If you have trouble reading this email, go to the online version 08/08/13 A bird in the hand is worth two in the weekend.     PERK ALERT Your Summer’s New Wireless Speaker   Your Perks: 1) 20% off the HiddenRadio—a beautiful, powerful (and beach-ready) wireless speaker. 2) An iPhone case that also works as four pro-grade camera lenses. 3) 27% off Spikeball, your new favorite beach game. It’s like volleyball... but better.   411: The wireless HiddenRadio; the iZZi Orbit; a Spikeball set     ... BUELLER? Cameron Frye’s Place Is for Sale   Cameron Frye. You remember him. From Ferris Bueller. Prank called Ed Rooney. Lived in that sweet mid-century-modern house where his dad’s Ferrari crashed through a window. Well, turns out that actual house is now for sale. It’s got four bedrooms, four bathrooms and great views. Oh, right, and a new window.   411: The Ben Rose Home, chicka-chicka here     BACKGROUND CHECK Something Interesting About Wallpaper...   So there’s this new Apple program. It finds your GPS location, and then turns your desktop background into an artsy rendering of a satellite map of your current location. Try it the next time you’re in Helena. Or Helsinki. Or some other location that doesn’t start with an H. Like Sheboygan. Or Rancho Cucamonga. Or...   411: Satellite Eyes, become more geographically aware here     BENCH WARMER A Little Pre-Fall Wardrobe Prep   You know how sales work. A store waits until you no longer need chunky cardigans, flannel shirts or Scandinavian ski gloves and then sells them at criminally low prices. Except in this case, Bench & Loom is doing that now. Yes, right before you need all of those things. No, you shouldn’t question their motives.   411: Bench & Loom Sale, make out like a dapper bandit here     FUN-SIZE You: Now a Tiny Action Figure   Important things are happening in Germany. Things like a crew of 3D-printing gurus who’ll scan your body and then make a terrifyingly realistic, 1:8 scale replica of it. Just book an appointment, head to Hamburg and then take home a little figurine doppelgänger. Twinsies...   411: Twinkind, book the strangest appointment of your life here     FOOS GOLD Open Your Beers with a Foosball Player   Here’s something you probably never wondered: what happens to foosball players when they retire? Here’s the answer you probably never expected: they end up on this website where they’re turned into incredibly vintage and perfectly functional bottle openers. Nice to see they’re still being productive.   411: Foosball Bottle Opener, don’t act like you don’t need this here UrbanDaddy is pure editorial. You can't buy love from the Daddy.
