We're back from the Lone Star State and before I post any more pictures from our travels I have to tell you about the coolest new toy we picked up in Austin. It's called the Airzooka pictured above. I know, it looks like a trashcan, but really it's a vortex generator. Blasts of air can be shot anywhere from 20 to 50 feet. It's incredibly fun and if you fancy the latest and coolest toys, this is the best bet for Christmas. The day we got home, I also noticed the Airzooka advertised at thinkgeek.com. It's already catching on.
I got an airzooka for my birthday.
My favorite game is to take a newspaper page and have someone about 20 feet away hold it up by just pinching the two corners. It is tough to aim from that distance, but what is cool as that it takes nearly a second for the air blast to hit the paper, and so you have that quick thought that you have missed, and then suddenly, the paper pops.
