The Only Headband Fit for the Under 18 All-Valley Karate Champion

My mojo was feeling a bit weak during a long day of work from home and I knew that I needed something to get it back. So I thought to myself, what's the opposite of weak? Karate is the opposite of weak. The Karate Kid to be more exact. And what would the Under 18 All-Valley Karate Champion wear when he needed a little mojo pick-up? A made-in-America headband that is lightweight and breathable, all while still feeling soft and cool against the skin. Where to find such a mojo making headband? You got it: Junkbrands.com. They have a great selection of non-junky headbands, neck gaiters, t-shirts, and hoodies. Why do they call them selves junk? I have no idea because their products are of the highest quality, or Kōhinshitsu, as Mr. Miyagi would call it.

You can head over to Junk's website to learn more about the company. Welllllll ... not much more because it looks like whoever wrote their about page had a little too much marketing juice before writing it. They use terms like "Omni-channel work environment". I don't know what that means but maybe the sewing people, seamstresses and seamstressers if you will, have to go into the office because that's where the sewing machines are located. While the fancy Microsoft Office specialty folk (read Excel nerds and Powerpoint engineers) can work from wherever there's a Wi-fi signal (i.e. bed). Anywow, they sew their wares in Northwest Arkansas. I don't know much about Arkansas' geography so I imagine it's near the Ozarks. This means that they might actually be a front for an international drug cartel. But probably not.

Bonus material: I found a link to Daniel-san explaining the origin of the headband.

Bear-proof, airtight, submarine approved, dog food container

I'm a bit overdue in writing this one but better late than never, right? Well our family got a dog, dogs need food, and food needs to be stored in container (it's the law!). Ergo our family needs a pet food container. I also found out that bags of dog food are really big and heavy. Like carrying around a dead body big and heavy. Therefore we needed a bigggg, pet food container but not so big that it doesn't fit in our mud room. Ideally the container should also be airtight-ish and bear-proof. After a quick web search I ended-up choosing the Gamma2 Vittles Vault. I'm assuming a vittle is equivalent to a kibble, both of which are things that I don't want to eat. Anyhow to make the container airtight they have to have a spinning latch door, so every time I open it I imagine that I'm in a submarine. Bonus! I bet you can't tell from the pictures below which is which. The bottom line is that the vittles vault ...

Office Chair Mat

Well it only took me a year and half of working at home to buy a chair mat. Yes that's right, I've been rolling around on my wood floors without protection. When I realized that I was smashing some crayon like material into the wood floor, that's when I decided that I needed to take action. So I did a web search (trying not to mention the Kleenex of search engines) for best office glass chair mats. Why glass you ask? I wanted glass because we had a plastic one before and it cracked which ruined the rolling experience. Anyhow I came across a list of 5 or 10 floor mats. They seemed to all have the same specs and price: can withstand 1000 lbs without breaking, flat, glassy, and about $200. Well I figured that if I have to shell out 200 large for a floor mat I might as well get one made in the good ole US and A. Luckily Vitrazza was on the list. They are located in Bolder ...

Pre Post: Mythic Quest for Cookware

I just wanted to let everyone know that I'm starting on a quest for new cookware. I'd like something that doesn't contain PFAS and is made in America. I've checked out the usual sites like Bed, Bath, Bodyworks and Beyond and Williams Sonoma but they don't contain a Made in USA filter to speed my search. I will update the post when I find out more. This site might be useful.
