TankChair

I'm not sure what I am more excited about, TankChair's gimpy design hottness or the fact that today I saw posts about TankChair on multiple non-gimp websites. 

Crip World Domination is truly on it's way!

PT = AFK

Gimpy Mumpy,
admitted Gimp Geek Gamer Girl,
has been surprised by the dust gathering on her keyboard lately.  The reason?  Physical/Physio therapy. 
PT = AFK is born.
PT = AFK Gear can now be found over at the PT = AFK Cafepress Store.  Enjoy!

TENS Jacket?

With the return of sunshine and fair weather Miss Mumpy is getting ready to shed some layers of clothing.  This often presents problems though like where do I put my TENS unit? 
With so many new lines of iPod clothing, such as this iPod Jacket from Vickerey, this summer looks promising for Gimp Gear.  Hooray!

Doh Boy combats stealth fat

The Doh Boy toy and baking tin out to make a difference:

"His name is Doh Boy and his mission is to take the fat back out of bread. Doh Boy reckons ‘we don’t kneed it’. The only reason it is there is to help make bread quicker to make and make it last longer on the shelf. Doh Boy thinks this technique (called Chorleywood) has made fatter profits for those who make and sell it. But it has also made us all a little fatter as a result. Stealth fat is a growing problem. These are the fats that we don’t know are there. We expect there to be fat in a chocolate bar. But we don’t expect 3 slices of some breads to have as much fat as that chocolate bar."

Hey Doh Boy, you had me at stealth fat.

Color Fusion Shower

The Color Fusion Shower has water powered LEDs attached to the shower head that glow different colors to indicate the water temperature.  Whether you are tactile impaired or just don't enjoy burning your hand to find out if your shower is hot yet the Color Fusion Shower looks like a great bit of gimp gear.

Cooktop with Voice Navigation, Sweet!

Popgadget has the skinny today on a Sanyo Electric cooking stove with voice navigation and musical tones to alert you when burners have heated up to a certain temperature.  What a great idea for VI (visually impaired) chefs or gimpy cooks like me who need to go have a lie down while waiting for that water to boil.
Another great piece of Gimp Gear for the kitchen!

Sister Mary the Robot Nurse

If you happen to be a patient at St. Mary's Hospital in London you may come into contact with, or even be examined by, Sister Mary the Robot Nurse. 
Sister Mary allows your doctor to  interact with and examine you remotely.  Great. My doctor is hard enough to communicate with!  On the up side though Sister Mary cannot possibly have a bedside manner as terrible as most doctor's I know.  She could do with a bit of a make-over though!

Look Ma, No Hands!

Now this looks like a brilliant bit of Gimp Gear & Gadgetry for the kitchen! 
The Stir Chef is a 'hands free' automatic stirrer.  Just attach the spring-loaded arms to the rim of your saucepan and let your robot slave take over.  No more endless standing and stirring.  Yeah!

Nail Biter?

Stop 'n Grow, a product to prevent nail biting, has unleashed an attention grabbing new advertising campaign with these "Nail Biter? Stop 'n Grow helps" shopping bags.
Hmmm, I already was a bit wary of shopping malls but now I am truly frightened.

Aromatherapy Humidifier Combo

The Aromatherapy Humidifier by Plus Minus Zero is a great piece of Gimp Gear for those of us suffering from harsh dry winter air.

The design is stylish and comes in a wide range of cool colors but I can't help but think it looks a bit too much like my Ass Donut. 

Oh well, I can always tuck it away behind some plants.
