Speaking Of HandE Gadgets

Parents love to show off pictures of their kids, and why not-those little buggers are so cute! Often times, I have asked my coworkers to see pictures of their children. I notice that women often struggle to sort through the refuse in their purses and men rifle through their cluttered wallets in order to find their kid’s pics.
When it’s such a hassle to find your kid’s pictures, why even carry them around. And it’s not just pictures that people have difficulty finding. Admittedly, men have it easier, as there is less opportunity for things to become lost in a wallet or pocket. It’ll take some extra effort, however, to get your purse organized. I like to use purse inserts, which allow you to compartmentalize all of your belongings; you can even remove the entire insert when you want to transfer your things from one carryall to another.
Over the holiday weekend some buddies and I went to a cabin in the foothills of the Cascades for a few days of solitude and relaxation—at least that was the intention. Despite our intentions for rest and relaxation, most of the weekend was spent hiking, fishing and taking advantage of the secluded lake just a few hundred feet from our lodgings. My favorite activity had to be the Aqua Skipper.
It’s difficult to describe the product, which is essentially a hybrid of a bicycle and pogo stick for the water. You propel the machine by hopping up and down of the pedals, so the vehicle doesn’t require any external source of power aside from your body. The Aqua Skipper is definitely fun, but after a few hours on it, you realize the immense amount of energy it takes to power the conveyance.
