Local, but Funny

So I'm at a health food store with my mom, she's buying something and I'm walking the aisles, making a nuisance of myself when I come across the Neti Pot section. Neti Pots, for the unitiated, are vessels to help you get water into your nose, allowing you to clean your sinuses. Great if you have a cold and green things come out of your nose, or if you are into new age cleansing and want to keep it real.

In any case, they had lots of different packaging from the various retailers, but one caught my eye. For the adult Neti Pot, the picture was a sepia toned image of a well-featured women's face, though fairly unrelated to sticking warm saline up your nose.

Not the packaging for the kid's Neti Pot. Same brand, same product, different audiance, so different marketing. Gotta love this. Click on the image to see the kid smile as he really jams it up there.

I didn't put much effort into Halloween this year, though I did go to the Rutgers Graduate Student Association and danced with a cute Argentinian (who I don't think is that interested in me, oh well). I put on one of my favorite hats from my collection, the ever useful "See You Jimmy" hat. Not a condom, but a hat that can transform anybody into an authentic Scot. You can see images of the hat or a picture of myself with cute but uninterested Argentinian wearing said hat.
