17 Way For Tennis Balls To Spend Their Retirement
2007-09-11 20:56:25
As an avid member of the tennis community, my two dogs have hundreds of old tennis balls to play with. Neither dog can catch a ball, but one likes to eat the fuzz off the ball and the other dog just aimlessly chases. But, for those of you looking for different ways to use your old tennis balls, I just came across 17 unique methods to use old tennis balls. Some of these are pretty common like “Garage Wall Proximity Detector” and “Trailer Hitch Cover”. But, some I had never thought of like “Bottle Opener”.

I must buy this! This is what I need to walk amongst the kids in my neighborhood as a superior. It has nothing to do with my 20+ years of age and experience, it all has to do with the cool stuff I can buy for their Wii game console.

Get Custom Running Shirts At Running Banana
2007-10-02 13:42:49
I just completed my first 5K, and I can tell you that running in a cotton shirt sucks. It’s hot, sweaty and weighs 18 pounds by the time you’re finished. The easy thing to do is go out and buy an actual running shirt, one that is designed to keep you cool and dry. Another option you can take, if you want a little more flare or personalization, is to go shop at Running Banana. Running Banana allows you to upload personal images or slogans that they will print on your running shirt for you. Think Cafepress on steroids with a protein bar in hand. Their shirts will wick sweat away, keep you running cooler and could quite possibly make you the talk of the race. My personal fav from their gallery is this shirt worn by a police officer in a race. Shirts start at $23 and go up to $37.

You can find specs for the bottles at their website above or follow along with product enhancements and R&D at The Body Bottle blog. The Body Bottle retails for $10.95 and you can get it at their website.

2007-12-18 10:24:41
When 23 year old Chris Bryant was dared by his buddy to jump a car, he never knew that a successful jump would mean so much. Five years later, with a little help from Ellen DeGeneres, Bryant has taken his unique jumping ability to new heights. In September, Bryant appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show to show off his knack at leaping over cars. During the interview he told Ellen that he had always wanted to be in a Nike commercial. Right then and there, Ellen called the CEO of Nike and pitched the car jumper ad. Three months later, Chris Bryant has his Nike commercial and even designed a pair of running shoes called the Nike Shox NZ, which he wears in the commercial. Kudos to Ellen, Nike and Chris Bryant. What a great story! See his Nike ad above.
