SkullCandy Titan in-ear bods.


So I have had these in-ear buds, for a better part of a year now. Well not these black ones, but rather I have a copper colored pair. And I have to say they are sweet, not awesome though. The pair I purchased off Amazon.com were a season or two old but still rock it! See the pair I have used a foam like ear bud that is much like those neon orange hearing protection plugs that OHSA makes some people (or wives with annoying husbands) wear.

You know, I really do like these ear buds, but have to say that I do have a few issues, first when you wear them you need to make sure you route the cable in such a way that it wont get caught on something, the other well lets say the cable gets a little sticky from moisture (sweat you sickos!)... Those are really my only to complaints. The sound is nice and rich. Bass is deep and the highs are well, high. And with these foam tips on them you really can not hear anything around you, even when you have the sound turned down. Which is a good and bad thing... I mean what more can I say? They have good sound, I didn't pay much, thats not to say you wont, and they are good for just about all uses when you want to tune out the world. If you can buy them for 20ish bucks then get them, if not don't. I'm sorry I'm a little on the cheap side.

Now back to rocking out with Pandora or Slacker as my musical guide...

Pocket Tool X Brewzer


So first off I want to say sorry to Pocket Tool X. And here is why, this post should not have taken this long to get up. But life has a way of being, well life. So Sorry guys!

Wow, I feel better now, ON WITH THE POST.


So me being the gadget geek that I am, Uber Gadget Geek that is, I have a soft spot for gadgets of all shapes and sizes. And multi-tools, well they are slowly turning into a collectors thing for me. And I blame my mates over on multitool.org. Which leads me to the
Brewzer, and the guys at Pocket Tool X. Well I got on their Facebook Page and entered a small give away they were holding. Well holy spandex batman I was one of the lucky few to get a Brewzer! They have a few other products so they are worth a look.

So what is this little bite of 154CM Stainless Steel goodness? A bottle opener, a very awesome bottle opener. Yes everyone under the sun has a bottle opener on their key chain, so what makes this one any different? Well it is more then just a novelty item or a single tasker, no this is perfect for the budding college student that is really thirsty. Will it open my favorite bottle beverage? Yep, and it will open up those drinks that are hiding in an aluminum can as well. But those cans must hide in fear as the Brewzer also has the ability to poke open a hole in the bottom for those times when you really (and I mean really) need to drink something fast. But with that being said, you can honestly use the multi-purpose tip for opening packages (like those you get from really awesome vendors like Pocket Tool X) to even using the edge to pry something open/off. You know, like that bottle cap that is implanted on your head after you 'fell asleep at the party'.


So at the end of the day would I say buy it? YES! But that's just me, and well I could be wrong. But hey its 20 bucks, it is small (really small) and it opens bottles BETTER than my Atwood Atwrench. Yes I said better, sorry Peter. Oh and while you are shopping on Pocket Tool X's site, make sure you take a look at the Piranha, it was their first showing of a tool and I think it was done rather well. Oh and Pocket Tool X, if you are so inclined I'd love to 'review' more of your products... I'm just sayin :)
