Celebrate the Summer of 2007 with the New Fifth Millennial Edition of the Stonehenge Watch?
The Stonehenge Watch™ is specially crafted to keep the integrity of the original construction of Stonehenge, and thus, when opening the watchcase, can use the built-to-scale model of Stonehenge as a shadow clock to tell time, mark the four seasons and note the passage of years. The Stonehenge Watch™ is modeled after an old-fashioned railroad pocket watch and has been handsomely constructed to also include an analog quartz watch on one side (for those who insist on modern methods of time-telling) and a relief of Stonehenge on the other.

Gas-Saving Moment of the Day: Find a Scooter
If you do a lot of city driving, buying a highly efficient scooter for warm-weather months makes a good deal of sense. Scooters can get upward of 90 mpg (sometimes well over 100), they're cheap to insure and are perfect for making short jaunts across town.
You can get your hands on a decent used model for around $1,500, and even the most expensive ? which are more like small motorcycles ? only cost around $6,000. Scooter sales are up 24% compared to this time last year, and the industry thinks that has to do mostly with high gas prices. This makes sense because sales of less fuel-efficient bikes, like those sold by Harley-Davidson, are down 23% this year after continuously hitting record sales year after year for two straight decades.
It's important to keep in mind that scooters usually top out around 45 mph and are ideal only for street-to-street, gridlocked city traffic. You also might find them severely lacking in safety features (the one they have is called a "helmet") and a very poor choice for winter. Still, for saving gas money on a short commute, it's hard to beat a scooter.
