Comments on this: none yet. Add your own. Widge's note: Ladies and gents, please welcome to the podium: Rox of Spazhouse, our resident artist and advocate for more lighting. Phoenix Alchemy Lab has created a very large selection of scented wonders based on themes and holidays over the years. Such themes run from gothic to the very intriguing Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett perfume oils. These perfumes are oils, which which have a more concentrated scent than colognes, which are diluted with alcohol. As the Need Coffee's Steampunk aficionado, I am happy to review two samples of Phoenix Lab's Steamworks and Research Facility perfumes. Airships, linen, velvet, gears, mechanisms, and of course goggles are some of the accoutrements to the world of steampunk. The perfume names and descriptions invoke a times and adventures that occurred in the unlimited expanse of your imagination. First up: The Coil. Categorized as: Gear and Reviews

In a shocking announcement that is shaking the New Chicago political establishment, a robot clock has come forward to tell a horrific tale of sex, lies, and microprocessors. "Everyone knows him as the cool rational member of the Computer Council, but behind closed doors, he's a sexual demon," Kim, the robot clock said. "He would want to interface a dozen times a day, access all my unused ports, and use the most obscene protocols. I was constantly in fear that my battery would run down permanently."

The only thing more of an affront than this would be them punching your mother in the mouth. With your fist. Not even Salieri would have bought Mozart one of these. That's how bad it is. Even Dindrane would kill the frog. That's how bad it is. Direct link for the feedreaders. Found by Ken, who is probably buying me one right now. Categorized as: Gear

Comments on this: none yet. Add your own.  Those twisted geniuses at Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab have done it again, drawing me in with two of my greatest weaknesses in a one-two punch (or pseudopod slap, either way): Lovecraft and black t-shirts. So I just ordered my Miskatonic Valley Junior Baseball Association 2008 Pancake Breakfast and Summoning Volunteer t-shirt. How could I refuse? But if you want to show your support for any of their teams--the Innsmouth Guppies, for instance, or the Dunwich Whippoorwills (pictured)--you can snag a shirt or even a pennant. If that's not enough they even have "I am the Proud Parent of a..." stickers. And if you just want to smell like you support the association, they have two scents for the 2008 season. Nice. Find the full array here. Tell them we said hi. Categorized as: Gear

Comments on this: none yet. Add your own.  You know, some people want to go and write songs about the Moon. Other people want to blow it out of the sky. For those latter types, Prof. Grordbort has provided the Goliathon 800 Moon Hater Death Ray. Or a model, anyway. Yes, WETA is messing with our minds yet again, like the last time we posted about the good Professor. No price yet and no edition size yet. But you can expect it to cost roughly the same as a kidney. And there's Lord Cockswain's Ray-Blunderbuss "The Unnatural Selector," which is a massive weapon. You have to register at the site to show you're interested since right now it's just a showpiece. And it's a helluva showpiece. You can see a picture over at Brass Goggles, which is who clued us into it. Categorized as: Gear
