Viva Pinata 2: Trouble in Paradise (Xbox 360)

First to recommend

Description

I shed a tear as I make this recommendation... a tear of joy that there exists another, better Viva Pinata, a tear of sadness that I won't be buying Viva Pinata 2 anytime soon because I have what some might call a "problem" with this romancing-and-gardening digital paradise, in that "leaving the house" didn't happen much when I was involved with Viva Pinata 1.

But you, you should get this game. It is visually exquisite, and it involves exotic mating dances, flora, creatures of all stripes, spots and scales, the chiaroscuro of good-versus-evil and candy, mountains and mountains of crunchy dime-store suckers. Oh, and also shopping.

...And also, and here's the kicker, you never never ever lose. And you're never doing the wrong thing. It just goes on and on and on (and on) (for 6 hours) (I'd know).

As they say on Pinata Island, "Filled with fun... FILLED WITH FUN!"

Veuve Clicquot Traveller (750ML bottle, 2 flutes & tote bag)

First to recommend

Description

How on on earth has one roamed the earth (or even visited family) without a va-va-Veuve traveler on hand to overcome all manner of voyage-related turbulence. Oh, that's right, a duffel of bubbly could be part of a nasty terrorist plot and, therefore, is champers non gratis on planes. Pity.

Flip Video Ultra Series Camcorder, 60-Minutes (Black)

9 people recommended this item

Description

Little black fun box! Small enough and cheap enough that you can throw it in your bag for documenting adventures saving villages, partying like a rock starlet and the like.

When the camera sometimes stays home because it's really nice and you don't want an evildoer to crush it or slosh a cocktail on it or something else dastardly and when the video camera gathers dust because it's awkward to bust up everyone's fun with a Sofia Coppola moment , the fearless and friendly Flip saves the day.

Pacific Ocean Blue - Legacy Edition: Dennis Wilson

First to recommend

4 people recommended this item

Description

Beach-y, beard-y, Dennis Wilson's Pacific Ocean Blue: far out, creates urge to bust out groovy rainbow tube-top jumpsuit and and dance in the sand with hands swaying overhead, makes one wish for opportunity to be his sixth wife (apparently there were five before his too soon death).

It's half re-issue and half material from never-released Bambu album, something fans of the later Beach Boys thing (like Sunflower and Holland) will dig, dig?
