Faux bacon gear...where are we going with this and why are we in a handbasket? :-P Bacon wallets!!!
Part of me wants to be disgusted, and another part of me wants to think that's mind-bendingly awesome. Quite frankly, I don't know which part to follow.
I guess the truly sad part of it all is that I bought those Band-Aids and then hoped for an injury small enough to be tolerable but large enough to warrant their use. And to get the most mileage out of them, the Band-Aids need to be placed someplace obvious.
It's real hard to get a paper cut/tiny flesh wound on the back of your hand or your forehead, FYI.
Lots of neat quirks, highly imaginative, a total daydreamer, happy, healthy, with a side order of the goofy streak. Finds interesting, new ideas and things to work on/play with/learn about all the time...and I kinda want to travel the world to see it all! The universe knows what it's doing!
It is not so remarkable that our greatest joy should come when we are motivated by concern for others. We find that not only do altruistic actions bring about happiness but they also lessen our experience of suffering...the sufferings which undermine our internal peace -- anxiety, doubt, disappointment.
Since our every action has a universal dimension, a potential impact on others' happiness, ethics are necessary as a means to ensure that we do not harm others. Genuine happiness consists in those spiritual qualities of love, compassion, patience, tolerance and forgiveness and so on. For it is these which provide both for our happiness and others' happiness. --Ethics for a New Millennium, by the 14th Dalai

This will come as no surprise to you, but:
I have those bandaids. They come with a tiny plastic pig.
I have no shame.

Holmesie -- bah, shame -- flaunt your homage to all things bacon...oi!!! :-)
Edgy -- great minds throughout the ages have wrestled with the exact conundrum wrapped in enigma of which you speak. So...42 :-)
