Grado GR10e in-ear headphones review

Grado GR10e 4

It’s almost comical. One of the best in-ear headphones (earphones) available at any price comes in a package that isn’t nearly as nice as some of the cheapest headphones available. Not only that, there’s an embarrassing selection of only three pairs of tips, no mic and … no case? Are you kidding me? Okay, they […]

Have no fear, Mighty dog poo bag dispenser is here!

mighty dog

It’s been 10 years since we had a dog, but when we did, we just let her outside to do her business and then complained when we’d accidentally step in her business while walking around our yard. That’s what happens when you live in a rural area like I do, but for city-dwelling dog owners,

MiniWing CamileR100 1 1

If you have been following any of the Tour de France as it rounds its way through Europe, you have seen a segment or two captured by a handlebar, helmet or seat mounted GoPro. These shots often capture the essence of the race: clearly depicting the speed, endurance, congestion and competitive nature of the event. But not

The Braven 105 Bluetooth speaker is as active as you are

Braven Active 105 4

Just when I finished reviewing the huge Braven BRV-XXL, they released the smallest of the Braven family; the Braven 105 Active. The 105 is made for just that—an active lifestyle. While you could conceivably get more exercise jogging while carrying  the 18 lb. BRV-XXL, it’s obviously not practical—and just plain weird. The Braven 105, however,
