Have You Ever Wanted to Be a Pod Person?

You can buy your very own pod and walk around inside it. It's called the "Nubrella" and it looks sort of like you're walking around under a shrunken version of the top turret of a B-17, without the twin machine guns.

The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette has the story and video.

Besides its large size, the inconvenient size of the "handy carrying case" and that it is several times more expensive than the collapsible umbrellas that easily fit into a briefcase or purse, it just looks like a pain in the ass to use.

It would trash the logos of Travelers' Insurance, though. And Mary Poppins would have fallen like a rock under one of them.
