Default A new wine glass with a nose notch!

I thought I had seen nearly every type of wine glass. But I was wrong.
A new Hammacher Schlemmer catalog arrived today, and it included a
wine glass with a notch for your nose. It is supposed to get your nose
in the glass so you can really smell the wine well.To prove that I am
not making a joke, go to http://www.hammacher.com/publish/740...QSearch&ls=DH#
.. At US$ 49.95, I do not plan to order one.

Hold on - was the catalogue dated 1st April?

And, hey, what about the opportunities for personalisation - custom
sizing!!!!!!!!!!!!

And for really tiny people, notches for the ears !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Somehow this reminds me of the Opti-Grab glasses from the
old Steve Martin movie, "The Jerk".

Amazing.
