Christmas is coming and the Turducken is getting fat.Greetings holiday shoppers, welcome to the 2014 shopping registry gift guide! Although being "the most wonderful time of the year", the stress of the holidays adds up and can quickly become enough to turn any jolly sugarplum into an angry Grinch. Bah humbug to that!We at iamtedking would like to make your holiday shopping an enjoyable and speedy affair so that you have more time to pony up to the serve-yourself eggnog bar and bring in the festive yuletide spirit. Fret not my frineds, the more brandy you add to your 'nog, the less your cholesterol skyrockets!* In fact, why not whip up a spiced hot toddy or yule 'nog, cozy up by your computer, and finalize your holiday shopping right about... now! The holidays are a time to be creative. The sneaky location whereuponst to place your mistletoe, how you'll adorn the center of your festive dinner table, or tinkering with family recipes are all examples of holiday originality. Along those lines of creative entrepreneurialism comes UnTapped.

Taking a page directly from the real-foods-movement, this all natural energy is packed with amino acids, electrolytes, and a great carbohydrate ratio to provide an initial punch of energy as well a longer burn to fuel your rides, ski runs, trail runs... or quickly power you up amid the chaos of the holidays.

Unless you have a winning lottery ticket in your stocking, you're likely not hiring a personal soigneur to tag along with you 365 days a year and provide you with a muscle relieving daily massage.

I say it time and again, with enough patience bicycles will save the world! An archetypical example of that is the work of World Bicycle Relief. Building very durable bicycles for well deserving people in Africa, the simple two-wheeled machine provides an incredible sense of liberty while allowing for young people to attend school, seek and/or provide medical care, create jobs, and overall raise those in need from poverty. While buying a bike is an incredible way to help a person directly, there are other tremendously helpful ways to assist WBR; see all that you can do here.

There you have it folks. If you still have shopping to do after going through this list, I'm stunned. But you can probably wrap it all up here.* I have no idea what I'm talking about when it comes to booze offsetting the effects of eggnog on one's cholesterol. Heck, it probably exacerbates it.
