PowerCurl – Got it

I got it

I found out that if you hit their site and create an account, they’ll send you to a simple survey (age, race, gender, religion, interests, income, etc). Take the survey (only takes a minute) and they’ll give you a $20 credit.

The PowerCurl is only $9.99, and $5 shipping.. So that makes it FREE!

Now this thing is just kewl.. I have got to get one of these.

Designed by the quirky community and apple enthusiasts worldwide in 24 hours, the quirky PowerCurl is a clip on cord wrap for Apple’s 60W and 85W MagSafe Power Adapter. PowerCurl wraps both cords (plug end & MagSafe end) around the device and allows for easy and quick cord wrapping. The Curl, as we like to call it, makes it easy to unplug and pack up quickly without having to untangle your extension cords the next time you need to set up shop.

The included clip enables the plug end of your cord to clip to itself just like your MagSafe end does.

Fear those heated power adapters no more – PowerCurl elevates the power adapter off the ground or desk for improved air circulation and cooling.

They got some real sharp cookies over at the Vicksburg Post..

“Business is slow, and I think that’s due not only to the influx of rooms but obviously the overall economy as well. We’re bracing for the winter months to be pretty bad,” said Paul Patel, regional director of operations for Southern Hospitality Services, which operates four hotels in Vicksburg, including two built since last summer.

I’ve worked in Vicksburg for the last 4 years or so, and in that time I’ve seen about 5 new hotels built, and more currently under construction. They’re popping up like weeds, and we’ve all wondered how they can make any money. It’s not like the casino’s pull in that many people…
