This digital alarm clock launches a rotor into the air that flies around the room as the alarm sounds, hovering up to 9' in the air, and will not cease ringing until the rotor is returned to the alarm clock base, compelling even the most stubborn sleepers to get out of bed on time.

i could have used that in college

Wait. That's a spoof, right?

OK, good!

The worst stuff in this catalog isn't the ridiculous-looking things but the generic, badly-made and absurdly overpriced crap versions of bad ideas, which are self-evidently not going to work very well. Those USB turntables in particular make me shudder to imagine.

That said, these are pretty fabulous:

Oh My God...ard! These are usually the first words out of peoples' mouths when they view Michael Godard's artwork. Godard, known as the "Rcok Star of the Art World" is currently the #1 best selling artist in the U.S. [...] Godard's imaginative world of art is seen by millions of people each month world wide such as cruise lines, galleries, hotels, television, magazines and countless merchandising kiosks and stores. His paintings even adorn the walls of the officer's lounge in the Pentagon.

Godard's world of art invites us in to his lighthearted perspective of life that surrounds us, mirroring our lives through martinis with animated olives, drunken grapes, dancing strawberries, including his own vices of gambling and the good life. Godard's unique portrayal of fun is an exciting combination of imagination and often subtle humor which evoke and engage the creative side in "Olive" us. Paintings depicting drunken grapes, gangster olives, dancing strawberries, and flaming dice have taken the conservative art world and turned it on its heel redefining art as we know it with a new definition and of course a punch line.

Today Michael Godard is considered one of the most prolific and influential artists of our time. These images are digitally mastered from the originals, printed on canvas and signed by Michael Godard himself.

^^^ strongly suspect this was all written by Godard, as it is way below the copy-editing standards of SkyMall generally...

"Stop counting thunder!" made me LOL but the bug vacuum is my secret shame because I kind of want one.

Godard made an interesting pimento placement decision on the lady olive balanced on the martini glass.

Sounds like more fancy-dancy, conservative art world talk to me!

he has olives tatooed on his arms ftw

It's as if that is the only thing he can really draw. Everything else is just clip art.

The olives are actually Screen Beans.

^^ This sums up SkyMall in so many ways.

SkyMall is the best of a two-hour flight.

Has there ever been a character/skit/anything where someone's entire house is furnished ONLY with SkyMall products? Could be great.

Or a real, human life? That could be even better.

HMM is that a metaphor

"now that I have this portable bidet, I can eat all the mexican food I want in tijuana!"

Traveling means a lot of compromising and unexpected changes from our daily routine. Changes in eating habits, fluid intake, schedules and personal hygiene all affect our comfort level, which can affect our performance and self-confidence in important business and social functions.

Personal appearance starts with personal hygiene, something people don't always like to talk about but that is at the cornerstone of our self-image. Being able to restore your personal hygiene and comfort after travelling has not always been possible until now; with your personal Sanicare Travel Bidet relief is at hand. Rinsing with water prevents irritation from toilet paper abrasion, incomplete cleansing, perspiration and bacteria, which can cause unpleasant odors. Whether you travel by plane, car, cruise ship or train, you can now feel shower fresh every time after using the restroom. No more compromising with your personal hygiene!

You owe it to yourself to experience the sophistication of enhanced cleanliness and personal comfort.

SkyMall is the best of a two-hour flight.

So, so true. Here's one where I was so bemused I took the Skymall with me:

I recently started getting these Touch of Modern e-mail spams, and it strikes me as being a slicker, higher end version of skymall:

BANG! is a desk lamp with a gun-shaped remote controller. You can can fire the “gun” to turn the light off, upon which the light goes out and the lampshade falls over, showing that it’s been hit. To turn it back on, simply shoot it again, and the lampshade will raise up slowly and turn the light back on at the same time. Add some fun to your daily tasks with the BANG! and some indoor target practice. It's perfect for any man cave or movie lounge.

Did feel like my man cave needed some sprucing up

Skymall actually sells a Man Cave sign but I can't find the exact one online right now, I think. Maybe this one?

Now I'll never get that dog bed with a built-in fridge signed by Derek Jeter.

end of an era

maybe they can have the uncrate print edition or something

never knew there was such a thing as a casserole kimono

remaining inventory to be bought by Sharper Image, Hammacher Schlemmer

Oh man, this is terrible. Probably like Hostess though and they'll relaunch with fanfare in six months? Mannn... I clipped some choice items on my last trip, feels kinda ghoulish to post em now though.

my mom told me she saw a 2-pg spread of products emblazoned with the name Bob
she thought it was stupid, but she also bought some stuff for her dad, who turns 93 on Saturday
lol!
