OK I traded my new fancy synthesizer for this hand canon.

I'm having a bit of barters remorse (I don't like guns) so I guess I will just use it in the morning to rake some leaves and then leave it on a bus bench or donate it to the food bank.                                  Sometimes chicken sometimes feathers.

Rollie the egg maker

I wanted to roast this device with satire and skewer yet another useless "made in China" type product that currently fill our landfills. Rollie more than met me halfway. Do you really need your eggs to look like someone's sunburned, flaccid crank waving around somewhere on a nude beach? Some do, most don't.
But then as I started researching how bad this is, Old Mr. Rollie started talking me out of it. I kept finding out facts and thinking "well that actually would be handy for a college kid, oh, it would be great for making a party snack platter. I'm not generally a fan of anything that plugs in or takes gas. Rollie takes 210 v of coal burned electricity to cauterize chicken menses. I'm biased. The device that would have me singing praises would be a bike powered egg maker that spits em out looking like origami.
That said, I have to admit that this Rollie doesn't appear to be the waste of money I originally thought. Rollie can be useful. side note: It was a triumph that they thought to avoid a variable temperature knob. I bet they saved themselves from a lengthy and expensive class action lawsuit by hundreds of people who would have went to the emergency room after trying to shag the egg cooker on low.
Good times!Like what we do?

"Imitation is the highest form of flattery"


She nailed it.


Epic email to get from Cerese Minetti "I creepily wanted to know what it would be like to be you for the day..." I asked if she got any reactions and only reported some mild shouting. Thanks for sharing this. I'm so honored that you thought your corner of California needed our vibe. I love that you tried us both on at the same time. Facebook tagged Olive automatically LOL. Cerese tells me that making random people smile all day is a huge value to her. Shine on you crazy diamond!







Thank you lovely clown!

OK Kids, this one's called "Anubis and the Three Pharaohs!"

Once upon a predynastic period, along the Nile river lived three porcine pharaohs. The first piggy king built his hut of imported straw..Then for some reason (fleas) most everyone was stricken with plague. The middle dynasty king built his house of sticks but was crushed to death when the wooden pillars couldn't support the stone roof. The New Kingdom pig built a pyramid of sandstone but was still stopped before entering the afterlife by Anubis because of a clerical error (during a series of earthquakes someone misspelled his name several times while performing the most hasty embalming process).
 Now the three Pharaohs names shan't be spoken lest the speakers soul be immediately blown by Anubis through the lotus blossom into the deep, dark, dusty vacuum of the abyss. HAHAHA! The end. For a decidedly less awful telling of the classic 3 pigs story please download our 3 little pigs song for under a buck!~http://www.amazon.com/Three-Little-Olive-Rootbeer-Dingo/dp/B00GXKRIJM/ref=sr_1_1?s=dmusic&ie=UTF8&sr=1-1&keywords=three+little+pigs+olive+dingo
