Mr. Slim


(Sung to whatever tune you want)

Mr. Slim he keeps us warm
His efficiency? Above the norm
And when the summer heat arrives
Of coolness he does not deprive

Mr. Slim! Mr. Slim! Mr. Slim! Mr. Slim! (x2)

His controls are most remote controlled
From yonder wall his orders told
And spring to life to warm or cool
A most honorable climate controlling tool

Mr. Slim! Mr. Slim! Mr. Slim! Mr. Slim! (x2)

further verses may be suggested in the comments section - good ones will be added to "The Ballad of Mr. Slim"

Editor's note - Music Coming Soon!!

Yes they fit nicely, but how do they taste?


From a local shoe shop - This is the same Pepsi that makes soft drinks...and unbeknown to what I suspect is the overwhelming majority of readers (All four of you...thank you google analytics) - they also make shoes. Price? 1,500 yen (about $16) and small piece of your dignity.

No word yet on whether they use real sugar or corn syrup.

My guess is the secret ingredient is sweatshop labor.

Tautological Redundancy



Are there other types of gases I am unaware of?

Yay Japanese Marketing!

Ok, so maybe the real reason I moved back was for packaging like this...



I couldn't come up with such a wonderful turn of phrase in a million years.
