Introducing eTrays.net. In a desperate, perhaps even pathetic, attempt to regain some badly battered street cred after a disastrous Valentine’s Day fiasco involving three pigeons, an ice cream cone and a small white rose, me and bestest programmer mate Tom are introducing eTrays to the world.

Think Tank. $225.00. Food for thought, eh? [Thank you, thank you, we’ll be here all week, folks!] This glowing life-like brain in a bubbling self contained unit, is much like the ones from the 1950’s horror films.
