From the WTF Files: Vulva Original
Ummm, wtf? I'm seriously frightened by this one. Vulva Original is not cologne or perfume, it is concentrated, simulated "vaginal scent" that you are supposed to apply to the back of your hand so you can intensify "your erotic fantasies and start the film rolling in your head." The FAQs section of the site is pretty choice... unfortunately it doesn't include the question that has been on my mind, "Does naming it 'original' mean that there are other exciting Vulva scents coming out such as Vulva: Menstruation and Vulva: Yeast Infection?" It turns out the development page answers that question... while the smell of menstruation and yeast is so not hot right now, apparently Vulva will soon come out with Vulva: Eighteen and Vulva: Exotic. You know, because barely legal and "exoticized other" vaginas totally smell different than original vaginas. I can only shudder to think what those scent masters will think to infuse into those concoctions (I can just picture the board meeting with a bunch of middle-aged white pervs demanding essence of lollipop and Chinese five-spice).

this man...
tried to befriend me on myspace. I think I'm going to say no. I figure my friends should at the very least be in the same astral plane as me... at best they are people I have actually interacted with in some way before the person clicks a button to add me as a friend.

monday means exercise
the weekend is over and I stuffed myself with fried chicken and schnitzel so it's time to exercise - every Monday and Wednesday afternoon I take an aerobics and strength training class offered through the Urbana Park District - the class looks a lot like this video

My Latest Procrastinatory Obsession: pandora.com
Back in 2000 a group of music-tech geeks got together to create "The Music Genome Project" - a project that aimed to analyze music by hundreds of attributes (or "genes") combined into thousands of "focus traits" so that a site like pandora.com can identify music you might like depending upon the initial band(s) you input into the site. It then streams songs to you over the internets they think you might like. The claim is matching music by these "genes" will identify music that can resonate with you that goes beyond simple identifications by genre or self-identified "influences" a band might list. Funded by evil corporations and advertising? Yes, I'm sure (including Sprint, my horrible cell phone provider)... but the advertisements are relatively innocuous and I have actually discovered some really great music on the site. Now whether I'll actually buy the music... will remain to be seen.
