SUREFIRE M6 GUARDIAN
Call it the big daddy of flashlights—as one peep at this torch’s 500-lumen
output (12 times that of a flashlight with two D cells) will convince you
that it doesn’t get any brighter than this. Powerful enough to illuminate
the dead of night, blind an intruder, or signal an alien spacecraft, this is
the choice of the true flashlight aficionado.
$400, http://www.surefire.comUSB HUMPING DOG
Need someone who can show you a bit of can-do attitude? Someone who
doesn’t know the meaning of the word quit? You need a USB-powered
Humping Dog. The device serves no useful purpose—it merely does what
dogs do, it humps. Yet, as it works its mojo on your keyboard, it will instill
in you the desire to carry on and complete the mindless set of tasks your
boss has put before you.
