Lots of it. So much so, they’re willing to spend ridiculously overpriced amounts for anything with a Ferrari logo on it. I can’t judge though. I’d probably have a similar bit of loyalty myself if I was giving a particular company hundreds of thousands of dollars too. Nevertheless, I’m sure plenty of Ferrari owners have dreamt of a morning in which they could wake up to a fresh cup of espresso from their uber special, limited edition Michael Schumacher Ferrari Helmet Espresso machine.

Concept for now. But all it takes is one aspiring entrepreneur and outrageous licensing fees for this simple concept to become reality. Any taker?

As we cross into this week’s hump day, we’re left looking at what we’ve accomplished so far, and where we’re yet to go. One thing that I always look ahead towards is what I plan on doing over the weekend. For me, the weekend is the best time of the week. I’m sure I’m not alone. While I’ve got my weekend booked, some may be looking for something to fill theirs with. For those who like little projects, the LED Mohawk Helmet created by “Garrett”, is something that just makes sense. I mean, nerds like flashy things (LED’s) and projects. Put them together and something resembling the LED Mohawk Helmet usually comes forth.

It’s no doubt bright, unsightly, and to some, obnoxious. But that’s what makes it so great. I can tell you that if I ever sit down and attempt this little ditty, I’d wear the hell out of that thing. Am I alone in my boat? Be sure to check out Garote’s LiveJournal if you’re feeling a little curious as to how it all went down.

Without a doubt, the “Funniest joke to poke fun at AT&T’s rural coverage award” goes to none other than “Ryan” and his friend “parawing742″ of YouTube. Parawing742 created a massive plexiglass map showing AT&T’s rather meager 3G coverage and affixed it to a helmet. Then they went to an AT&T store followed by a Verizon store. Capturing all the candid goodness was rather easy thanks to a wireless mike on Ryan and tailgating camera guy, Parawing742.

The whole point was for Ryan here to find a phone (and carrier) that gave him decent rural coverage so he could yak the night away. When all is said and done however, Ryan goes home empty handed. He did accomplish one thing though — making us laugh.

Check out the vid below as hilarity ensues.

Are you crawling around the internet this fine Thursday morning looking for the next novelty gift to give? Dear reader, you can stop your search and whip out your wallet because the USB Helmet Humidifier is just for you. Whether or not you are affected by humidity or even really care about it, explaining to someone the little racing helmet plugged in to your computer is just a humidifier and the resulting looks will surely bring at least a few smiles to your day. Whether at your desk connected by USB or by way of 3-AAA batteries for those dry mobile moments, the USB Helmet Humidifier is there for you. Just be care ful that it isn’t too close or cranking out too much moisture. Wouldn’t want your precious electronics getting too buddy buddy with all of those minuscule H2O particles now would you?

While I don’t have one to try out as to attest/detest to the effectiveness of such a gadget, the size and gimmicky appearance has me thinking it’s a no go. Still, if you’re on that quest I mentioned earlier, pull on in for a minute…
