Houdini 5-Piece Wine Gift Set

Saturday, October 20, 2012

OK let’s knock the product-description out of the way so we can get to the good stuff. Looks like you’ve got everything here to, you know, drink wine. The opener can draw a cork in seconds and spit it out, which is pretty cool, and then you can aerate to your heart’s content and all that. Also, it comes in a fancy gift box that practically screams “you’re a close acquaintance.” 

All right, now let’s talk about this guy:

Everybody says Harry Houdini was the greatest escape artist to ever live, but they’ve got it wrong. Dude just got off on being handcuffed, strait-jacketed, and buffeted violently in a barrel. Once he had gotten his jollies, OF COURSE he had to find some way to escape, and that’s the Houdini the public knew.

Now we’re not saying there’s anything wrong with a little handcuffing, et cetera. We here at Woot at certainly going to be the last ones to be casting stones in the bizarre-sexual-fetish department. But we think it’s time the curtain was finally drawn on the widespread misconception of Harry Houdini. You would learn some pretty nifty ways to escape from a safe if you were constantly begging women to lock you in one as punishment for being a ‘very, very bad boy,” too.

Directions

• Before first use: Wash in soapy water and rinse under faucet. Wash by hand after using, not in the dishwasher. To aerate red wine: Place Houdini Wine Shower on wine glass. Pour wine slowly through the Wine Shower into the glass creating gentle aeration.
