…It’s Things Thursday: Puppoose?

Puppoose

The Puppoose is “the most ergonomically designed, natural way to carry your pet. The luxuriously lightweight, soft fabric makes using this carrier a breeze! The Puppoose fits any small dog and any person! Its crocheted design has 4 holes at the base for the pet’s limbs, 4 adjustable straps to adjust the length, a neck cushion for your comfort, and a safety strap to ensure your pet’s security. Its hands-free convenience allows more quality time together!”

If you just read that and thought, “Wow, I’ve been trying to find more ways to spend quality time with my dog!” then maybe the Puppoose is for you, but then again, maybe you should check your sanity fluid at the next stop. I understand wanting to be close to your dog and all, but do these dogs look happy?

Despite my warnings, if this looks like the perfect gift for your furry friend, they’re $80 from Feel The Flo.

…It’s TGI Friday: Energyville?

Energyville

Energyville is Chevron’s SimCity clone that it hopes to use to educate consumers about the different ways that different forms of energy affect us.

Taking into account economic, environmental, and security issues, you must build a city to the best of your ability and see how your choices affect the people as time goes on.

It’s definitely an interesting concept, and ought to be good for a few hours of fun as you lean a bit about the environment, so I’m going to call it a win-win.

…Your handbags should be xposed?

Xposed

These Xposed HandBags might not get you though airport security any faster, but they will definitely get you noticed. Featuring X-ray prints that show everything you’d normally find tucked away in a bag, they also show hidden guns, brass knuckles, a bottle of Jack Daniels, and a spiked collar to give a little hint at your wilder side. Just make sure you know what to say when the FBI comes knocking.

…Locks are locked, but not secure?

Key Diagram

Engadget put together a thorough (and thoroughly controversial) column about security called The Lockdown: Locked, But Not Secure with the goal of “exposing the shoddy security you may depend on”. The first issue is bumping, and issue previously featured on DYH. The column presents a ton of information about locks, lock theory, and lock picking, and should be considered a must read for anyone interested in the topic.
