Convince people into thinking you actually know something by reading the Toilet Paper, a free email churning up current events to produce a water-cooler-ready shot of knowledge, with recent topics like the Lost finale, Jack Kevorkian's birthday, and SNL sketches that've been turned into movies, which thankfully doesn't include anything having to do with Pat. Oh wait. Damn. Get everything you need to know to be "interesting" at TheToiletPaper.com

Best of the Best
Like an intense game of Stratego, this month's Best Of features crazy surprises, and an illegally positioned flag surrounded by bombs
Emailed to Austin: RLT Industries
From a dot-com exec turned garage woodsmith, New Braunfels' RLT specializes in model kits of awe-inspiring Greek, Roman, and Medieval war machines requiring anywhere from a few hours to several days self-assembly, mostly using scissors and wood glue, and all under the premise of education (Richard the Lionheart's Acre-leveling siege engine "Bad Neighbor" launched projectiles that could crush 12 men -- the more you know!).
Best of all, this stuff is seriously affordable, even the battering ram. You've gotta see it to believe it.

Emailed to San Francisco: Textie
If you have an iPhone or iPod Touch but don't have unlimited texting, Textie's your app: it allows your broke ass to SMS and MMS anyone else who's got a web-enabled Apple device free of charge, including iPad users who'll ridicule you for not having unlimited texting as they extract their precious from its metallic/waterproof X-Pac sleeve.
App up and cancel your whopping 100 texts per month

Free: 3D Starter Kit
Upgrade to the 3rd Dimension: purchase a Samsung 3D TV and 3D Blu-ray Player, and get a 3D Starter Kit valued at $350, including a 3D Blu-ray Disc and two pairs of glasses so high-tech, people will assume you're from the future -- which is nonsense, because in the future you'd be wearing 3D disposable contacts.
Get all the information you could possibly need at Samsung.com

Emailed to Philadelphia: Overdue Industries
OI's slapping the covers of classic books onto 60lb acid-free paper notebooks, interspersing 15-20 pages of the actual volume (hopefully pictures!), and even throwing a cheeky library check-out card in the back. Current stock includes Sesame Street, Star Wars, and Nancy Drew, they can custom-rig anything you find on their 700-tome-strong Flickr page, and they'll also transform any book you've got sitting around that you're "a-ok with getting sliced and diced" -- just be sure not to do anything rash, they already have their own Nancy Drew stuff up for sale.
The shop's also stocking formerly-bookish magnets, key chains, and jewelry

Emailed to Seattle: Glass Bangers Hockey Shirts
Started in Seattle last fall by a Southie native frustrated by the lack of funny/cool hockey tees, GB's a growing collection of short-sleevers ranging from off-color numbers (the puck depicting "I'd Hit That"), to pop-cultural jobs (the Star Wars referencing Chewie Loves The Wings), to a bunch with old-school team logos, including the Seattle Metropolitans who, as the first American team to win the Stanley Cup, started a cherished Seattle sports tradition -- leaving town.
Avoid thinking about the Bs as you peruse a whole collection of tees celebrating the 2nd best way to put 'em on the glass

Emailed to DC: Couples Spark
Just launched by a DC-based developer, CS's a sounding board for couples to post their grievances/arguments/pubic hair quarrels and receive feedback from complete strangers in an effort to work things out/figure out who's just plain wrong, all inspired by its founder's chance viewing of The Marriage Ref, making it the most successful Seinfeld-inspired online relationship service since JDate.
Dare to post your own squabble, or better yet, just sit back and cast virtual stones
