Ninja, why don’t you got a iPod yet? Son, iPoor!

This goes out to all y’all ninjas on the hustle day in day out while cats walk by left and white with their pretty little white headphones. You have two options:

1) Be ninja-ish and rob them

or

2) Be even more ninja-ish and cop this shirt

Paris Hilton…Celebrity Ninja?

OK, so some famous people are obviously ninjas… Think Bill Clinton or Wesley Snipes Rick James, bitch.

But the newest trashy gossip says that there may be more than meets the eye with Paris Hilton. I know it’s unbelievable, but reliable sources indicate that Miss Paris may be shedding her "dumb blonde" act in order to show her true skills as an elite hacker.
It’s reported that she "hacked into Lindsay Lohan’s Blackberry and sent offensive messages to her friends from it."

Lohan’s spokeswoman says that whoever did it sent "disgusting and very mean messages that everyone thought were coming from Lindsay. They weren’t. We now have lawyers looking into it. Some people think Paris may have been involved because the wording of the messages sounds very familiar."

(ed: don’t be mistaken, she still gets no respect)

The Life Aquatic

This hanging lamp, designed for Murano Due by Patrick Jouin, consists of a bunch of glass bubbles, suspended from a lit base. They are striking.

If you can get your hands on them, cop them, but don’t tell my jealous ass.

Attaaaaaaack… of the Mutant Tomatoes

A Japanese farmer in Kyoto recently harvested a tomato threee times the normal size and… wait for it… with the face of a chinese dragon! Now if that’s not some ninja ish, I don’t know what is.

For all you urban and suburbarn ninjas… This ish is the Soundbomb!

Soundbombing used to be a pretty ill series of hip-hop records from Rawkus. Now you can add it to the growing list of modern-day ninja weaponry. This cartoonish device is a play on the idea of graffiti and ownership of space. Dubbed the Soundbomb by its creators, the clear plastic sphere has a motion sensor, recording module and two loudspeakers. It’s pretty straightforward: Record a message, hang up your Soundbomb and wait for unsuspecting passersby to be pelted with auditory enlightenment.

Y’all ready for some Watur?

Naw, it ain’t the newest hit single out of the durty durty south. It’s the newest needlessly fly thing that I’ve laid my ninja eyes on. So I know, you thought your auto-tinting, fingerprint-reading, sandwich-making door in your Bill-Gates mansion was dope, but IS IT A WATERFALL? I thought not.

The Watur is an actual door, but instead of being made of wood, glass, stone or some other practical material, it’s constructed of falling water. It’s basically an empty door-frame on hinges with sprinklers at the top and a basin at the bottom. Pretty simple, yes, but gangsta-Scarface status nonetheless.
I wish a ninja would try to break in on me now. He might get rained on!

Epicurean ninjas are tender with their pepper and salt… Just so…

These salt and pepper stems (fancy shakers, for y’all un-cultured ninjas) are truly for heads with distinguished taste. Their unique design, constructed of pyrex glass and cork, allows "better control over the condiments by a very light tapping from the horizontal position (as if letting ash fall from a cigarette)." Or a blunt, for all
you non-smokers.

the i sapidi stems, by designer alessandro loschiavo, are available from
