This is a deep-fried chicken patty topped with swiss cheese, tucked inside a sliced Krispy Kreme original glazed doughnut. In my opinoin, it’s not food, it’s a dare…although, honestly, I can’t help thinking it would be better if they threw in some bacon.
In our pursuit of a functional magazine, to supplement our consumption of fashion magazines and websites, which have loads of pretty pictures interspersed with a small amount of intellectual drivel, I wanted to share Wired magazine’s product review page with you. Although I think I actually need all of these products, the reviews are thorough and comprehensive. And the products are awesome: power tools galore (plus that lovely toolbox pictured at left), a portable microwave oven, a toilet-paper holder/iPod dock, and something I didn’t even know I needed until now, the Dyson Motorlight Floorlamp.
Sweet! that floor lamp is only $1000!
Yes please! Is there some way I can volunteer for this?? Sounds like Sci-Fi but researchers are trying to insert a third strand of DNA into our standard double-helix. I totally want one. (warning: you might have to read this article slowly to understand what they are talking about)
Whoa. That was interesting. I made the mistake of reading the Scientific American article it was based on, and now my head hurts. I kind of got lost around page 4, but I do know a lot more about genes now – what a fascinating field of study! In conclusion – I’m sold, let the human experiments commence!
This just goes to show that Science Fiction really should be renamed Science That Just Hasn’t Happened Yet, or Future Science.
I cannot decide if I like these shoes or not, they’re on Gilt Groupe right now. I do love Vivienne Westwood, and jelly shoes bring back memories (ok, they bring back memories of being made fun of by some nasty sixth graders because my neon green jelly sandals did not match my home-made rainbow fairy costume, but jelly shoes are now super retro cool and those mean girls are probably fat and married to some knuckle-dragging mountain man and living in a double-wide in Orick, so there.) Anyways, do I love these or hate them?!?!
Plastic shoes?
well, its a tricky thing, and I understand your hesitation. This trend is appealing to me because the shoes look so clean and minimal – no lines, no embellishments. However, that is the only plus side I can come up with. I too remember the days of jellies and frankly would not want to be reminded of them every time I look down at my feet. Secondly, because I remember those days, I recall that my feet do not like the feel of plastic on my feet. Ok, I just thought of another plus side though – that the colors can be so vibrant, its almost like you’re wearing drops of candy on your feet….. hold the phone – thats a brilliant idea! Shoes made of candy! I’ll get working on that right now!

It would definitely be better with some bacon…. and then wrapped in a blueberry pancake, top it off with some salsa and throw it all in a commemorative bag – yum.

Oh my gosh! That was the funniest thing I’ve seen in a long time… I am kinda hungry now…

I know, it had the same effect on me – on one hand, it’s repulsive, on the other hand, maybe you want to try just one little bite…
