Little Tikes

So, we got another unsolicited catalog in the mail today. I called to cancel (how many trees to we consume this way?). While I was listening to Kenny G. on hold, I thumbed through the catalog and was really impressed that many of their items are Made in the USA.

If you want to buy cool plastic stuff for your kids, little Tikes is the place for you.

Wake up Maggie


with a Maglite flashlight to light your way.


It's another thing I got for my birthday. Made in Ontario, California...not far from San Pedro.

---I got this one...a 2-cell LED

It's a Fluke


Or a Flea...

Not only is it made in the USA, it's made 60 miles from my house!
The Fluke is a tenor uke. The flea is a soprano (don' mess wit da family)
It's what I'm getting for my birthday this year. Number 12 in my collection of stringed instruments. And I can't play any of them.
