I'd be more apathetic if I weren't so lethargic.

I'd like to put in a good word here for my new teapot, which rules.

Yeah, whatever. Back up off a brother.

Wow. That is really neat.

Very cool. I find a huge portion of that magazine irredeemably tedious and pompous, but there's a lot of great stuff in the rest of it.

Here's my favorite item bought this year:

Those look really cool. I've been doing PT for a rotator cuff problem, but when it gets back up to full strength I might have to check those out.

I read it pretty selectively now, but what's exciting about the collection is all of the people who used to write for it.

E.B. White, for instance, is just about as far from tedious and pompous as one can get.

Also, I'd be hard pressed to think of a way to buy a more comprehensive anthology of 20th century short fiction.

I probably should have put a prompt in here, but, in addition to singing the praises of the New Yorker archive, I was trying to elicit more posts like Blarg's.

So, what's the coolest thing you've purchased this year?
