Memo Mountain is one of my new favorite office accessories. It’s a cork board that’s perfectly cut into the shape of a cute little mountain range. It can be mounted on your wall for you to stick all your pictures and notes on and magically leaves no sticky residue behind. But here’s the kicker:
Yup. The push pins are little trees! Dark green and light green push pins are included to decorate your entire mountain with a forest of pins. Brilliant!
This cool item makes the perfect gift, and since I’m a sappy guy, I’d probably include a little note with it as well.
Each cork board comes with 9 Fir Tree push pins and the back of the box can be used as the sky. But if you are hardcore like me, you just might want to paint your entire wall blue, because hey, why not.

This sound machine produces high-quality SFX most commonly found in popular cartoons. But personally, I enjoy using it to enhance my phone conversations during work conference calls.
There’s no feeling quite like the feeling when you tell everyone you’re about to walk down some stairs and then press the ‘crash, boom, boink and bang’ button as you stumble your way to the bottom.
And if they don’t express concern at first, they certainly will once they hear the birds circle around your head.
Get’s them every time. Suckers.
This super silly gadget comes with 16 uber famous cartoon sound effects and produces a really high-quality sound. And may I recommend saving it for those special occasions? Like telemarketers for example. *Pistol*

The newest materials used in waterproof gloves and socks are pretty rad. They let you do some pretty amazing things.
Can your gloves do this?
These look a lot like the gloves I got from the running room way back in the day. The grip is awesome, but having waterproof gloves has proved to be so useful. I can now catch whole Salmon with my hands and I don’t even get wet.
I do however smell like fish, but what else is new.
But really, imagine having a snowball fight and never ever getting cold and wet? Where were these when I was a kid? Jumping in puddles would have taken my childhood antics to a whole new level.
And with these socks, my daily attempts to walk on water just might prove to be sucessful. Look for me in the next episode of Ripley’s kids.

Being the plant guru that I am, I was happy to test out this cool gadget from Pieter Laga called Petal Drops, from Quirky.
It’s a plant inspired product that reinvents the funnel, turning your old containers into green “bottle plants”. There are 4 very useful leaves which catch the rain and provide ample nutrition (far superior than tap water) for your indoor plants.
Petal Drops will fit around any water bottle or pop bottle allowing you to re-use your containers and do your part to make the world a little greener.
If that wasn’t enough, this product is made in the USA entirely from corn, tapioca, wheat, and potato based polypropylene bio-resin. It feels like plastic, but magically, it isn’t. Right on!
