General Awesomeness
Attention, Christmas shoppers! The Fly Team has a new favorite place to shop. Everyone please give a warm holiday welcome to MY 4TH HABIT, a LIQUOR, LIQUOR, LIQUOR store on South Pauline.
MY 4TH HABIT is located next door to the Fly Team's previous favorite place to shop, 3 Habits: ONE OF THESE MUST BE YOURS, which sells beer, tobacco, and porn.
Oh, please, let there be a 5th, 6th, and 7th habit. Please!
Bear Scat
If you read the Flyer's website obsessively — and really, you should — then you already know about this. But for the handful of insufferable anti-hipsters who only get their news from dead trees, it's news that's worth repeating.
Recently, we reported on a bizarre Spanish Christmas tradition that has resulted in the manufacture and sale of miniature Pau Gasol statuettes that find our favorite bearded Grizzly with his pants down, squatting over a curly brown turd. Apparently, in northern Spain, it's common to include a pooping peasant in manger scenes. As the tradition commercialized, statues of squatting celebrities were also produced, and somewhere along the line somebody decided they could make a buck by sculpting a pooping Pau. God rest ye merry gentlemen, indeed.
