Weekly Daily Giz Wiz, Week of 10/24/2011 Netcast 1337

Scary Halloween stuff via Think Geek

I like the description that’s on the Think Geek website for this scary device, so here it is in part: Do you have a noisy baby or one you feel may grow up to drink the blood of mortals? This Little Vampire Pacifier is the way to go. It features luscious red lips and a full set of teeth including sharp canines for sucking the blood of the living. Our lawyers say we must tell you that ThinkGeek is not responsible if your geekling grows up to be one of the undead (but we are grateful because that means they can be one of our customers for centuries!) It’s good for all ages, but prefer baby age though. The Little Vampire Pacifier gives your baby vampire fangs. Makes baby simultaneously quiet and awesome. If baby sparkles, feed to werewolves immediately and make a new baby. – And now back to me, The Giz Wiz. I don’t know what that “prefer baby age” is all about. I wore it quite a few times to meet people at the front door! And it wasn’t even Halloween yet! $4.99

Too lazy to carve your own Jack O'Lantern? Yes, it’s a chore picking the perfect pumpkin, and figuring out how to make it look scary. How about having an old-fashioned looking 8-Bit Jack O'Lantern this year? If you’re too young to remember, 8-bit images are low-res "boxy" or "pixilated images." Think early Atari, Nintendo, etc. games. The built-in LEDs light up giving it the flickering glow of a real Jack O'Lantern. The 8-Bit Jack O'Lantern won't make a delicious pie, but it will make your home a little more festive, and hopefully your tech friends a wee bit jealous! Crafted from durable EVA foam. Dimensions: 11" x 9.25" x 1.125". It run on 3 AAA batteries, which are not included. Normally $17.99, but just in time for Halloween, it’s on sale right now for $9.99 (As of 10/22/11)
