We've got a lot of good things going on around the office lately that has been keeping all of us super busy. You may or may not have noticed by now but as of last week, we have updated and redesigned our MySpace page. Although the MySpace page is still a work in progress, I think the new layout is pretty sweet (if I can say so myself). The section called "Get Your Story on the Label" will be expanded and you can submit your personal travel story for a chance to be on the label of one of our products. In addition, we will be giving away a monthly product prize for the travel story we like the most. Go ahead, send us something.... and by adding us to your friends, you will be eligible to receive special discounts and offers not available anywhere else.
In addition, we are working to completely update and revamp our website. We will be adding the new hair products and making the site much more user friendly and interactive. I can't wait.
On the table right now, we have listened to what you have said and we are re-packaging a few of our products into better packaging and March 1st, we will be releasing our new Great Lakes Shave Cream. That's right,, the much anticipated Shave Cream will finally be available. Our shave cream is an oil free formula that's good for all skin types. Its designed to soften the hair and provide a close, clean shave without irritation. It has an invigorating rosemary mint aroma athat rinses clean and forms a comfort barrier between the razor and the skin, reducing skin drag.
We were also a sponsor at this past weekends Winter Xgames - if you were there and saw us on the Jumbotron, let us know!
We are all very excited about all of the changes and I will certainly keep you posted!

New Years Eve, the final day of the Gregorian year, and the world's way of creating another holiday transitioning into New Year's Day holiday, seems like its usually a celebration involving copious amounts of champagne and alcohol, the need for a designated driver and a lot of hype surrounding thirty seconds around midnight.
This year, I am doing something different and it seems like the more people I talk to, the more I hear that other plans are straying for the norm as well. I'm interested.... what are you doing for New Year's and why?

It has been nearly thirty years since mopeds appeared on the scene then quickly faded away until their revival in the early 2000's. For those of you not in the know, moped subculture is either coming to a city near you or it has already taken over. The Moped Army, a moped community with 18 branches throughout the United States with over 350 branch members and 13,500 registered users is out there representing two wheeled fun at a brisk pace of around 30 miles per hour.
Mopeds may be the connecting point but when it all boils down to it, its all about the fun, the friends and the parties.
The Tom Cruisers, the Tempe, Arizona branch of the Moped Army will be hosting it's first moped rally in the middle of the desert this New Years Eve....
Here's their event itinerary.
And here's another little gem:
If any of you had the opportunity to go see the Wooster on Spring this weekend I would love to hear your thoughts since I didn't get to go and will never again have the opportunity [and that kind of bums me out].

Oh, how I can't get this gem from the Miami Beach Art Basel show out of my head.
Oh, how I wish i had seen it in real life.
Oh, how I wish i had it so I could see it everyday in real life!
In the right scenario, they could be on to something...
A company called Remote Control Mail now offers a service that will take your snail mail, scan it into a PDF and email it to you for you to read. In most cases, I would say this is a bit overkill... is it that difficult to open mail, its not saving any trees... but reflecting back to my recent extended stay away from home, I realize how valuable this could be for those who are traveling, on tour, or, heck, just don't want to check their mailbox. It clearly won't work for care packages or bulk items but you would never have to fill out a change of address form again.
Almost anything would be cooler if it was laser etched right? Adafruit Laser Services is an appointment only laser etching service based out of New York that offers you the opportunity to grab your laptop, iPod, cell phone or any other gadget and take them in with your artwork to be custom laser etched. And believe it or not, they even let you press the GO BUTTON to fire the laser beam!
Pricing starts at $100 USD for laptops/powerbooks and $30 USD for smaller devices like iPods and cell phones. What a deal!
Here’s an amazing examples of their work off of their flickr site:

This isn't another long winded "put the toilet seat down" rant.
You know that little black flap within the toilet is one of those ingenious inventions that doesn't quite get the brilliance award that it deserves. Its one of those things we don't even think about until its not working.
So recently, mine stopped working and in true girl fashion, i polished my nails and then located the closest guy I could find and asked "can you fix it?". Than I asked about ten other guys I knew. To my dismay, the overall answer was no! So I got on the handy dandy internet and figured out how to do it myself - which, for the record, is really the way I get most things done around the house.
If one of my guy friends would have known this, he would have been my hero and it's actually such a simple thing... you go to the hardware store, get the parts and within a few minutes wallah!
It was this blog that inspired me and clued me in that yes, I could really pull it off myself:
Unless it's cracked or ugly: don't replace that old toilet, fix it! - Kudos to this guy and his "potty mouth"
and don't forget to wash your hands when you're done!
