“Groovy Motherfucker”

Bizarre battery-powered cartridge-based contraption that allows you to "smoke" "cigarettes" without technically smoking.

(Rather splendidly, a google search reveals that "NJoy" is also the name of a brand of "personal massagers", so make sure not to get them confused. You might get a funny look if you put a "NJoy Personal Wand" between your lips in public)

Another common theme at the Sands today: Stickers to decorate devices. Ranging from artistic skins for your laptop, to "bling" stickers, resulting in lovely devices like these at the "Rhinestone It!" stand.

Portable boombox-type-thing with remote-controlled score displays, a countdown timer, etc.

It sounds a bit gimmicky and crappy, but it's something I desperately wanted a few years back when doing improv. I could definitely see Theatersports or Comedysportz troupes using it for away gigs.

I ate at Sensi this evening, which has its kitchen in the center of the restaurant, surrounded by walls of glass.

I was treated to the view of the steamer. Anyone who was squeamish about seeing live wriggling lobsters going in, and pink delicious ones coming out would not have had fun.
