We have covered this sort of news before.

On the weirder side are people trapped in balloons. All I have to say is “It was The MOOPS!
Flying the friendly skies is getting to be more interesting by the day. Apparently
some people are utilizing the down time to enjoy adult entertainment. I don’t have a problem with porn provided that the actors/actresses are consenting adults and no one is being hurt. (We’re going to keep it simple and not get into the complexities of whether porn hurts people or not.)But I can’t help but wonder about people who think that it is ok to watch skin flix in the midst of 350 strangers. Something about that seems awfully strange to me. I wonder where this discussion will lead; as I am sure that there are plenty of action/horror/thriller/comedies or what we call films in general that blur the lines of what is appropriate for display in public.
Or should we say that given the cramped quarters of airline seats it is questionable as to whether anyone really has privacy on a plane.
I drove one of these cars a while back, it was a lot of fun.
And in the category of overpriced and probably unnecessary is the Table Top Photo Studio. As described:
Ideal for photographing items such as jewelry and collectibles for online auctions or insurance records, or for providing the proper environment for enhancing the hobby of photography, this is the complete tabletop photo studio for use with your own camera that includes two backdrops, a compact light box with an integrated diffuser screen, and two high output lights with adjustable, retractable legs. It comes with two background color choices to provide suitable contrast for both light and dark objects, and the light diffuser balances light while softening distracting shadows for crisp, clear photo lighting.
The backdrop folds flat for storage, and the set includes a handle and a built-in
carrying case for convenient portability.
Sorry, but a hundred bucks for this is ridiculous. There are a million ways that you can do the same thing with things that you already own.
