This week I got a mystery package in the mail from SpaceMonkeyX himself, Rob Lammle. I wasn’t sure what was inside, but I was pleasantly surprised to find some awesome buttons featuring our mascot! It turns out that Rob’s crafty wife Andrea made them herself, and they turned out great. I’ll be ordering more from her soon, so if you’d like your very own Top Hat Sasquatch button, stay tuned!
Site Update: There will be some exciting changes to the site next week, as well as a very cool interview coming up on Bubble Pipe Theater, so stay tuned for that too!

Welcome to Top Hat Sasquatch, formerly called Saturday Morning Central. Things have been pretty quiet around here lately, but as of today, we’re ready to kick the site into high gear. You’ll notice we now have an amazing illustration in our header by the awesome Alex Deligiannis. Besides the new design, we’re excited to start posting fun and geeky content again as well as getting the podcast started, which is called Bubble Pipe Theater.
Now would be a good time to follow us on Twitter, subscribe to our RSS feed, and keep an eye out. Things are going to get interesting around here!

Video games have changed quite a bit over the years. Graphics have gotten from blocky to photo-realistic. The device used to control the on-screen action has changed quite a bit as well. Pop Chart Lab chronicles the game controller advances from 1972 to 2010 in poster form.
The sticks-and-buttons controllers introduced in the ’70s have given way to motion-based devices like the Wii remote and PlayStation Move. Pop Chart Lab’s design is tremendous but I’d like to see at least a nod to the latest evolution—the controller-less Xbox Kinect.
Slide on over to PCL to see the full poster and buy your own 24 x 36″ copy.

Fellow guitar players: are you worried about how you’ll carry your 6-string come Halloween when you’re sporting your best Captain America: The First Avenger costume? I know I am. Luckily Whipping Post Leather has us covered.
Their line of leather guitar cases are insanely expensive and remind me of the the upcoming leather-and-pouch-covered superhero film. The case above retails for $825, but it doesn’t look like a hard case. That’s a lot of dough for the equivalent of a fancy gig bag.

Cupcakes are one of life’s most perfect substances. No one can pass up a delicious cupcake topped with a glob of sweet icing. On the other hand, I would have to give pause before sinking my teeth into these Muppet-themed creations by Cupcake Occasions. The UK-based baker served up cakes topped with everyone’s favorite Muppet characters.
These are such a work of art I don’t think I could bring myself to destroy it by biting into it. Unless perhaps the Miss Piggy ones taste like bacon.
