I know plenty of people who are having babies around this time of year. Announcements, I imagine, are one of the more fun parts of a pregnancy. Well, at least if they are cards that look this nice, then it would be fun. TinyPrints.com has all kinds of great baby announcements, and even plenty for twins, if you’re so lucky!
I caught a bit of that show Jon and Kate Plus 8 the other day. I can’t imagine having twinners and then being blessed with a six pack of children, all at once! Crazy stuff. So yeah, if you’re the lucky soon-to-be parent of twins, check out these announcements!
Announce in style here.
I got this (along with a couple other things) for my Father at Christmas. He is quite the spork enthusiast, and really, it doesn’t get any better than a titanium spork. He loved it. I’m not sure if he still uses it, as that was well over a year ago now, but I tell you what, I’m sure it’s still in pristine condition!
Now, why a titanium spork you ask? I say why not! Most sporks are wonderfully convenient, but terribly flimsy. And most often, they still have little plastic seams left on the edges to cut your lip, ouch! This titanium spork is smoothly crafted into a perfectly gentle, but sturdy, large sized spork. Really, the thing is big, see that image there? It’s even bigger in real life! It measures 6 1/4 inches long and 1 1/2 inches wide. Go measure one of your spoons, probably nowhere near that size.
One last thought about a spork, that I took from my Father: Why not call it a foon?

The classic Princess Leia poster. For all Star Wars fans, and anybody who appreciates good old beauty…circa 1970′s George Lucas future style…or something.
You really can’t go wrong getting this poster for any guy who is into Star Wars, or movies, or just plain old interested in attractive women! Carrie Fisher was at her best as Princess Leia, and there really isn’t a whole lot more to say about it. If you don’t know who Princess Leia is, I’m sorry, you’ve obviously been in seclusion for a few decades. Welcome to the world, go watch Star Wars.
The poster measures 36″ x 24″ and will put a smile on the face of a cubicle slave every day. I categorized this as “Tech Stuff” because any techie will appreciate Leia watching him do his thing.

If you haven’t seen The Big Lebowski (and don’t mind moderate to heavy levels of crudeness), you should do yourself a favor and pick this up. This is such a fine movie, well written and acted out perfectly.
I’ve checked this out a bit, and it appears as though the “Limited Edition” part of this doesn’t so much have anything to do with the content, but more with the packaging, which I think is brilliant. Word is there are a few interviews with the cast, but nothing too special. All that’s okay though, if you’re like me and have been telling yourself that you need to own this movie, now is the time. And of course, if you already own it, buy this version for a friend and leave the mark of The Dude on their shelf for all to see!

Make those road trips fun! There are a bunch of good old riding-in-the-car games that make tiresome drives more entertaining. This happens to be one with nice looking playing cards and all that jive.
Mark off things seen on the side of the road. Buildings, animals, and all kinds of things. Perfect for families driving to Grandma’s house over the river and through the woods!

Give somebody a gift that looks like you stole from a giant! These gigantic ipod-style earbud speakers are claimed to be 500 times the size of the headphones that come with ipods. 500 times!
The speakers connect to the non-giant’s computer via USB cable and have their own built-in amplifier. There’s no fancy stand or anything, but they will lay there on a desk looking great. Sure to start up a conversation anytime somebody glances at them for the first time.
So if you know a mac lover who would love to have their earbuds in all day, but can’t due to work regulations, get them the oversized earbuds so they can get their fix.

Turn anybody Irish for as long as this amazing breath spray stays in effect! Here’s the official description:
Paddy O’Connell’s Instant Irish Accent Breath Spray radically changes the way you speak. Works instantly. One quick spritz activates invisible language receptors in the mouth. Fresh on the tongue like the mists off the cliffs of Moher!
It’s pretty much the greatest spray ever made.

This gift would pretty much set the bar for coolest cubicle in the whole office. It’s a functioning Venus fly trap. Crazy stuff!
The pod has a motion detector that will close when it senses a bug (or finger I suppose) and snaps shut. It’s cupped so that the bug won’t be squished. That means you can check the little dude out before you do whatever else it is you’d like to do with the prisoner.
At first I thought this was just a little toy, but it’s pretty good sized. It weighs a full pound and is 9 inches tall. This is a pretty serious bug catcher, and it’s pretty cheap too! So give this as a gift to somebody who likes to play a little while they’re at work. They’ll be the popular person for the week at work for sure!

Give this year’s Easter a personal touch with these personalized Easter baskets. As you may see in that picture, they are available in pink or blue.
As the baskets are all fabric, and soft fabric at that, they’re nice and soft and perfect for children to tote around with them while smearing chocolate all over their faces and attaining sugar rushes. Much safer than wicker! As with everything else at PersonalizationMall.com, the custom name embroidery is included at no extra cost.
