I heart capitalism.

I haven't gotten the Wall Street Journal for a couple months now because they jacked the price up on me. I held out, and this morning they called and backed down. I win. But so does the journal.

I got an ad in gmail to this ridiculous site: www.wrinkydinks.com
They sell such dog poop-related products as:

• Chocolate Doo Drops - chocolate candy in the shape of (a disturbingly realistic) dog plop.
• Poop Candles - ditto
• Dog Poop 2009 Calendar - sigh
  

On a serious note, they do offer a fine urn for your dead dog's ashes: Dog Memorial Urn
Of course, these guys are also the proprietors of www.bikesnbones.com which produced today's QOTD.

QOTD

"Pirate and Biker Clothing, Collectibles, and Gifts"
- Motto of www.bikesnbones.com

I hope Mr. Wrinky Dink and Mrs. Bikes 'n Bones are sitting on a beach drinking pina coladas... laughing their asses off, right now.

Too great. I heart capitalism. It's freedom, baby.
The freedom to create poop candy and haggle over prices and succeed or fail and whatever.
later... yow, bill

PS - Almost forgot...

Book: Watchmen
Review: 3 bill-stars (out of 5)... worth it
This book barely made the cut. It's a comic book; I'm not a big fan.
It was a really good comic book, but still a comic book.
It gets 3 stars mostly for being different. The plot/characters/everything is pretty, um, comic book-like.
Which figures.
Now, on to the movie... in IMAX!!!
