Go ahead, take a seat on this paper stool. It won’t collapse, really, at least not up to 250 pounds. This foldable accordion-style seat is made of heavy-duty Honeycomb Kraft paper. Folded flat, it’s 8" long x 20" tall, and about 16” x 20” when open. It’s black with a comfy seat, and it’s a snap to collapse or unfold. Finally—a stool so satisfying you’ll want to take it with you!

Like the actual Crimson Tide, the mythical Alabama Tumblers would, in fact, also roll. Regardless of whom you root for, we’ve got lots of beautiful, deep crimson tumblers for your liquid-intake pleasure. These (16)-oz, stainless steel insulated travel cups measure 7-1/2” tall x 3-1/2” dia and have ceramic liners to keep liquids appropriately hot or cold. Press-on cap has a silicone seal and a sliding-lock drink spout to keep your bevvy from spilling when your tumbler rolls. But the soft rubber, non-slip, non-scratch base will help prevent that.

Forget those LED votives—nobody wants to flip a switch in anyone's memory. This is the classic white wax candle, 1-1/8” tall in a clear glass holder that’s 2-1/2” tall x 2” dia. We're lighting a bunch for Charlie Watts, the best-dressed drummer who ever lived.

Standard digital thermometers for people never go out of style. Place this one under the tongue or armpit (or you know where else…eeyeww), and you’ll get a quick, Fahrenheit or Celsius digital read-out. Beeps when it’s ready and has last memory recall and a storage sheath for the tip. Also turns off automatically when you forget, which you might do if you’re running a fever. See how worth it this is? At this price, you might as well buy (2). Just remember which one’s for under the tongue and which one’s for somewhere else.

The little tyke appeared in 1952, a worried two-year-old looking for a little comfort in a cold world. With Lucy as a big sister, it's hard to blame him. The math never lies--Linus turned 70 this year, and he had to trade in his blue security blanket for a blue and white Social Security Card Blanket. Looks just like the card in your wallet (which you shouldn't carry in your wallet), and measures 68" x 34" in soft, comforting poly fleece. Even has your name on it: John Q. Public. All you add is a thumb.

Or lampy flowers, we're not sure. We do know these ceramic lamp finials (the thingees that hold the shade on) are sweetly colored bunches of flowers, about 1" dia x 3" tall. Our each is a box of (4) including (1) each with yellow chrysanthemums, yellow daffodils, rose, purple and yellow tulips, and rose and purple somethings which we think may sort of be pansies. All have green leaves around the flowers. Very pretty, but we suggest you do not use them with a hi-tech decor.

Which this excellent little travel/desk clock and calender does. Measures 3” tall x 3-1/4” wide with a 1-1/4” square LCD screen framed in translucent dark gray lucite.

The flat vase is 10-1/2" tall and made of thin formable plastic, flat enough to keep in a file folder, or to fold and put in your pocket when you're carrying roses somewhere. Fill it with warm water and mold it to the shape you want, empty it and fill it with cold water to hold that shape; add flowers. Ours are a lovely white and green, blue, or red floral pattern.
