Funny Gifts for Adults

When it comes to funny, creative gifts my sister takes the cake.

For the rest of us gift-challenged when picking out adult presents, there are these:

At asingingphonegram.com you can send a Monkey Business Singing Telegram by calling 310-823-2027 for deliveries anywhere in the U.S. and international. You can have them delivered by phone or in person in song or poem. They have the lowest prices anywhere and the acts are great, they say. You can send telegrams for birthdays, anniversaries, love, or to let a prospective employer know you're the one for the job after an interview. You can also send a greeting card through the company to apologize, cheer up, or send a get well song. You can sympathize, make a date, be a secret admirer, send a thank you, flatter you boyfriend, girlfriend, or friend; etc. Grams are $15.00 and Visa and MasterCard are accepted.

Did you ever try to convince someone you were in one place when you were really some place else? Try alibicd.com which has alibi and excuse recordings on a CD to use when you're running later; etc. Featured once on the Howard Stern Show, the sounds are authentic from road construction to mechanics to honking horns in traffic. Twenty-five different sounds will make your story believable. Each soundtrack is approximately three minutes in length. From the airport to the train depot you can listen to a two-second sample of each one on the website (each sound effect sample is two seconds long). You can also buy the CD from amazon.com.

For a funny take on celebrities go to campchaos.com where you can listen to various made-up videos by clicking on the Idiot Box link to the left of the webpage. The hysterical prank calls like the voice of Sergeant Hartman from "Full Metal Jacket" calling a Wal-Mart and harassing the clerk, then the manager. You can also buy gear from the Camp Chaos store on its website like DVDs and CDs.
