Ice Balls, Anybody?

 I got something in my email recently about a special deal on a "Professional Ice Ball Maker." I hadn't known that such things existed, let alone at the "discount" price of $120. Upon searching the internet, I've found various types of ice sphere makers, ranging in price from $18 for a double sphere tray available at the Museum of Modern Art gift store, to $244 at the Japan Trend Shop for a device that uses gravity and heat to make a sphere out of a large cube of ice. I know that cocktails are big right now, and I can see an upscale bar shelling out bucks for this item, but I don't know many people that would pay $150 for one. Perhaps I'm hanging out with the wrong crowd!
