Wicked New Accessory

Yes, we know that charity bracelets are for a good cause but Linda recently uncovered plastic bracelets that celebrate the seven deadly sins (plus Nihilism for good measure). Accoutrements (you may remember seeing their action figures of pirates, authors, and even a crazy cat lady) are the brilliant minds behind this one and the "cynics" and "smart alecks" out there are grateful. For the record: Linda is sporting Sloth while I'm proudly advocating absolutely nothing with Nihilism.

That said, donating is still very important (we just prefer to do it directly with cash or by purchasing drinks) so here are links to the Red Cross and two great SF-based fundraising events. Red Cross | 500 Club (tonight!--all proceeds go to Katrina relief) | Reading Benefit at Makeout Room (Monday, the 19th)
