Brooklyn man wants you to burst bubble ... but one day at time

Stephen Turbek, 36, who works nine-to-five in the financial industry, spends his free time designing and producing interactive bubble wrap calendars - and his income is, well, popping.

Turbek, of Fort Greene, fashioned the pop-a-day calendar using a long sheet of paper with the month and dates printed in columns, then covering the whole thing with a sheet of bubble wrap.

He's selling them online for $30 to $50 a pop, and has already sold thousands, he said.

"Like many people, I really enjoy popping bubbles. I thought it would be fun to put it to some purpose," Turbek said.

There's even a market for the bubble calendar overseas. Turbek says he has shipped them to Australia, Latvia, Korea and Japan. Turbek has a German and Japanese language version of the calendar, and wants to produce even more language options next year.
