Introducing the PEEPOOPLE – when you absolutely have no where else to go

Camp Toilet
Camp Toilet

Russell, you may recall, had a bit of an issue in trying to use his Wilderness Explorer skills in using a latrine:

“Definitely before.” Wiser words have seldom ever been spoken.

If only Russell had read Web Watch, he would have known about this product for his trip with Carl: It may seem amusing to some people, but the PEEPOOPLE serves an equally very specific and serious purpose.

Proper sanitation and facilities don’t always exist in third-world countries.  Water, whether clean or not, is often scarce and seldom used to facilitate waste management as is done in European-style bathrooms.  Women have even been attacked while on their way to use whatever restroom options are available.

Gilpin Family Whiskey – it’s whiskey, made from pee!

Whiskey Companion
The Whiskey Companion

“Whiskey,” to paraphrase Homer Simpson. “…is there nothing you can’t do?”

Apparently not, if you take James Gilpin as an example.

James Gilpin knows a bit of science behind the making and distilling of whiskey, and he knows that all he needs is some good sugar water to make the stuff.  So, being a type-1 diabetic, Gilpin turned to one resource that he had readily available to him.

Introducing GILPIN FAMILY WHISKEY. It’s WHISKEY MADE FROM PEE.  More specifically, the whiskey is made from the pee from diabetics, whose urine often contains high levels of sugar.

One family’s quest to go one year without Disney


Mousetrapped: a Year and a Bit in Orlando
Mousetrapped: A Year and a Bit in Orlando

Web Watch has to admire people like Lisa Ray.

Lisa has strong convictions and a big stick-to-it attitude that isn’t often seen elsewhere.  She really does mean what she says, and says what she means.  Good for her.

Lisa, the founder of PARENTS FOR ETHICAL MARKETING, was upset at how the Disney corporation handled a refund request for the Baby Einstein line of early-learning DVDs.  Her reaction to those events (already documented elsewhere) led her to comment to her family, “I wish we could boycott Disney. But I don’t think we can. They’re too big.”

This got her 12-year-old daughter thinking, and she suggested that maybe they could go a year without Disney.

Lisa liked this idea so much, she decided that was exactly what she and her family were going to do: go A YEAR WITHOUT DISNEY.

It’s easy to laugh at the Food Network, if you know where to look


The Next Food Network Star
The Next Food Network Star

Web Watch is a fan of Food Network.

We like to cook.  We like to eat.  We like to learn about new places to eat, new cooking techniques, and maybe have some fun along the way.  

We’ve eaten at a number of Food Network-related restaurants: Guy Fieri’s JOHNNY GARLIC’s, Keegan Gerhard’s D BAR DESSERTS, Robert Irving’s EAT, and at any number of Bobby Flay, Emeril Lagasse, and Wolfgang Puck locations across the country.  Sometimes the food at the celebrity restaurants is merely adequate; other times it’s been phenomenal and has lived up to the hype.  But the journeys to eat at each location are always worth the trips.

Web Watch is not alone in our enjoyment of Food Network.  Over the years, Food Network has developed so much cooking- and food-related programming that they were able to program a second cable offering, Cooking Channel.  Obviously, there’s a demand for Food TV.

But with the growth that Food Network has had, there had to be some speedbumps along the way to trip them up.

Have a fantasy sports dispute? Let SPORTS JUDGE have the final word


Negotiate like the Pros
Negotiate like the Pros

If you are active in a fantasy sports league with your friends, then you probably have run into a situation where you’re trying to make a specific deal and something horribly goes wrong.

Maybe its that you pulled some stunt regarding whether a player was on waivers or not.  Maybe you backed out of a deal at the last minute because you had some insider information that wasn’t available to the general public.  Really, it could be anything that really would make Ari Gold blush.

So what do you do after you’ve exhausted all reasonable alternatives and still have a stalemate?

You call in the FANTASY SPORTS LEGAL EXPERTS, SPORTSJUDGE.COM.

Here’s a better question:  when was the last time you drank so much that you did pass out?

Better still:  does anyone have photos of you passed out?

How to potty train a 6-month-old? Just say “pss-wss-wss” and you’ll be diaper-free in no time!


Potty like a Rock Star bag
Potty like a Rock Star bag

Web Watch has heard horror stories from our parent friends about the difficult times they have toilet training their children.  One couple is still doing the diaper thing with their four-year-old, continuing to take the stance of “when they’re ready to use the potty, they will” rather than trying to force a child to do something that they’re not willing to do on their own.

Hey parents – here’s a hint for you: maybe they are ready, but they really like the attention that they get by you continuing to wipe and diaper them every few hours.  We’ll hazard a guess that once you stop pampering your child with luv (puns intended), then maybe they’ll start taking care of their business on their own.

But let’s harken back a few years ago to a New York Times article entitled A FAST TRACK TO TOILET TRAINING.  The article talks about how parents are trying to get their children to use the potty earlier in life – most often around 6 months old, but with one interviewee claiming that her child was using the potty at 10 weeks old.
