Product RED is a joke (I said this as early as 2006), as if most weren’t aware of this by now.
To think that you can buy a Product RED gift bow that is Made In China by labors who are paid and treated sub-standardly seems only fitting. What better way to top a bunch of paper wrapped around a consumeristic gift than a gift bow made by laborers in China being made less than a dollar a day. Way to go America. Way to change the world.
Our first tomato of the season was picked this morning. A few days inside ripening and we should be good to go. Woot!

Are We That Desperate For Heroes At This Point?
A pitchman who pitches sham-wows and Oxi-Clean, two indispensable products that only a 21st Century American could ever dream of needing from a 24 hour shopping network . . .
A bizarre former pop star who lived in a decadent NeverLand and sought eternity through countless additions of plastic to his face . . .
A former cover girl whose claim to fame is that America thought she looked good in a bathing suit, a had nice rack and who capitalized on that body to make money . . .
For all of that we mourn.
For all of that we weep.
For all of that we turn our attention for a week.
For all of that we start Facebook groups.
For all of that we devote 24/7 news coverage.
For all of that we give our allegiance to our heroes.
Meanwhile, quietly and subtly, the simple march on.
To You Billy Mays!
To You Michael Jackson!
To You Farah Fawcett!
