Global Warming Mug

I have a color changing mug that I use almost everyday for the last decade. It's awesome, to see when your coffee is at the perfect temp. I'm thinking of trading it in for an upgrade!
The mug is sea blue and has a map of the world drawn on it. When you put warm liquid in it, the coastlines on all continents rapidly recede. I'm looking to warm up to a new tropical paradise right now!!

SmarTea Teapot with Warmer

It's a smart tea pot with a misspelled name. Go figure. So... what's it for? Why is it so special?
From web site"This beautiful teapot features a tea pot and a warmer that you can light with a candle."So, it's a teapot with the brains of a hot plate? Shrug. It might not have brains, but it is cute.

The Dirty Mug

It's a mug and its already dirty. That's right. What more can be said?
Certainly you no longer have to worry about your office mates snagging the work mug. Of course you might also find yourself slightly repulsed as well.

Yerba Mate

Which simply means herb gourd, is something I was clued into a number of years ago. I have a Brazilian friend who explained how he first partook of this at a basketball meet in S.America. Seemed fascinating, and a bit disturbing, as he said they all drank from the same mate.

Well think geek is bringing it home to the geeks!



"It contains alkaloids in the same family as caffeine, so you get a completely natural boost - yet it is much gentler on your stomach. Yerba mate also contains natural antioxidants, which help mental clarity and the sustenance of physical energy even more. It is a drink from the past and it encourages you to just slow down, relax, and focus."

Health Energy Potion

For the gamer among you, who hasn't wondered just was in that little red pick you up bottle, that appears in almost every role playing game. Well the folks at Think Geek have a guess..


  • Each tiny shot is loaded with 160mg of caffeine and tons of other health boosters.

  • As much caffeine as two cans of Red Bull®

  • Powered with goodies like Elderberry, Ginseng, Biotin, and Folic Acid.

  • Provides 5-8 hours of smooth energy.

  • No sugar, so no aftercrash.

  • Each six pack contains 6 (duh) 1.69oz bottles.


  • Couple that with some Mana Potion, and you will be good to take on any horde of ravaging bugbears!

    Sharky Tea Infuser

    It's amazing how a fun design can change your persective on a relativly simple item. Take for instance the tea infusing process.


    Tea in the infuser
    insert in in hot water,
    hot water becomes tea.

    Well this infuser does the EXACT same thing. Except it looks like a shark! Awesome!
