With summer upon us and a still-high unemployment rate keeping the annoying demands of a job at bay now is a great time to spend your 9-5 curled up in a hammock with a beer cooler at the ready. However, good hammocks can be hard to find at your average neighborhood Sports Authority or Dick's Sporting Goods. Heard of the Internet? Great! Because unless you've already sold your laptop for rent money there are plenty of great online hammock shops waiting to sell you a great nap at a fair price. Fun Designs, Ultimate Comfort A fun, easy-to-use website and bold designs makes Lazy Bandido, http://www.lazybandido.com one of the best online hammock shops out there. By far the most unique and entertaining of the lot, they sell a line of Nicaraguan hand-woven hammocks with bold, attractive designs modeled after the Revolutionaries, Banditos, and Saints that give the region its personality and mystique. They preach the power of being lazy and the evils of hard work and with the superior comfort of their all-natural woven cotton hammocks, you'll soon be glad you've got nothing to do but spend your days napping under a tree.
