What People are Saying

"I just had to tell you that I love the Peekaru and so does my little Audrey. The first time we wore it, 5 separate people stopped me to ask what it was and where I got it and many others smiled and made comments about how cozy it looked. It's a big hit. Thanks for making it!"

I'm pretty sure this is the part where Skynet starts the war with humanity.

They can talk? Sorry, that was not on my list of grievances that I carry around with me about Apple products. I don't want H.A.L. here telling me not to listen to the Animal Collective because they aren't cool anymore. Oh, and the one drawback of the world's smallest MP3 player? It syncs to iTunes 8.1, which isn't available yet.

My Other Career Option

When I was a kid, I gave seriously consideration to the idea of working for Lego on a professional level. But then I found out that I'd have to get an Engineering degree, which conflicted with my childhood ambition of being a doctor/writer/lion tamer. I also discovered that Legoland- at the time - was located in Denmark. And, really, what does an 7-year-old living in Virginia know about the Nordic territories?

Anywho! I came across this article today courtesy of Fark.com. and now my dreams of working for the Lego corporation have been renewed. Engineering degree be damned!

I mean, seriously - HOW FRIGGIN' COOL ARE THESE BUSINESS CARDS??





LEGO Business Card

As if I needed another reason to think that working for LEGO would be the most awesome job imaginable, Alexander Kjerulf just blew my mind with these customized minifig business cards that LEGO employees get.

Lego_cardReportedly, LEGO even attempts to match an employee's features with their own minifigs. I think we've got a winner for the coolest business card ever. What kind of geeky business cards have you had? Let us know in the comments
