For The Kids: S.O.S. Sinking Bowl

Filed under: Design, Household

I suppose kids would generally enjoy this more than adults but I sure as hell love the idea that this bowl is running with. The S.O.S. bowl features half of a plane or ship molded to the bottom of the bowl so that when you pour your cereal or soup in, it gives off the illusion of a sinking ship. Pretty clever, eh?

My Wife Left Me Because Of My Cardboard Star Trek Models

Filed under: DIYs, Design

I thought I was really into Star Trek.  I have every episode from the original series and TNG as well as many articles of clothing and a beer bottle opener shaped like the Enterprise.  However, Bob Prior’s passion and fanboy-ism for Star Trek far surpasses my own.  He’s created Star Trek replicas from Rice Krispies boxes. From Kirk to Picard, Spock to LaForge, Bob has created over 50 models which include the Starship Enterprise, its command bridge and captains James T. Kirk and Jean-Luc Picard. The funniest part of the whole thing is that his wife hates the show but has been putting up with his obsession all these years.

Says Bob:

“I’ve made models from the start – right through Deep Space Nine, Voyager and the films up to First Contact.”

Deep Space Nine? Ew! Now I know for sure he’s suffering from dementia.
