MADE IN THE U.S.A.: The only Kickstarter campaign I have ever contributed to was for Flint & Tinder. I was impressed with their vision, their level of communication throughout the launch process, and most of all, the quality of their product. I am a fan of their 100% made in America underwear. I have made several orders since my original delivery. The tragedy in Bangladesh may have a wee silver lining in that more and more consumers are looking for garments that are, like once upon a time, made here in the states. This, then, can only be considered good news. And it’s not just apparel.
MEANWHILE…in Bangladesh.
I’LL DRINK TO THAT: As is the case with most attention getting “studies” like this, a little perspective and a lot of skepticism is called for. Or, perhaps a hastily called happy hour?
THE DAPPERED TAPPER:
INDENTURED SERVITUDE: Have you ever thought that having to work for free as an “intern” was a load of baloney? So does this guy. And he matters.
I STARTED A JOKE…and it led to tackle tightening. I wonder what George Clooney is thinking right about now? Because this right here? Aghast does not begin to describe how I feel about this. And while we’re down there…
SOYLENT GREEN IS NOT PEOPLE: For the life of me I cannot even imagine why someone would want to name their “food of the future” after a notorious product from a 70’s dystopian cult flick. But maybe I’m missing something?
OCHO OH NO: Really? Sigh. Meanwhile, all of you who want to see the Shannon Sharpe Styleometer return, raise your hands.
INCOMING!

Bring back The Nanigans! Bring back The Nanigans! ;D
(Great job over here too though.)
why do smart people drink more? Maybe so they can put up with the morons they’re surrounded with.
Couldn’t agree more about that Soylent stuff. And while we are on the subject, hasn’t that been done before? It’s basically Ensure with hipper marketing.
