Jun 28 2007The PushPin Light
The PushPin Light serves not only as a desktop lamp, but also as a message board which you can pin your memos and reminders to. You turn the light on and off by pushing the pin unit down, and you can get it for $50 from Design Town. Or you can be like me and build your own. And by build your own I mean stick push pins into a light bulb. It doesn't exactly function, but it does ruin a perfectly good light bulb.

And just think, when things go bad, you can pull out the biggest pushpin in the world and stab an intruder!
Firsty first first!

Blah. I'm going to be selling one very similar, only mine will come complete with exposed wiring. All for half the cost!

From such inspired "inventions" as the stapler-mouse and the coffe mug-pen cup.
