Puff 'n' Fluff Dog Dryer
The holidays are here, and-in the words of the heartwarming classic Andy Williams holiday tune we will hear so many times that by mid-December we will want to stuff figgy pudding into our ears - "it's the most wonderful time of the year."
And it truly is, for many reasons. It's a time of good will, when people we barely know extend heartfelt season's greetings to us, often in the form of convenient envelopes with the words SEASONS GREETINGS printed right on them that we can use to give these people their holiday tips.
It's also a festive time, when we attend holiday gathering after holiday gathering, eating and drinking and eating some more, our thighs rubbing together in joyful anticipation as we waddle, yet again, back to the cookie platter.
And it's a time of family togetherness, when we travel long distances to be with our loved ones, only to remember, 45 minutes into a scheduled six-day visit, why we have chosen to live so far from them.

Wearable Hummingbird Feeder
$79.95 from heatstick.com
Suggested by Janice Gelb of Melbourne, Australia
Imagine having a hummingbird hover right in front of your face. Specifically, in front of your eyeballs. It’s darting around and thrusting with its long, pointy, needle-like beak. Right next to your eyeballs! Which you use to see!
Ha-ha! If that sounds like a fun and relaxing nature adventure for you or some lucky individual on your holiday gift list, then you definitely need to get this wearable hummingbird feeder. This is basically a face shield, kind of like what hockey goalies wear, with a hummingbird feeder tube that pokes out right between the eyes. You go to an area frequented by hummingbirds, put the mask on, sit there for a while and then suddenly, yikes, you are eye-to-beak with an extremely close-range hummingbird.
“If you are serious about hummingbirds,†states the product website, “this feeder will take your relationship with your hummingbirds to a whole new level.â€
This item could also be used as a mask for the person on your holiday gift list who commits armed robberies. (“Do what he says! He has a hummingbird!â€)
I’m getting 3 rolls of toilet paper for my Dad for Christmas. Each sheet has a picture of Hitlery Rotten Clinton on it. I’m fairly sure he’ll love the gift.
I think the Poo-Pourri is a winner! Imagine how much nicer the Canteen would smell if we were to use a few of those!
Truly hysterical! LOL
We could get the Nicholas Cage pillowcase for LUV.
the job’s not finished until the paperwork is done.
You got that right.
Thanks, I needed this!
...or Santa’s secret. :)
I loved Dave Barry!
Agreed! But the Nicholas Cage pillowcase is out! Won’t settle for anything less than Tom Selleck!
‘the man on your holiday gift list who wishes to make a bold fashion statement, specifically: “I do not own a mirror.” ‘
LOL! Dave sure can turn a phrase!
you do and you MUST post REAL pictures! LOL!
You will laugh. Or at least find it slightly humorous.
I think I’d like the belly bump ball for the crowds at the store at Christmas. LOL
O M G!!! ROFL!
Sugar free gummies is CLASSIC!
