Re-inventing an item is a good way to get maximum usage out of an object. When they tore down Yankee Stadium, thousands of artifacts became available for re-purposing. And for sale. If you have a bar in need of a barstool (and an extra $8000 laying around), The Autographed Authentic Yankee Stadium Seat Barstool is just for you. And if the thought of sitting on autographs of Jeter and A-Rod make you squeamish, a non-autographed version will only set you back a grand.
ThinkGeek Chocolate Zombie Bunny Turns Real

Considering previous ThinkGeek April Fool’s gag products have turned real, it shouldn’t be a great surprise that the Chocolate Zombie Bunny has found life. Joining other physical-world products, the Tauntaun Sleeping Bag, My First Bacon, Unicorn Meat, Personal Soundtrack Shirt, 8-bit Tie and the iCade, the little critter is the sweet-to-eat treat that bites back. Unfortunately, what isn’t a joke, is the fact that it is all sold out–but hey, there’s always next year.
***UPDATE 9/28/24*** The link above now points to GameStop and they don’t sell Zombie Chocolate Bunnies. (Yet for some reason their stock took off!) But no worries, it looks like this is a seasonal(?) product from Sugar Plum Chocolates. Yum!

Trudeau Stress Less Safety Can Opener
Despite the marvels of modern kitchen technology, cans can’t open themselves. (Those pull-tab ones may come close, but we aren’t there yet.) Electric can openers, despite their ease-of-use, take up valuable counter space; however, for many, they are stuck with them as hand-held options can be hard to use. The Trudeau Stress Less Safety Can Opener tries to eliminate this issue by providing increased leverage with the rotating cranking arm. Additionally, the cutting mechanism leaves no sharp edges, making this can opener not only easier to use, but safer too.
Champagne Salvaged From 19th Century Shipwreck

Some truly rare wines are about to go under the hammer–and chances are they would survive even if that were literally true. Coming up in June, two bottles of champagne (Veuve Clicquot and Juglar) salvaged from a 19th-century shipwreck will be auctioned off. The apparently indestructible bottles are sure to fetch a hefty price.
Click on through to read the whole press release, including information on how to place a bid. (Good idea: Do not drink while bidding on this auction.)
