The worst thing about flying is the excrutiatingly boring hours when you can't use your iPod or are done with Us Weekly and have to resort to browsing the SkyMall catalog. In some instances, however, you find some amazing gems.

This time I was drawn to the two-page spread dedicated to the ugly-ass Gravity Defyer shoes that have springs in them (so you can "catapult your career with the elegant shoe of the future"). The most intriguing part of the page? The "inventor", Alexander Innovation Wizard. With a face like that and a pose like that on the company logo, you know the dude's a winner... Imagine the photo-shoot: "I'm gonna put my hand like that, so it looks like I'm a wizard". Hawt.
