Lindsay Lohan's whirlwind life of acting, modeling, singing, and tumultuous relationships sure keeps our Pop team on their toes. But the one that manages to stay constant in her life is a gadget that seems to be a staple in her everyday look — her cell phone! Over the years, she's definitely rocked a variety of handsets, so much so, that I thought I'd take the liberty to point out just how many.

The official invites for the special media event on Apple's campus for October 14 have already started rolling in, with each invite featuring an unidentified notebook that says "The spotlight turns to notebooks," at the very bottom. At 10 a.m. PDT next Tuesday, Steve Jobs will get up in front of an eager audience to announce the new MacBook and MacBook Pros, which will feature a total redesign and major upgrades. The crew at Boing Boing have already predicted that it will have a 13.3-inch diagonal length. Here's what else you can expect:
Yeah, I know sometimes you want to put your laptop on your lap, bed, or a pillow, like Carrie does, but if you're going to, please use protection. And if the usual laptop fans out there bother you, and you need something that screams goofy fun then how about this USB-powered Penguin Cooling Fan ($25)?
Don't worry, no one will think you take yourself too seriously — and your laptop won't overheat with Penguin's fans going (there's also a Doggy version)!
But . . . it is an animal, and I'm not sure if it says "grownup." Actually, I'm sure it does not say "grownup," but do you care?
Remember Real World: San Diego when two of the guys dressed up as Mario and Luigi? I loved it, and hope every year that two guys will stroll into the Halloween party I'm at as the Super Mario Brothers.
If this is the year you or your boyfriend is going to dress up as the legendary plumbing/Princess-saving brothers, then let me help you get started with the top of your costume — the hats! The green Luigi hat and red Mario hat are available from the same Etsy seller for $20 a piece and are embroidered to Italian stallion video game perfection!
Why yes, I have been looking for an excuse to put my iPhone in my mouth, Harmonica iPhone App guy! The Harmonica iPhone App — silly pitches aside — is a totally hilarious new addition to the App Store, and sort of unbelievable.
To make music out of your "harmonica" you just put your phone up to your mouth and move it around as you (sort of) would a real harmonica. You don't have to slobber on it. In fact, don't. It just needs to be near your mouth, so no funny business.
Make some music, entertain some people, have a new party shtick! Just $1 for your jazzy pleasure.
Martha Stewart has some directions for how to make a monitor cozy from an old issue of Blueprint, which reminded me of the monitor cozies I created for my boyfriend's two monitors last year. Lest you get discouraged by how nice and fancy Martha's version is, just check out the ones I made on my own, with just a bit of quick measuring and side-seam sewing. I also added a lining as well as a decorative fabric, since, like Martha says, it adds a little bit of color to the room.
Of course, hers are made much more carefully, where I'm more of a sew-by-the-seat-of-my-pants kind of gal. For instance, she adds gussets, and I don't even know what a gusset is.
