SkyWalker 12 Foot Tall Bicycles: Soon To Be Seen in No Libs
Brad Graham, a man that obviously loves his bikes, has invented the SkyWalker, a twelve foot tall bicycle… and it actually works. You’ll have to lean it against something, scale the ladder, and go.
I wonder when the dudes at Trophy Bikes are going to start carrying these.

Welcome To The Blogroll: Halo 3 Screenshots
Every once and a while, I come across a new website that makes me kick myself in the ass for not thinking of it first. Halo 3 Screenshots… yeah, definitely one of them. It’s a blog that collects… well, screenshots from Halo 3.
Oh hai!

Star Wars Mighty Muggs
Hasbro is releasing their own line of vinyl toys, Mighty Muggs, and they’ve got some pretty cute looking figures lined up. Marvel characters, Indiana Jones, and of course, Star Wars, are all thrown into the mix. I know a certain social media guru who is going to want the Chewy figure.

John McClane: Geekadelphia’s Choice For President
If there is one thing Die Hard movies have taught me, it’s that Bruce Willis is indestructible. In the latest film, he drove a car down an elevator shaft, blew up a helicopter with a police car, and jumped onto an F15 fighter jet… which he then blew up, along with a semitrailer and [...]

Cybger Gadget will be releasing some lovable Nintendo DS Lite system cases in December, featuring the faces of two characters from the children’s show Gachapin.

100% real picture after the [...]
Letterman’s Top 10 via Battlestar Galactica
On March 19th, David Letterman will have 10 cast members from Battlestar Galactica present the Top 10 List. The Underwire wanted to figure out what sort of list it will be… and “Best Places to Frack” would be especially entertaining coming from Edward James Olmos (Admiral Adama). Honestly, I just want to watch [...]

Stephen Colbert exudes “truthiness” in WoW:TCG
…Or so we had hoped. At least I did. OK so this is news to me…give me a break. I don’t exactly stay on top of World of Warcraft: The Trading Card Game news… but this happens to be something worth discussing.
Here’s how it went down. Upper Deck hired Todd Lockwood [...]
