Sky Mallin'

A few weeks ago, my girlfriend and I took a nice vacation to New York City, this post isn't about that vacation, it's about being stuck on the tarmac at La Guardia for what seemed like forever, probably only 45 minutes or so. During that time, I flipped through the ever popular Sky Mall magazine that frequent travelers are undoubtedly familiar with. It occurred to me that while most of the products have justifiable use, many of them look so ridiculous that warranting their use in public could be embarrassing for the person, but hilarious for the on lookers. The courtesy wave presents the most ridiculous products I viewed in late June while waiting on La Guardia's tarmac. (Photos were taken from my camera phone, so I apologize for the clarity). Enjoy!



Practical? Maybe...Ridiculous? Yes. It's probably really comfortable, and I suppose if you're sleeping, you don't care what people think. An addition of a drool bucket would be nice. Looking at the shirt this guy's wearing, he really doesnt care about appearances. Buy at your own risk.



First of all, anything offered by a company named No!No! has to be suspicious. The product is intended to provide youth and lift your face, it also doubles as a great ski mask and is convenient for burn victims.



Power Lung. It comes in different colors! The courtesy wave asks that you do not use this in public, it's for own good. (this actually applies to all)



Do I really need to comment on this? The sales department at this company has to laugh every time one of these is purchased. For anyone that ever wanted to immortalize their pets, what better way than to stick a concrete statue of them in the lawn drinking out of a fountain. I really want to meet the people who buy this...on second thought, no I don't.



Honey, are you dead or is that really comfortable?



Ever wanted to fit in better at the office WHILE breathing better? Look no further. You're on your way to that promotion!



On the practical scale, this product is actually pretty high. I just love how the picture is presented with the tired business man lounging in his hotel room...the angle seems to be positioned precariously...lets hope he's working on that big presentation.



Keep you're children safe...OR...give Burglars easier access to your kids bedrooms. Matching robes not included.



Really great product for those creepy neighbors that are always looking your way..if anyone suspects anything, a quick shout out that you're just aerating your lawn (again) will put their minds at ease. Also spikes double as a weapon for passerby joggers that look suspicious.

That's it for now, I highly recommend the Sky Mall if you really need to pass the time, I just don't recommend buying anything.
