Here’s something I “stumbled upon” earlier today and thought was kinda cool - a charity that lets you donate more than just your old clothes or trinkets. Car Angel allows you to donate your old car, boat, RV, or even a house or a plane (whoa) in order to help them further their cause of helping the homeless, supporting single mothers, and both treating and preventing drug addiction. One of the ways that they use your car donation is to help create anti-drug and educational children’s videos. Press play on the video below to see an example!
I could probably start a blog dedicated solely to ThinkGeek products, because I am so thoroughly obsessed with all the amazing items they sell. Take the USB Podcast Studio, for example - pure genius. Podcasting has become increasingly prevalent, to the point where everybody from Project Runway’s Tim Gunn to your neighbor down the street are recording their thoughts and sending them out into the universe.
Now you can make your podcasts even more worth listening to: you’ll get crystal-clear sound, studio-grade editing capabilities, and you can’t even pretend that talking into the professional mic won’t make you feel a whole lot cooler.
The studio includes a shock mounted desktop microphone, Cakewalk Sonar LE audio workstation software, aluminum carrying case, and retails for $169.99 at ThinkGeek.
I have two dogs and four cats, so scented candles and their air freshening ilk = must haves for my household. Hands-down, the BEST candles I’ve found so far are by For Every Body Candles, sold via Amazon. Not only are the candles tiny works of art, they have the greatest throw (read: you can actually smell them all over your house when you’re burning them) of any candle I’ve tried. They also last incredibly long; I was burning my first batch for a few months. With scents ranging from foody bakery scents to fresh, green garden smells, you’re sure to find one that piques your interest.For Every Body Candles range from $9.99 to $19.99 and come in a huge range of scents.
