zevia cola can
Track 4 from “Transistor”, by 311 -or a Star Wars Trilogy Sandwich

Okay, this one’s been on the shelf and now the hot weather is officially here, I thought it was time to send it out.

Awhile back, I noticed a google ad here on the site and thought, “Soda with Stevia? -NO WAY!” -I immediately shot out an email & Stacey Fujimura + the good folks at Zevia sent us out a sixpack of their soda.

Not Gardasil, But Definitely A Shpot Heard 'Round The World

g-shot
Once Upon A Time, sweet kind ladies like my adopted Aunt, who was recently made an official Saint by The Vatican, would get together and have quaint little sales parties discussing things like makeup and reusable plastic storage containers.

In another notch down the ratchet of our increasingly Britney-fied culture, Ladies who had long-ago abandoned their prim but sassy Doris Day dresses for -well maybe not Christina Aguilera Underpants

Stephen Colbert Makes Dean Kamen Remove Doritos From Water

dean kamen water filter stephen colbert doritos
I could go on about how Perpetual Hairstyle Makeover Candidate Dean Kamen saves the third world with a machine they can't afford, that will be taken right off the UNICEF trucks by warlords and sold to Idi Amin's grandchildren so they can run hexavalent chromium-removal experiments in Ye Olde Backyard Minefield, and how anything that evaporates at or near water's evap point may collect also (like hydrocarbons), if not allowed to escape in a very sneaky way. -AND how distilled water will literally pull the minerals right out of your bones and teeth if you don't add it back into the water for the lucky 3rd-worlders who Do see one of Dean's boxes, but Screwit! -Here's a funny vid after teh jump!:...[more]
