Presents Of Mind
published on 28th September, 2011

I don’t know about you, but I have definitely wanted a lava lamp since I was eight and, since then, have dreamed of all the cool things I would put in a house that I lived in when I ‘grew up’. These things include magnetic poetry so all my house guest can leave me little messages every time they visit (though they always seem a little inappropriate), a bad-ass chess set, and a Rubiks Cube shaped alarm clock that you can set by twisting various layers.

Unfortunately I’m yet to get any of those things, but on the plus side we’ve found somewhere that sells all of the above. Presents of Mind is a treasure trove of excellent things to become the envy of your house guests, impress your friends with witty prezzies and become the master of all things novel and fun.

Since perusing these goodies, life seems like a land of opportunity. I now have a holiday plan, and that is to finish at least four 1000+ piece puzzles with such pictures as Hieronymus Bosch’s ‘Garden of Earthly Delights’, Gustav Klimt’s ‘The Kiss’, and M. C. Escher’s ‘Drawing Hands’. Did you know they make 4D chess set’s now!? Oh modern world. Goodbye boredom, hello popularity!
