FINALLY caught up on my RSS business.
Anyway, some pretty snazzy stuff here:
Charlie's Soap
Yep, another hippie product. But considering how economical it is as well, you really can't go wrong with something like this. I've heard their laundry soap is particularly effective.
10 Must-Have Home Supplies
For anyone who has their own place, this is a good list of items to make sure you have stored away under the sink.
The Eating Tree
Having a dinner between you and your date? Here's a cute idea for dessert or snacking!
Dressers in the Living Room
I know this can be tacky as hell, but when furniture pricing can be pretty wacky, or if you just happen to have access to some older furniture, this is a pretty good idea, especially if you're a boardgame-playing geek like myself. Storage space can be a premium. Invest wisely!
Alright. Time for some shut-eye...

So yeah. I fell behind on my RSS feed again. 350+ pages. Yeah.
USB EVERYTHING key fob
Yep. Just as it says, and it is that awesome.

Ambient Office Lighting
After seeing this in my RSS feed, I couldn't help but post this up. SO awesome.
New Office Lighting!
Kickass!

Any Collectors Out There Need Some Cleaning Tips?
Yep. It's me; blogging about other blogs.
This, however, speaks a lot to me, seeing as I need to clean up my toy soldier collection.
Keep Your Collectables Clean
A lot of self-explanatory stuff here, but it's always good to see this stuff in list form again.

Only 2 Posts Tonight...Not Bad...
Huh. That wasn't as bad as I thought it would be...
Override Admin Access Issues in Windows
I haven't encountered this problem too often, though it always helps to know how to tackle an obstacle ahead of time...
Caramel Popcorn and Hot Sauce. It tastes as Epic as it sounds.
I want to try this so badly, so long as peanuts aren't involved.
Modern-day Mix Tape, Without a CD
Nice and trendy alternative to the mix-CD, while making use of some of those old tape cassettes.
Propoganda Video Game Posters. Win.
I DEFINITELY want to get a few of these for my next place...
BlueLounge Design
This entry is all about a design company that specializes in tech-friendly stuff. Worth a look, it seems.
Improvized Soup Spoon.
Eat your heart out, MacGuyver.
Alright then. Goodnight everyone!

Some Snazzy Articles
Yep. I'm at it again.
Money-saving light bulbs
Seeing as how everyone enjoys having some light sources in their life, this is one way you can have your light, and enjoy it too, with as little impact against your utility bill as possible.
Eating some lunch at work? Use a spare coffee filter!
A rather random tip that seems to be a lot cooler when you think about it, this article points out to use a spare coffee filter as an ad-hoc plate for your food. There's also an attached link for making a reusable pouch for foods.
DC Comics to do Kane and Lynch. Win to follow.
I'm not a huge DC fan per se, but if they're going to make a comic series based on Kane and Lynch, they've got my vote of approval.
Gentlemen: BEHOLD!
Make a cannon the size of half your pinky. I s*** you not.
Green Trash Bags. About time.
Two things that tend not to go together. Biodegradable trash bags. It's about time people started making these things...
Reusable plastic wrap alternative
...and while we're on this subject, here's something to use other than wasting more plastic. Awesome.
I'm sure there's more to follow. I'm just following up on my 2-day neglected RSS feed, which means I'll be here for a while...

Nomad Furniture and Zinfadel Burgers
Alright; this should be the last post of the night. My RSS feed kills my spare time.
Anyway, found some interesting things online so far.
Zinfadel Burgers. Already sounds EPIC.
The concept of kobe burgers blew my mind when I first heard of it ages ago. And now someone thought to braise them in Zinfadel. It's the simple things in life you treasure, my friends.
The Concepts and Philosophy of Nomad Furniture
Despite my current situation as someone on the knife-edge of semi-independent college living and full-blown adulthood, a 'nomad' lifestyle is a bit out of reach. The lifestyle choices I have made thus far, have said otherwise. The fact that someone has actually explained this sort of philosophy in the means of philosophy and furniture-making is pretty awesome. It speaks volumes to me, really.
Alright, my friends. Sleep well.

Anyone Care to Join the Gamers' Tea Party With Me?
So yeah. EA is starting to suck again.
EA to charge gamers $10 to play used games online. W.T.F.
Yeah.
EA to charge gamers $10 to play used games online. W.T.F.
"If you trade the game in and someone else buys it they won’t be able to play online without buying a new Online Pass. The cost will be $10 direct to EA. To help you decide whether the Online Pass is worth the cost EA will offer a 7-day free trial of online play for your used game, but after that the $10 payment is required."
Yeah.
That's Right.
Hello again...anyone who actually reads my blog.
Anyway, one of the biggest things I will always support is recycling. I know; I'm a hippie. However, there are plenty of things laying around your home that can be recycled that you may previously think wouldn't be possible. There's always a solution for people these days, and Apartment Therapy definitely brings some solutions to light.
Recycling the Hard to Recycle
This world isn't going to fix itself, guys! Let's get to it!

"If you are in the midst of a spring clean, chances are you'll find several items that have outgrown their usefulness. Recycling some things can get a bit confusing. Here are a couple resources that will point you in the right direction to a cleaner house and a clearer conscience."

