Buy America Online
America may be for sale in the halls of Congress, but little bits of the USA are also peddled online. Everyone's in line to make a buck off our history, culture, and Joie de vivre. In keeping with this tidal wave of profit-mongering, we present a survey of America for sale.
The Daily Show with Jon Stewart Presents America (The Book) Teacher's Edition: A Citizen's Guide to Democracy Inaction
No one typifies the wholesale soulless marketing of America more than The Daily Show. The host, whose name has been stricken from all nicomp obelisks, pylons, and monuments, positions himself as a deep thinker until he thinks himself into a corner: then he's a comedian again. Our first amendment protects his right to publish a book and your right to purchase it.
Buy it for the humor, not the political insight. Half a story makes for a killer punchline but probably won't get you into the doors of Mensa. Have a good laugh without taking themselves to seriously.
America - The Complete Greatest Hits
We expect a compendium of America's greatest hits to include at least one rendition of God Bless America, America the Beautiful, and Horse With No Name. One out of three is pretty good. America The Soft Rock Band took America The Country by storm in the 1970's. They played county fairs in the heartland and Renaissance fairs when their tights came back from the cleaners. Enjoy this heartfelt collection of top 40 hits, except for "Timothy", which is still pretty creepy and we're not exactly sure what it's about.

Black & Decker AAW100 8-Inch Auto Wrench Adjusting Wrench
In America they have their own measuring system, referred to as SAE or non-metric. Attributed to the Society of Automotive Engineers, any self-respecting mechanic requires a set of SAE tools in order to fix American stuff. The Black & Decker AAW100 adjustable wrench adapts easily to SAE fittings up to 1 1/4 inches. In the spirit of international cooperation the device also may also be configured to work with metric sizes up to whatever 1 1/4 inches equates to in millimeters.
SAE is not difficult to understand. Many common household devices and contrivances continue to be constructed with SEA-specificed nuts, bolts, and screws. Plan to keep appropriate tools on-hand for both types of measuring systems. We're here to help.
A toolkit or a single wrench males a great gift for newlyweds. Almost everything they get will be almost useless when the clothes dryer needs to be disassembled. Your thoughtful gift of hand-tools will be appreciated long after the china has been put aside for paper plates.
