Neck stretching is a common practice amongst some African countries, so I’m a bit surprised to see an apparatus for the Western part of the world that appears to do just that.  In actually, it’s a Neck Traction device that uses a small hand driven pump to increase or decrease the level of support and as a result stretches the neck.  Supposedly, this helps reduce pain by ‘releasing neck pressure caused by pinched nerves’.  Honestly, the only thing I see this thing doing is make you look more retarded than a person wearing a neck brace or a dog with a lamp shade on its head.

I love shaving in the shower.  I can get to more areas quicker.  This Weather Station Shower Mirror looks like a nice gift to myself especially since my shower is in a dungeon area of my basement with no windows looking out.  The weather station displays: time, date, temperature, humidity, and the daily forecast based on barometric pressure.  Using 2 AA and 2 AAA batteries, there is also a spot to hold a can of shaving cream and 2 razors.  Held up by suction cups, I’d hate to see this thing hit the shower floor.  No word on how anti-fog the mirror is, so purchase at your own discretion.  On sale now for $50.  Shave on.
