Needed a place outside for a backup key in case the Schlage combo battery died or stopped working. This is secure storage for keys and you can put it just about anywhere.

Of course you need to lock the access box inside a compartment shaped like a giant crest, which you can only open by finding a specially shaped cog and crank, assembling them, and then inserting them into the crest.

easy set up and great range, I wanted something to cover the house as well as garage and the garage apartment. These do the trick and they all sound when one activates which is what I was going for. Some of the other ones I've seen don't have the range of this one or the ease of set up. Definitely recommend it.
Schlage BE365VPLY505 Plymouth Keypad Deadbolt, Bright Brass
This works fantastic, was just what I needed since I need to let a couple family members have access, and didn't want a bunch of keys floating around. Besides, I can always change the lock code in about 10 seconds if I need to restrict access. Also my daughter doesn't have to carry a key, the only thing that would be better is having the ability to remote access change the lock code but for the price can't beat the functionality or convenience.

Never have seen the value in paying the premium for branded cables, these generic ones are just fine, don't get caught in the hype!
Dance Central
My daughter likes the game, I'm more of a Call of Duty player. But if you want to "bust a move" then this is your game.
Kinect Sports
Purchased for my daughter, fun game with a lot of sports on it. Works great with the Kinect addition to the Xbox 360.

Great to use for quick notes, sometimes it is just easier to jot something down versus typing it out on my iPhone.
Makita LCT200W 18-Volt Compact Lithium-Ion Cordless 2-Piece Combo Kit
Great deal on Amazon for this set, and its the more powerful 18-volt versus the lower voltage sets you normally see at these price levels. However I would not purchase at the normal price.
Friis Coffee Savor 16oz Stainless Steel
Works great to keep my coffee beans fresh for long periods of time.

You must be as addicted to coffee as I am, by the way your blog is hilarious, you should keep doing it!

ah Peet's, love it, but they aren't as convenient here in Portland as Starbucks and Dutch Brothers, which seem to be everywhere, almost as bad as Seattle.

I believe that Peet's is the original Starbucks, actually. The guys who founded Starbucks knew the guy who started Peet's, and basically followed his model, even buying their beans from Peet's.

According to Wikipedia, one of the Starbucks founders was originally Peet's partner. When Peet chose to move on, he sold the company to that guy. After a while that guy sold off Starbucks to focus on Peet's, with the stipulation that the two companies wouldn't compete in the Bay Area.
Makita T-01389 62-Piece Impact Drill-Driver Bit Set
Great all around set with many uses, perfect for those small jobs that creep up around the house.
Case-Mate - iPhone 4 Tie-Dye Tough Case
Colorful to say the least and offers great protection. Price was a bit high but it was a gift, not sure due to the price I would buy one for myself
Sporting News Today
I like Sporting News daily, current info and covers broad range of sports. Best of all it comes via the Zinio app on my iPad or I can read it on my laptop.
