel. The roll ...SkyMall Monday: Pizza Pro
Mar 30th, 2009 at 2:15PM: Here at SkyMall Monday, we are always looking to make life simpler. The world is such a difficult and challenging place. But thankfully our favorite catalog tells us what our problems are and then solves them. This week, we tackle the impossible feat of serving pizza. Too often we make our own pizzas at home and then can't slice them. Who has a pizza cutter? Or knives? And how do they expect you ...SkyMall Monday: Full Color Photo Throw
Mar 23rd, 2009 at 1:00PM: You love your family. You love to visit them, speak to them on the phone and keep photos of them around your home. That's what you do when you love people and want to keep them close. But what if you really need to keep them close? What if you really need to express your love and devotion to them? You only have so many kidneys to give. Well, thankfully, SkyMall Monday is back to help you help ...SkyMall Monday: Gear Shift Madness!
Mar 16th, 2009 at 1:00PM: SkyMall Monday loves cars. Sure. the SkyMall Monday headquarters is my studio apartment in New York City and I don't own a car because I take subways everywhere, but still, cars are neat. Don't you wish that everything you owned was designed like a car? Cars are just so perfect and amazing and cool. They're so much more amazing than our boring household items. Thankfully, the good folks at SkyMall ...SkyMall Monday: Head Spa Massager
Mar 9th, 2009 at 1:00PM: SkyMall Monday understands that we all have stress. Between our jobs, families and monkey attacks, the world can be an overwhelming place. You need to find ways to relieve the tension that life creates before it puts your health at risk. Sure, you could turn to alcohol or drugs, but that's expensive. You could call a hooker, but that's probably expensive, too (and if you keep it cheap, it's ...SkyMall Monday: Electric Travel Blanket
Mar 2nd, 2009 at 1:00PM: Here at SkyMall Monday, we realize that SkyMall's popularity is based on our desire to let technology solve all of our problems. Hungry? Cook a hot dog. Hit your child? Stop the bleeding. But what about when you're in the car with your spouse and the air conditioning has made you uncomfortably cold? Sure, you could politely ask him to adjust the settings to warm you up but that would require you ...SkyMall Monday: Comfort-U Pillow
Feb 23rd, 2009 at 1:00PM: Imagine this romantic evening: You dine by candlelight. Roses fill the room with the pungent aroma of love. Afterward, you slip into your sexiest lingerie and surround yourself with silky rose petals. It's time to turn off the lights and get busy with your special someone, right? Well, only if you have a special someone. Why can't you have this romantic evening all by your lonesome? Why do you ...