Some VERY Interesting Finds
I know I'm a dirty re-blogger, but at the same time, some of these things are just plain interesting in my mind. Here's a few of what I've found:
Ubuntu Light
Seeing as how I'm currently using a slowly-falling-apart last-gen laptop my mother handed down to me when she got her new Aspire One, a fast-booting, cloud-powered OS that doesn't burn through my battery always looks good (I TOTALLY abused the hyphen there...).
The Sandwich of Monte Cristo
Essentially just a fancy term for a grilled ham & cheese sandwich, this recipe is undoubtedly one of the strangest recipes I've ever seen for a grilled sandwich. Still sounds pretty tasty though...
It's a Secret to Everyone
Apparently, everyone over at Instructables is having a competition for using paper coffee cups. For a trash monger like myself, something as deceptively simple as this looks pretty awesome. That, and I need a place to hid my snacks.
My Dream World
So yeah. Anyone who has honestly taken the time out of their day to get to know me knows something like this appeals to me greatly. I honestly wouldn't mind living like this. That's the one goal I wish to achieve when I finally get stuff squared away in my life. A man can dream...
Well, that'll do for now. Once the summer starts up, hopefully, I can start posting some of my own stuff!

Wait...what?
Just came across something particularly interesting through the Interwebs. Here's the synopsis:
That's right. Oatmeal in smoothies. Seeing as how I don't have the best of logistics right now, I won't be able to test this theory out until I'm back home. However, it still sounds rather intriguing.
Oatmeal Smoothies
Definitely hit up the link if you're interested. There's a bit of work behind the method. Let me know how it works out!
When we first stumbled across a reference to oatmeal in a smoothie recipe, all we could think of was gummy clumps of raw oats floating in our delicious smoothies - emphasis on "smooth." But then we realized that there's a very easy trick to getting it right, and the effort is well worth it!

A few ways to take care of that mess of keys you keep in your pocket
Now there's something you don't see everyday; a naked married couple underneath a dinosaur.
Arts and Crafts Organization; something I hold near and dear to me.
Atari lamp (been thinking about doing something similar to a Nintendo 64...)!
DIY cleaning products: cheap and effective!
Drunk door-locks, or for the clumsy...like myself.
Boom.

So...many...awesome...Internets...
Street Fighter fan film
Samsung's pretty external HDDs
Bacon-flavored syrup. I s%($ you not.
Wooden Castle blocks. I wish I had these when I was was a kid.
Put yourself and your friends in Star Wars. I geeked out a little.
WeTab: A possibly affordable iPad-killer?
Enjoy some more!

RSS Feed Share, Pt. 2
Seeing as that I have over 275 more pages to look over, there's going to be a lot of posts here. There are some pretty awesome ones here though:
This is when you know it's a bad day at work...
Eco-Friendly night lights. What? They're handy to have when you're stumbling to the bathroom late at night!
Simple and cheap web hosting
Some funky-looking camcorder-style still camera grips!
USB card speakers!
Not quite an RSS feed result, but if someone doesn't mind getting me an early birthday present, this book looks intriguing!
Upgrade Your Life
Enjoy these!

RSS Feed Share, Pt. 1
So I've been doing a horrible job keeping up on my RSS, even with the wonderful creation that is Google Reader. Even so, I've finally started catching up with some pretty awesome websites in the meantime. Here are some nice ones:
Need Motivation? Procrastinate a lot? Here's some cures!
Face your cleaning fears! Pay attention to the small spaces!
An awesome Korean tech creation!
Yoda watches you while you daydream...
Book Review of Legends of the SPESS MEHREHNS!
Enjoy!

Smart Guns?!
I need to start working on posting some original content...*sigh*
Anyway, here's something our troops might be using in the near-future:
The New XM-25 Individual Airburst 'Smart Gun'
The concept of this weapon sounds pretty awesome: an AI-controlled airburst grenade launcher for intelligent target dispatch. Quite an efficiently scary weapon, if you ask me!

My group has finally gotten a trailer together for our highly-anticipated movie! It looks pretty awesome, if I may say so myself!

So yeah; I like playing random computer games, especially those really quirky independent ones. Canabalt is a good example of one. Here's a link to geek.com, and their coverage on Canabalt's newest revision:

Holy Crap! A Double Post!
Hey guys, just ran into a few other websites promoting some green/designer tech. Figured these would be awesome.
Put A Fork Into Your USB Cables!
Now this looks pretty snazzy. I'm sure I could make something just as good with a plastic fork and a blob of plasticine, but this should give some of you crafty geeks something to work on!
Bamboo AND Renewable Energy? Nice...
LED bulbs? Always cool. LED ambient light alarm clock? Awesome. Crank AM/FM radio compatible with MP3 players? Even better! A few other gadgets on this line, AND they're all made of bamboo and biodegradable plastic? SWEET!
Alright, back to school work.

Ah...
With the end of the semester coming quick, I need to relax; take some time away from the books, and do the one thing I always love doing...be a geek.
Here are a few things I've spotted, thanks to the wonders of Google Reader:
USB Stick Gaming?
Everyone knows how much I love USB sticks. It beat the old system back at high school of toting a small box of 3.5 floppys around, which eventually evolved into a ZIP drive. Yeah; I was that hardcore of a geek.
Root Beer Floats...and Beyond!
Who said it was just a can of A&W and some ice cream? There's no school like the old school sometimes!
Dirt Cheap Storage Solutions
If anyone's looking to expand their storage in a new apartment, you may want to take a gander here for a few quick (and most importantly, cheap!) ideas to help out said problem. If I wasn't moving out in a few weeks, I'd jump on these myself!
Pomegranate Syrup!
Anyone who knows me knows I like 2 things when it comes to sweet food: Pomegranates and syrup-making. Alton Brown tells me I can combine the two. I will make this soon enough FOR GREAT JUSTICE.
Princess Leia Car Wash.
I love booty. Enough Said.
Here's hoping I can get some more of my OWN footage on this blog soon enough!
