The good news? It's almost time for a few days off. The bad news? Your flight is probably
already delayed. Before you search for a Valium or consider jabbing the armrest-hogging guy's ribs, reach into that seat-back pocket and pull out SkyMall. Return tray tables to the upright position: Part two of a two-part series begins after the jump, featuring a laser comb, a suicide-assisting neck traction device and, uh, a day (of the week!) clock.

Traveling this week? Yeah, so are millions of people. Well, while you're stuck on the tarmac for five hours with the toilets backing up and a 7-month-old raising hell nearby, reach into that seat-back pocket and pull out SkyMall. Everyone's favorite aeronautic shopping sensation is actually a catalog made of catalogs. You'll find products from places like Sharper Image, Hammacher Schlemmer and Frontgate — 98% of which have a similar distinguishing trait: They're not useless, but no one really
needs them! Fasten your seat belts: Part one of a two-part series begins after the jump, featuring hot dog cookers, robotic sharks and luggage made for wine!
