It’ll be tough to hear the screams of “Lookout!†while rocking to the dulcet tunes of Axl Rose belt out Paradise City. At least your iPod won’t end up ruined when the avalanche hits since you’re using the iS2 H2O Audio Waterproof Case. It’s only $40 for the 2nd generation Shuffle case, but you have to buy special headphones, which cost another $40. They make the system completely waterproof so you can to listen to music instead of your friend’s footsteps while they probe the snow for your oxygen-deprived body. If they rescue you, you’ll be able to wear your Shuffle into the hot tub, and if they don’t, well, some lucky hiker will get your mint-condition iPod in spring.

Here’s a fun little reminder of the effects of driving your bright yellow Hummer to work today. The Global Warming Heat Sensitive Mug changes its graphics when you add hot water to make the glacier look like it’s melting into a tidal wave that will create beach-front property in Michigan. It’ll be a nice cup for drinking my bottled water around those huge campfires I always build.

Even if every human in the world has access to clean drinking water it still wouldn’t be okay to sell bottled water for dogs. Amery Beverages of New England is selling Woof Water because they say, “the towns that have heavily chlorinated water, the dogs just won’t drink it.†Maybe if we weren’t pouring tons of chemicals and waste into the environment—say waste from something as insanely stupid as the bottled water for dogs industry—then maybe we wouldn’t have to worry about shit in our tap water.

Theoretically, you could never have to take off your head protection if you get the Adidas Burna Goggles and Bern’s Macon Helmet. They’re both year-round pieces of gear that are great for people with KFC-style wages who want to stretch their money across skiing and cycling. The Adidas Burna is their first year-round goggle with tear-away lens sheets for cycling. The goggles come with 18 vents and an anti-fog lens coating, so they’re impossible to fog up until you pack them with snow after a couple face plants.

I read somewhere on the internet that the Zombie threat level was raised to “orange†today. The importance of Zombie preparedness can’t be ignored in the backcountry. This guy has his Emergency Zombie Defense Station with a shield, machete, and shotgun. You could drop the word “Emergency†from the title since it’s implied in the idea of Zombies—it’d be like calling a fire alarm an Emergency Fire Alarm. Either way, stay safe out there tonight, or you could end up like this still-alive zombie in Germany who was mistaken for a train-riding corpse.
