good news
SOME GOOD NEWS On Saturday Kok and I were reviewing materials in our warehouse for a large order we had received for the military.

Cold Weather Parkas
The situation that is unfolding at this time with respect to outerwear imports, specifically parkas for cold weather wear, has led me to bring back the Barren Grounds Parka made with both whatever we have left of Ducksback material and our inventory of Supplex.

The small things...

Preexisting corporations were merging and becoming larger, more powerful conglomerates. Consumers increasingly were doing their shopping at discount chain stores and dining at inexpensive fast-food restaurants, leading to a decrease in the number of [...]
Dead Inventory - Limited Inventory at Great Prices
FOR THE LUCKY FEW Estella, the woman in charge of our inventory, has found an area of different products we call dead inventory. All products are first quality. After you have reviewed the list, if you want one or more items, please send me an email with your name, address, and phone number and I will call [...]
FICTION
AN ARTICLE FILLED WITH FICTIOUS AND ERRONEOUS INFORMATION A pair of Cadense Energy BOOST Performance Socks in Natural Black. The socks feature CELLIANT® technology developed by Hologenix that converts body heat into infrared energy, providing gentle compression that improves local circulation and quickens muscle recovery. Celliant is a product I have written about in the past, but like [...]
The Best Solo Camping Bags Available

Not only do you get a sleeping bag…. you also get a blanket, a poncho, a short coat, and a long coat in one item.I’ve used these bags while camping in the original ECOTATs, Wiggy’s Freedom [...]
