In a previous Link Of The Day I had a zoom lens mug. It was cool and all, but it still looked like a mug due to the huge handle. Check out this awesomeness!

This is a thermos that looks like a Canon 70-200L lens! Totally sweet and I am totally envious of all the people who apparently got them for free at the olympics.

Well, Christmas is officially over in our household. All the decorations are down, the tree has been undecorated and removed from the house, and today I took down the remaining lights outside and inside.

In recent years it has been very vogue to go green. More people think about it now which is awesome, but some companies now market their existing products as green. I try to do little changes to my life that over time can add up to a lot. Changing driving habits, refusing plastic bags as often as possible, reusing items when it is safe to do so. Every once in a while I come across a list that really makes me feel good about what I do.

This is one such list. 50 Ways to Help the Planet. When I first read the list I was suprised at how many of these I was already doing.

The basic tShirt is something that everyone needs and wears. A true geek needs geeky tShirts. Here are some good ones I have stumbled across.

Getting myself dressed is hard. I can't imagine if I had to choose a head to go along with that. Lego mini figs have it rough

Sometimes you just need to spell it out to people. How many of these icons apply to you?

I may not drink caffeinated coffee any more, but I still enjoy a cup now and then. I also still feel my coffee tank running on empty throughout the day.

Nothing like a good CSS reference to fill your geek quotient.

What's better than one CSS reference? Two CSS references.

Finally, something for the math geek in all of us. If you don't get the shirt, I'm not going to explain it to you.
