Rugged PS3 Can Withstand War Zones

No kidding.  This PS3 was “ruggedized” for use in Afgahnistan.  I have a soft spot for DIY projects and video games.  Now if you add to that the fact that I’m a military brat, this thing kinda steals my heart.  Realistically, what tough guy doesn’t want a video game system …

If there are two movies that I feel are absolutely appropriate for this time of year, they would be Nightmare on Elm Street and Nightmare Before Christmas.  This Living Dead Doll brings back all the original holiday fear of Kreuger’s 1984 debut.  Okay — so the original Nightmare on Elm …

Skeleton Safe: More Expensive Than What You Can Put In It

The Skeleton Safe is incredibly cool looking – and for a reason. It’s been refurbished and restored beyond its original awesomeness.
