Bamboo milk and wheat proteins
On my way to the bus stop, walking in the rain, met a neighbour with an umbrella and a dog with a yellow raincoat. There’s something very wrong about this picture. Put another way, dogs don’t look in mirrors much, do they?
And for those who have to rationalize aberrant pet fashion, this was not a small dog. The animal could have taken his place in a working team. Except, I guess, for the raincoat. Dogs can also laugh.
Does anyone else raise questions about the magical ingredients that are used to market personal care products? That ad for shampoo, vaunting the inclusion of wheat protein; I went straight to Wiki to see what the virtues might be. Would that rinse/repeat cycle be dangerous for people with a specific allergy? Does your hair care?
Or the addition in a body cream: bamboo milk… Wiki scored 0% for content, but Google brought back a number of references. For the main, people like me wondering what on earth the company was shilling. Bamboo makes wonderful furniture, and antenna spreaders, and serves as an addition in certain food dishes (if harvested early enough in the growing cycle). But, milk? It remains a mystery.
We’re into a new season of TV, and certain programs have changed their schedules. Glee is now on earlier (hoping to harvest the few kids who haven’t been intoxicated by show tunes yet). My pick of great lines from tonight goes to the principal in the school assembly, “All those that had the ravioli at lunchtime in the school cafeteria should make sure that their tetanus shots are up to date“. A line like that, we haven’t had since Animal House, many years ago.
