Where is my Pick?

Don't know if any of you have ever heard of Van Winter (I hadn't until they sent me their press release with a Powerpoint presentation attached sometime last year), they're the new Picksation (yeah their words not mine). Seriously, they are a company that incorporate picks into their jewelry and accessories. Kind of an interesting idea...and quite helpful I'm sure for absent- minded musicians who forget to bring extra picks to their gigs.

What's that your pick went flying into the audience? Well just reach down and pull a spare out of your belt. Oh crap! You forgot to re-fill your belt after last weeks show? Thank goodness you remembered to wear your F-ing Rad Skull Ring which also doubles as a pick. You may laugh...but dammit... I think I'd be happy to have the belt with the pick filled buckle, you never know when you might encounter a group of Chinese Star flinging Ninjas (you know since they don't usually have their assistants call ahead to schedule a 3 o'clock with you), those picks may save your life!

I believe they also have a Cross Pendant, you know a la
Cruel Intentions style only instead of Coke you can keep what in it? Your pick of course!


The 4x4 Belt Buckle
(yeah thats right you can go off-roading with it)


The Fleur de Lis Ring




They also do make furniture for your guitars/basses...you know so that your friends can admire it (from a distance of course) when you invite them to come over and sit on your Ikea couch.
