Be you lazy, injured or amputated, basic chores become not so basic anymore. Shoveling snow is nearly impossible with only a pair of two inch nubs protruding from your torso. The Patrick Starfish jokes get old quick. And nub-slaps can only defend your honor so much.

For the first time since 1638, a lunar eclipse coincides with the winter solstice. Add the Ursid meteor shower, and the tonight's sky offers a triple dose of wintry glamor.

I know that it’s barely summer and you really don’t want to even start thinking about your winter wear for another few months, but I wouldn’t want any of you to miss out on the hottest styles of fall and winter 2010. The Beard Beanie is sure to be a game changer as this year’s cold season looms over the ...

If your the kind of man that works with his hands, you might want to make sure everyone knows that the creations that come from your hands are all yours. But first off, you might want to mark those paws of yours as a little more than simple personal body parts. The Copyright/Copyleft Gloves mark your hands as pieces of ...

No, R2-D2 didn’t get stuck outside overnight on the planet Hoth. This snow droid was hand crafted by one clever winter-y geek. And lord knows this winter has already spilled a crap load of snowy art material in my neck of the woods. Maybe the next snowstorm we can see a Snow Vader? Link

Look, even as a fan of the Snuggie, I think this whole Necky thing is a joke.

Mittens, in my brain, are completely associated with little kids. So when I see a full-grown adult donning a pair, I can’t help but coyly giggle ...

Not quite completely fingerless, but just enough so that you can access your touch screen phone, the Etre Touchy Gloves keep your hands as warm as possible, covering all of your fingers except the thumb and forefinger. Sure, it might be mustache-free, but that’s the price you have to pay. With only two fingers missing warmth, you might look a ...

I don’t know about where you’re from, how could I? But I do know that in these parts, winter means frigid temperatures. Jersey gets the best (and worst) of both worlds. Extreme heat and intense cold. The heat part is easy, all I have� to do is walk around naked. It’s the chilliness that starts getting tricky. Out come the ...

In the winter I usually like to grow a full-blown beard, as it helps to keep my face warm and crisp through the harsh snowy season. My skin, on the other hand, has an issue with the hair growth and personally holds me accountable. I’m pretty confidant that I’m allergic to my own hair. I get patches of dry skin ...
