Buns 'n' Guns

At "Buns and Guns" you can order a "Kalashnikov" sandwich from a bullet-shaped menu, prepared by chefs in military fatigues with the roar of explosions as background music.

This new fast food restaurant in Beirut's southern suburbs, where the Hezbollah movement holds sway, was the brainchild of co-owner Ali Hammoud. He said the war theme was a novel concept that had nothing to do with Lebanon's bloody recent history.

What do you get when you cross Scrabble with a Keyboard?

Ever wondered what a keyboard would look like if it had Scrabble tiles for keys? This one of kind Keyboard has had so many responses that they are considering making a batch. The creator from Datamancer.net explains the concept:

"This keyboard was commissioned by a couple of friends of mine from back east who are avid Scrabble players. Most of the keys are made from real Scrabble tiles that were all hand-beveled (truly an exercise in patience/masochism!) and built onto a USB, clicky, mechanical-switch keyboard. This keyboard was going into a Mac environment so I decided to use brushed aluminum for the casing and round all of the corners to keep with the sleek, simple Macintosh styling. Near the end of the build, I decided that the keyboard looked a little too minimalist so I added some silver hardware and a seam to put a slightly industrialized twist on the design."

A yummy sleep

This bed comes from Kayla (Austin TX USA) who quotes...

"saw an amazing video - Hamburger: The Motion Picture and their dorm room beds were hamburgers. I couldn't shake the idea of a Hamburger Bed! I bought a round mattress from the 70's and made everything else myself... (with the exception of pickle chip pillows I received from a wonderful friend). It is 8' in diameter (I love saying my bed has a diameter) It stands about 3' tall. It is the most comfortable bed I have ever owned... ever".
