Wine and Woot!

picture-10

Deal of the day website, Woot! finds itself in the business of wine.

It would appear I am a bit “late to the game” on this one. That’s because I am. As far as my highly informed sources can tell (a.k.a. me on a Friday night with a box of Cheezits), sometime late last year Woot.com released a little sibling: Wine.Woot!

Yes yes, I know what you’re saying, the exclamation point (or ‘mark’ for the rest of the world) was coined, used, invented, and trademarked by Yahoo! way back when. Well, whatever, Woot! seems to be pulling it off.

If you never order wine from the internet, at least head on over to their site and read the FAQs page called What is Wine.Woot, it’s relatively hysterical and hysterically relevant.picture-12

Montana Transit Authority

transitauthorityNeal Fegan makes some killer looking bicycles, or more properly, velocipedes. Unfortunately, his site is a blob of flash un-link-able-ness, so you’ll have to sit through the time-wasting and pointless introduction. And there aren’t too many examples posted yet. But if the few creations he has are any indication of what is to come, this is a bicycle artist worth keeping your eye on.

And, my Mom cleans his Mom’s teeth, ha ha!
