Protecting the quality of your product, enhancing your brand's shelf appeal

Kinda appealing packaging I found at work while taking out the recycling.

pi-pump® with flexible pipette holding socket and special release valve. Many years of trouble-free use have made the pi-pump® one of the world's most popular pipetting aids.

Science fiction is the improbable made possible

Started tackling that Sci-Fi score that Kate made. First three down and it has definitely refreshed my appetite for Science Fiction. Thank you sweetie.

Suddenly the world is not such a bad place.

Photo Dump time. Way Over Due!

Sheboygan Brand Bratwurst Grillers...

...made in California...

...for the New York Style Sausage Company?

Bears and Packers stadium chars cavorting together at the Vancouver, WA Bed, Bath & Beyond

Rolls-Royce at the Elmer's in Clackamas.
Elmer's is like a Denny's or Shoney's type restaurant.

This one is from a Wendy's parking lot in Portland. What is up with the fancy car/crap food connection?

Uh, wouldn't Lil' Beep Beep be a better name for a car seat toy?

Happy clasp dude on a container at Goodwill

Torino? Torin-yes!

Cannibal Marshmallow!

These guys were only 20 feet away. Sorry for the rainy-car window-zoom shot:(

There are more to come. Phone is full and I need to sort them.

I'm gonna drive a big truck, I'm gonna rule this world

What do you suppose this person was thinking?

Billy: How many miles to the gallon?
Car Salesman: (Clears throat) Three.
Billy: Shoot, that's less than a Hummer! I'll take one!

This picture doesn't even scratch the surface of how obscene this truck is.

A little better perspective. Just towers over the car next to it at the stop light.

You will die of suffocation, in the icy cold of space

More awesome estate sale finds. This sale out in the Proebstel, WA area had 10 banquet tables full of VHS tapes and around 300 cassettes. Mostly classical, radio dramas and country music with a smattering of this and that. I pulled 15 cassettes at $.25 a piece. Here are 3 of them. Click on the The Saga of Battlestar Galactica or the The Odyssey Orchestra presents Galactic Hits cassette j-card for links to mp3's if you'd like.
