Levitating Hover Scooter

The hover scooter provides an unprecedented experience in personal transportation, levitating inches above the ground and speeding a single rider across level land on a cushion of air.
It hovers just a few inches above the ground and travels at up to 15 MPH.
Acceleration is handled via the throttle ond clutch on the handlebars. To increase acceleration, simply lean forward. Breaking is accomplished by turning off acceleation, and will take about twenty feet of coasting. Turning is handled via leaning left or right.
The New York Times calls it a “miniature flying saucer with handlebars.”

The Macallan 1948 - Whisky

Selected from only three oak sherry casks from Spain, a mere 366 bottles of The Macallan 1948 have been released - a truly collectible treasure. Each bottle and accompanying certificate bears a unique date, corresponding to one of the 366 days of 1948, a leap year. Certificates have been individually signed by David Robertson, Whisky Maker and Macallan Nose. The whisky possesses a remarkable character, imbued with an unusual phenolic note accompanying the rich, spicy, resinous, fruit character which typifies The Macallan.
