Pop Culture Frenzy, Round 81




Welcome once again to Pop Culture Frenzy. A Dutch fashion designer has come up with a fabric that is bio friendly and earth saving.


What is this fabric made of?
Molly?





Dog hair?




Hostmaster:  incorrect.
Bryan?





Meth?


Hostmaster:  huh?





Well, they use hemp to make fabric.  
Maybe they could make a dress out of crystal meth. 
 Like that blind woman on Star Trek.




Hostmaster:  stay away from that stuff, man.  It'll kill you.
Fluffy?





Algae?




Hostmaster:  incorrect.
Cyndi?





Cow manure.




Hostmaster:  correct.  It isn't clear how exactly this guy does it.  But he separates the liquid from the solid in the cow flop. Then he extracts the acid from the liquid and the cellulose from the solid and whips it into fabric.





Does it smell?




Hostmaster:  it's purported not to.






What do they do with the
 left over liquid and solid?




Hostmaster:  surely concerned thinkers are working night and day to reprocess those cow poop remnants.





They better hurry.  I hear there are only a
 couple years left before we all die.






Greenhouse gases are dangerous. 
 Cow methane is the main reason for global warming.







If they're making clothes out of cow manure,
 doesn't that mean they'll need live cows? 
 If cows are the main reason for global warming
 is it an environmentally sound idea
 to raise cows for the fashion industry?







There's lots of feces on the streets of San Francisco. 
 Maybe they could use that!







The homeless people could model 
the clothes they helped produce!






It's a win-win!





You guys are sick.






This round is over.







Round 81
Fluffy/Molly   39
Bryan/Cyndi   38

My Computer went Kaput



Email addresses.  GONE.  Collection of critter pictures.  GONE.
Important assorted whatnot.  GONE.






We have carbonite to retrieve the files.  Probably.  A few years ago when this happened most of the files were saved.  They arrived out of order though.  My procrastination is such that I never organized them.  Therefore they will likely come back this time further disorganized, possibly to the point of being unrecognizable.






You might say I'm feeling frazzled.   Actually, it's worse than that. I'm stifling a scream.  Maybe I'll just let it rip.  Like Edvard Munch.  You know the one.  Here's my version.







Of course, the program that goes with the scanner that allows you to rotate and crop an image refuses to merge with the new computer.  This is just the sort of thing that threatens to render my art less powerful.






Luckily The Handsome One is on hand to assist in this ordeal/transition. His temperament is less inclined to scream than mine.  At least, I've never heard him scream.  Perhaps THO employs a manly method of venting like sitting in his truck and growling.






Wish us luck!

Happy Labor Day

So, it's Labor Day.








Yep.  The Labor Movement won
better treatment and the work day
was reduced to eight hours.







So to celebrate there's big sales
and workers in stores have  to
work overtime.








It's now OK to wear
white though.
