Ever want a husky lumberjack between your crack? Us, too. Luckily the kids over at Chicago-based store, Manifold offer this assortment of tantalizing bath towels.

The sexually-charged handy man, fire man and daisy duke-wearing construction worker are guaranteed to get you dry - and, perhaps, a little wet. Oh, yeah, we're naughty. We're so naughty, in fact, we're thinking about taking a Manifold pin-up bath towel to the beach. Yeah, that's right. Our depravity knows no bounds…

Don't worry, ladies, the store also has pin-up gals.

It may not even be Halloween, but it's never too early to prepare for that dreaded annual plague known as "The Holiday Season".

Well, what's a better way to celebrate both togetherness and drunken revelry than with a Mark Foley doll designed by David Johnson of SpectreStudios? Pretty fucking sweet, right? Well, you can own one. That is, if you head over to eBay, where the current bid rests at $255.

Sure, it may sound a bit steep, but Foley comes with his own hooch and what appears to be a GPS system (He is, after all, a drunk. We can't expect him to track down young lads all by his lonesome).

Oh, and if you're considering buying this for a guppie, be sure to read the packaging: "Not For Children."

(We must say, we're a little surprised to hear Foley's six-inches. We thought something closer to four, but we've never been very good with numbers.)

Nothing sets off the table at a summer BBQ like some whimsical salt and pepper shakers, and nothing is more whimsical than little wiener dogs, except little pooping wiener dogs. Yes, you can have them for only $13 and dress your corn on the cob with a giggle.

Many of us consider it our gay duty to tame the wanton hairs that sprout up in unlikely places on our bodies, and it can become quite a mundane chore, especially when nose and ear hairs grow back so quickly. We personally get some masochistic pleasure from ripping out our nose hairs while we blog, but for those of you not into the pain, we have found a humorous alternative method that could possibly add a giggle to your trimming time. Possibly. If you find this sort of thing funny.

The new Video iPod is great for watching clips and segments that are specially formatted for it. The only problem is the only iPod-friendly video is porn, and we can't watch that all the time, can we? Enter the iLuv i180WHT, which makes recording straight to your iPod from the TV a snap, no conversion necessary.

It looks like a regular dock, but connects your iPod to your television or other incoming video source and automatically converts it to iPod-viewable video. Now you can record every episode of the new Project Runway and watch it on the subway.

Timberland has revived their 1985 classic "King Spoke" shoe, which is like a sneaker/boat shoe combination with a snappy rainbow design. If only they could have released it a few weeks ago in time for Pride, they would be sold out by now.

We're generally not ones to wear our rainbows on our sleeves, but we might make an exception for these cute sneakers.

Wearing this t-shirt will help defuse one of the most tired pick-up lines: "Do you have the time?" Obviously you do, and you wear it on your chest, so would-be suitors will have to get a little more creative. The digital read-out is powered by four AAA batteries hidden away in a washable compartment and utilizes what must be a very expensive technology as this shirt is not cheap.

You'll be sure to get lots of attention with the glowing green time on your chest, just don't wear the shirt in the backroom unless you actually want to see people's faces.

Since every community needs a niche T-shirt outfitter (i.e. college frat boys have Busted Tees) and we've pretty much exhausted Threadless' catalog – and we're not always clever enough to come up with our own gems at Neighborhoodies – we've falled for Queer Republic Tees, which (mostly) branches out from your typical gay humor to deliver clever tee designs. Sure, we could do without the Abercrombie & Fitch-inspired designs like "Manhole Inspector" and "Dick's Roofing," but "Fruity Pants," "Step Back, Mary," and "Gay Pimp" are on our shopping list.

We have friends that swear up and down that Fiji Artisanal Artesian Water is actually better than tap, and we let them believe it if it makes them happy. However, now there is OGO Water, which is pumped full of oxygen: 35 times more than normal water. The results are apparently a quick pick-me-up, but we aren't sure how long it lasts. It's kind of like a bottled extension of yuppie "oxygen bars," except it has water in it. Bottling air might just be insulting our intelligence a little too much.

Still, we want to try it when it becomes available in the U.S., as it could be the perfect thing after a long, hard day of blogging.

Now that summer is in full-force, it's about time to retire that old pair of flip-flops you bought on sale at the Gap three years ago, and why not upgrade to some real quality summer footwear? Enter Kai Kai Sandals, with all rubber soles that supposedly mold to your foot for an ultra-comfortable fit.

We like the Montauk Classic (pictured above), which for $49.99 isn't the cheapest flip-flop we have found, but the suede top won us over. We'll believe that "rubber molding to your foot" business when we try it ourselves.

Always on the look out for under-the-radar designers with the talent to rival behemoths like Louis Vuitton, we were ecstatic to discover Ro, a New York design outfit from Gene Miao and Yvonne Roe that specializes in leather goods. Tired of seeing store shelves lined with bags that scream both "impractical" and "ugly," Ro does the opposite: instant classics that're both usable and aesthetically pleasing. We recently picked up Ro's MW Suitcase (smaller than you'd think) and business card holder, but already we're eyeing their duffle, which puts Prada's canvas alternative to shame. So far it looks like Ro is sticking to smaller bags and accessories; but as soon as they've got a suitcase on wheels, we'll be buying.

With the Flat Tire Concierge, you can change a flat tire without ruining your French cuffs. We think this invention is pure genius, and we love the name of it. For $24.95 you get a little mat to kneel on, some protective gloves, and a big yellow cover to clip over the flat tire so you can remove it without getting all icky dirty. This is one for the fastidious and/or well-dressed gay.

Oh, so you're not the only one tired of CBGB/OMFUG tees wandering the streets in a near T-shirt monopoly. Yes, we get it: CBGBs is the hotness when it comes to rock bars. But aren't there some other notable nightlife spots around town deserving of some fashoin charm? Of course, and it's not just in New York. Enter Retro Rags, a Detroit-based T-shirt outfit bringing back NYC's, L.A.'s, Chicago's, and, of course, Detroit's best bars of yesteryear for some tee lovin'. Added bonus: Each shirt comes with a "hang tag" re-telling the story of the distinct hot spot you'll be commemorating.

The hottest, newest creation from Apple. It's so sleek it almost seems useless. But we don't want to tell you too much about what it does, because… Well, we're not quite sure. Just watch the commercial, after the jump.

Literally, nice package. We're big fans of Ginch Gonch, and not only because their roster of underthings is the offline alternative to searching for "wreslter bulge" on YouTube. Put simply: They make hot underwear. And their latest offering – the Red Bandana Sport Brief – is no different. Normally we'd call them on their blatant bandwagoning of the Brokeback Mountain theme (because anything cowboy related is now instantly cliche), but they've put a tasteful twist on things with this bandana print. We'll take two .. of the model. And then we're hitting the mechanical bull.
