Here are a few gems from a recent issue of Business Week magazine:

1. Evian is introducing a new drink, called the 'Palace Bottle', which they bill as an "elite hydration experience." Ha, ha! I can't wait for the day when I can look my foes in the eye, and give them this real punch-in-the-gut response that my hydration experiences have been more 'elite' than theirs. The Palace Bottle will hold Evian's usual water, but will only be available in clubs, hotels, and restaurants. The key is presentation - before serving, waiters will remove the plastic cap (and discard it in a carefree manner) and replace it with a stainless steel spout. Ahhh...talk about living the dream.

2. Princess International Inc. offers for sale an innovative alarm clock guaranteed to get you out of bed in the morning. The clock has an attached whirlybird which, at the time of alarm, takes off. You must track it down, catch it, and return it to the base to turn off the alarm. It is only $25. Get one while supplies last!
