The Boobs have Returned

Made Where ?  In China........of course it is.  It's made in China, Korea, Japan, Vietnam, India, Brazil, and a shitload of other countries around the world.  Now what are we talking about ?

      Why are these dumb fucking lawmakers in Congress so out to get Ralph Lauren ?  Who really gives a shit where anything is made today ?  All that really counts is the final product and if the company producing it is making money.  And why are all the lawmakers bitching about this Democrats ?     Why, Why, Why ?

        The Olympics are the Olympics and there are representatives from most countries. Why single out where any of this shit is made ?  I know about the apparel business as I was in it my entire career.  In fact, I was in the Men's Neckwear business to be precise.  When I started my own company in the late 70's, almost all of the men's production of everything was Made in the USA.....I was in business for less than 2 years when I decided to stop making my production in America and moved everything to Italy.  Why.....?????  because of the stupid fucking unions that made it impossible to do anything.  There were so many problems with the union, that I just got on a plane one day and said that is it...Fuck you America and your unions as well.  For the next 20 years I made everything in Italy, had a distribution center only in NY, paid everyone way over union scale, and enjoyed the fruits of a wonderful business.

         Then Italy became too expensive and my competition began making merchandise in Korea, China, and other Far Eastern countries where labor was cheaper.....Lets face it.....That is the American Way.

         So now that I have gotten off the subject lets jump right back in...Mr. Lawmakers, Mr Newspapers, and Mr. and Mrs. Know it all's that are picking on Ralph Lauren......Shut the Fuck Up.....Look at the suit your wearing, or the dress, or the jeans, or the cell phone you are talking from, or the TV you watch at night, or your entertainment center, your computer, your watch, your eyeglasses, your appliances in your home, your quality automobiles, your medications......OK....I guess you get the point.....America is a wonderful country, but lets get the facts correct and know that manufacturing is under 10% Made in America for most of the above categories.

        
So if any of you genius's that are upset about this uniform nonsense being made somewhere else....................................well that is your problem.......OK...I am calm now.....Maybe we need to figure out as a country WHY manufacturing has left us ?   I guess Quality and Price are good enough reasons......

Prunes..........Why are they not called Prunes???????????? ( a favorite from Nov 2010 )

WTF is wrong with this world ?  Why can't a little thing like prunes be called prunes anymore ?  I grew up watching my parents eating prunes for breakfast with milk in it.  I worked as a waiter in the Borscht Belt for many years and serving prunes in the morning was a tradition.  There were stewed prunes, a compote, as a desert, there was dried prunes, there was prune jam, there was prune juice.  Prunes were in all sorts of recipes used in stuffing's, used frequently in Tzimmes, a traditional Jewish dish in which the principal ingredient is diced carrots. etc.  Now they have disappeared.................or have they ????????

       

I have just done extensive research on Prunes and almost feel like I am now a prune expert, with the exception of the fact that I am not dried up with lots of wrinkles.  According to Wikipedia, A prune is any of various plum species, mostly Prunus domestica or European Plum.  It is called other names in India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh.  They are usually sold as dried fruit.
     There are many health benefits of Prunes. Prunes contain lots of fibers and sorbitol a stool loosening sugar. Prunes help in cases of anemia.  Prunes are excellent for increasing one's vitality. Prunes help in normal blood circulation. Prunes are a good remedy for a sore throat. Prunes can even help prevent cancer because of its high beta carotene content.  These are true facts that can easily be checked..

        So I know your waiting for the pathetic part of this story, or why all of the above is Ridiculous.  Well, your correct.  The suits in charge of marketing this industry have decided that due to popular perception of prunes being used for constipation in older people and being the subject of related distasteful joking, many of today's distributors have stopped using the word on the package label.  Their preference is to state "Dried Plums"
     So, as a one person committee willing to fight the entire prune community and who refuses to call a prune a plum...................I say to you marketing jerks......................May you never eat a prune or plum again and enjoy your constipation when it does occur.  That is Karma.
     And for my own satisfaction now that my several year hunt searching for prunes is over, I am so very relieved ?????????? I can now hold my head high and look at a plum label and know the truth about it............But..........Why is Prune Juice still called Prune Juice ????? and not Plum Juice ????

     How will I ever sleep tonight with such a burden on my mind????
