New Blog Template!

May 26th. Got a new blog template that I envision to be the be-all and end-all of blog design, but there will be a gradual phasing in of links and whatnot. I could have done all this offline and popped it in when perfected, but I already accidentally burned that bridge (long story) It will be quite cool when done, but of course that will exceed my attention span several times over, so bear with me.

Those tacky striptease pens from Holland…


Item #GG1220; Supremely Tacky Striptease Lady Pen
When
turned over, her clothes disappear, revealing her naughty bits. Our choice of barrel colors, click and scribble tested before shipping! I had to spray paint the picture a little because some of the pens are stored upside down. (No sneak previews!) Sorry, pen cannot be imprinted (Most of barrel is consumed by the naked lady display, rest is too curved to imprint) Just $1.99 each, cheap flat rate shipping too.

How to make with the fake vomit. Hint: no green

The exact blend is a proprietary secret, but this much is revealed: Production of fake vomit begins with 55-gallon drums of natural latex, which resembles thick milk. Colored bits of foam the size of coarse bread crumbs are added: red, yellow, “natural,” two shades of brown, but no green. “Too strong a color,” Putnam said.

“It’s kind of like Grandma’s recipe,” he observed. “A pinch of this, two shakes of that. You kind of know when it’s right.”

The slurry is then ladled onto one Teflon sheet.

The vomitmaster smooths the mixture with the back of the spoon, the way a short-order cook does with pancakes on the griddle. Depending on weather, season and humidity, the pools of fake vomit, 500 to a batch, take overnight to a day and a half to dry. Like snowflakes, no two fake vomits are ever alike, which in the world of manufactured practical jokes is a rare trait.

From an article about the Chicago manufacturer of our fake vomit.
