Top Ten Weirdest Gadgets of 2010

A New Zealand inventor has created a electric bicycle that will hit the markets in 2010. This 21 pound bike easily folds into a convenient carrying size and travels at a dizzying 12 miles an hour. The large front wheel, tiny back wheel, and handle bars that wrap around your rear easily qualify this bike for the weird gadget list. If your rear happens to be larger than the seemingly microscopic three inch seat, your hands will effectively wrap under your back end to steer this bike through traffic. One can only imagine the stares from pedestrians (and police officers) this bike will elicit.
Next is the painful looking dragon controller. Realistically shaped like a dragon, the spiky wings will cut into your palms and a plastic flame will jab where your fingers should be.
Someone has created a hay-fever hat and eyedropper eyeglasses. The hat is basically a toilet paper dispenser. You place the hat on your head and you instantly have tissue available for the next allergy attack. Each lens of the eyeglasses contains a plastic funnel that opens directly over your eyeball. You simply pour your desired medicine in! If you’re anything like me, you’ll see it coming and blink. Even with the eyeglasses, the medicine will never reach my eye!
Soon to be released are anti-smell socks. These socks are guaranteed not to smell even after six months at the bottom of your gym locker. Smells fishy to me!
Three new alarm clocks will soon be available. One is an anti-bang alarm clock, complete with a set of spikes on top to wake you up the moment you hit the snooze button. Next is the digital bomb clock that makes realistic bomb sounds to wake you up each morning. (I wouldn’t recommend it to veterans.) Lastly, the gong alarm clock features a shirtless man smacking a mini-gong to wake you up. All three beg the question, “Why?”
The newest gadget in the cell phone world is a single button watch that connects to your Blackberry. No more wrestling your phone out of your pocket to check caller ID.
Finally, you can soon purchase a solar powered cooler. It contains a small solar panel to charge your MP3 player for about thirty seconds of playback time. Just plug into the cooler’s speakers and enjoy three words from your favorite song!
