It will be when you inflate it with a hair dryer or heat gun. Here's a great big (8-foot x 6-foot when inflated) hot air balloon, of lightweight vinyl in colorful stripes just like the full-sized ones, but with a spool of nylon monofilament so you can tether it and fly it again tomorrow instead of chasing it down the block. Cool use for hot air! Adult supervision required.

Better get these beauties before the staff takes them all home: telescoping extension handles (new ones) from the rolling-luggage industry, and we think they're the niftiest things since, well, rolling luggage. Attach them (along with wheels) to tool boxes, build your own rolling storage cases, create pull-out work spaces under desktops or workbenches. This dream handle has dual 1" wide x 3/4" rectangular black steel shafts, 4-1/2" apart, with a 2-draw telescope action and a push button in the handle. The shafts float in a steel bracket that allows the handle to be recessed into a case. This is saw-offable, however, so the handle could also be independently mounted on the outside of a surface. The handle extends 20" for an OA length of 33-1/2"

Blow into the little mouthpiece and people four blocks away will look up. Folks any closer will spill their mocha frappucinos in their laps. Actually we think the manufacturer's half-mile-range claim might even be an understatement. The Mega Sound Blaster delivers the loudest horn blast we've ever heard from this small a package (3" long x 2-1/4" dia). It has a 30" neck cord, so you'll always be ready to scare the bejeebers out of woodland critters, tell the rangers you're lost, call the kids in from the lake, or impersonate an 18-wheeler.

Look! Up in the sky! It's a screeching flying monkey to the rescue! And at a screechingly low price. Our hero is an 11" long stuffed monkey in superhero togs (a cape, and maybe a mask or hood, depending on his sartorial whim). Put two fingers in the little pockets on his paws, pull his bungee arms back, and let him go. He'll fly a good 25 feet or more, issuing hideous monkey screeches all the while, faster than a flying nun and able to brighten up a day in the office in a single bound.

And we did it ourselves with this little mat cutter and self-healing cutting mat. The dual-blade mat cutter has a comfy rubber handle and a removable bevel for clean 45° cuts. The blade adjusts to 9/16" deep and is 4-1/2" long OA, and replacement blades are standard stock in art supply stores. The hard rubber cutting mat is self-healing and no, we don't know how it does that. It's 11-3/4" x 8-3/4" x 1/8" thick, marked with 1/8" and 5mm increments and 1/2" squares, and lines for 45° and 60° cuts.
