Pac-Man bookcase sacrifices shelf space to make room for mouth wedge
Posted on January 26, 2010 | No Comments
Will nobody address the elephant in the room when it comes to this awesomely wonderful Pac-Man bookcase? The mouth wedge eats up (pun intended!) valuable shelf space. But what’s the designer to do?

Thank you, Columbus, Ohio!
Posted on November 10, 2009 | No Comments
If you weren't at the Surly Girl Saloon last night for the Columbus CrunchGear meetup, then you were somewhere else! You missed John sporting a new pair of Onion Goggles.
