22 Items That Will Allow You To Entirely Bacon Up Your Day



Pour a bacon martini
You’ve had a stressful day and you need to unwind. Why not combine the taste of Jimmy Dean with the sophistication of James Bond and pour yourself a martini made with bacon flavored vodka? It has all the flavor of morning nestled in the warm embrace of a nightcap. If they could just find a way to make a Hot-Pocket with bacon vodka…life would be complete.



You get up and jump in the shower with your bacon soap
It’s not enough that you just enjoy consuming and wearing bacon. You need to pick up the essence of bacon. You need to smell like bacon. Everyone loves the smell of bacon cooking. By default, everyone will love you. Mmmm, you smell like the inside of a Denney’s. And who doesn’t want to hang out with someone that smells of a Grand Slam Breakfast?



Bacon popcorn
No. Someone with good sense talks you out of the tattoo and into watching a movie. Gotta have popcorn. Old Orville Redenbacher thought of everything but this tasty concoction. He must have been too busy funneling money into making sure more of your corn popped to bacon infuse his product. Gotta figure this would make a fortune at movie theaters too. Don’t you hope that bacon popcorn is coming to a theater near you?



Enjoy your hobby by going to the range to shoot your bacon AK-47
You gotta let off some steam somehow. Why not pull the trigger on flavor and go Scarface on everyone with you Bacon AK-47? Everyone needs a hobby to help them release stress. This is my rifle, this is my gun. This is for fighting and this one’s part of a balanced breakfast.



You take pictures of models in bacon bikinis
You get to work. It’s time to get down and dirty with some fatback. You want to share your profound love of bacon with the world. The world and these gorgeous bacon covered models. The beauty of bacon mixed with the beauty of women; you couldn’t find a finer canvas for such a delicate medium. Bacon and art are together now and forever in your photographs. It’s edible art and it’s superb.

25 Everyday Technologies That Came from NASA



Though associated mainly with aerospace innovations, NASA holds a significant influence over daily life as well. Many people do not realize that everything from toys to sunglasses and even horseshoes have benefited from technologies originally intended for astronauts, shuttle flights, and other elements of space exploration. While some inventions stem directly from NASA and its collaborations, others simply involve vast improvements to existing designs. The following list contains a combination of technologies that went straight from NASA to consumers as well as ones that went on to streamline articles that were already available.

Grooved Runways:

Due to the Safety Grooving research program at NASA’s Langley Research Center, highway accidents under adverse weather conditions are down by nearly 85% in some areas. Aircraft tires have been measured to perform between 200% and 300% better when confronted with wet, slick runways. The program devotes itself to discovering ways of preventing hydroplaning, responsible for a number of car and aircraft accidents every year. Researchers discovered a method of creating thin grooves in concrete as a means of maximizing water runoff. Drier pavement means fewer hydroplaning-related accidents, and hundreds of airports and highways across the United States and the world have applied this system of grooves to astounding and relieving results. Beyond the vehicular, the groove method has also been applied to playgrounds, factories, refineries, and even swimming pool decks in order to reduce injuries from slipping.

Contact Lenses:

NASA, in conjunction with Paragon Vision Sciences, Inc., has developed hyperpurified delivery system – or HDS – technology as a means of learning more about polymer formation and testing how contact lenses operate in microgravity. HDS contacts do not contain water, resist deposits, and run a lower risk of harboring bacteria. Their rigidity renders them easier to handle and capable of keeping their shape longer than soft lenses and possess a structure that maximizes their oxygen efficiency. Paragon has furthered HDS technology by developing a contact lens that helps to reshape corneas without surgery while users sleep.

Outboard Motors:

Fishing and boating enthusiasts have NASA and Bombardier Motor Corporation of America for improved technology on outboard motors. Aluminum alloy initially created for the space shuttle and other equipment goes into creating strong, durable, and cost-effective pistons. Motors utilizing these pistons do not require oil changes, winterization, or regular tune-ups, and do not need any scheduled maintenance with normal recreational use any more than once every three years.
