In the meantime, help yourself to a book and booze pairing. Bram Stoker's Dracula and a Bloody Mary, for example? It's a book you can really sink your teeth into.
Any other book/booze pairing suggestions?

Books and Booze
The Mistress will try to pull herself together in the days to come to discuss the books of July/August in The 2016 Infomaniac Book Challenge.
In the meantime, help yourself to a book and booze pairing. Bram Stoker's Dracula and a Bloody Mary, for example? It's a book you can really sink your teeth into.

Product Placement
You've all seen product placement in movies and on TV. Here, for example, we see cans of Coca-Cola in the television series Mad Men...

The Mistress was too distracted by the dapper Don Draper to have noticed it, at first.
But did you know that we here at Infomaniac use product placement too? Check out these examples:
Coca-Cola...
Red Dog beer...

Bud Light beer...

Before It's Too Late
Have you been out of touch with friends and relatives because you're too busy or life just got in the way? Contact them NOW before it's too late.
The Mistress lost two old friends recently; both middle-aged people who still had a lot to live and a lot to give. Unfortunately, I hadn't been in touch with either of them for over a year because I was too caught up in work and other activities. And basically, I was just too tired at the end of the day to do all the things I wanted to do.
One of my friends took his own life after a losing battle with depression. So if you have a loved one who suffers from depression, please strongly encourage them to get the help they need by contacting a doctor or mental health counselor.
I'm very busy during the next two weeks with work and house guests. But I'm also making an effort to contact old friends with whom I've lost touch. I encourage you Bitches to do the same. Before it's too late.
Note: A more upbeat post to come as soon as possible.

Flip Flops Fail
In addition to the good news that Crocs are bad for your health, comes The Truly Terrifying Case of Wearing Flip-Flops in the City.
"Flip-flops are for short walks or to wear by the pool; they’re not meant to be worn all day,” says Dr. Joshua Zeichner, MD, the director of cosmetic and clinical research at Mount Sinai Hospital in NYC.
"Exposing the skin to dirt and microbes can lead to infections ranging from athlete’s foot to cellulitis and soft tissue infections."
“The actual flipping of the flop, says podiatrist Dr. Gary Evans, can lead to a severe heel callus, which in turn leads to cracks in the skin, which amounts to a cordial invitation for fungi to make their way into the foot and cause infection.
Physical injury is another major possibility. Flip-flops don’t offer any arch support or cushioning and shock absorption for the feet and legs. Without the support, your foot and toe muscles work extra hard to propel you through the gait cycle. That muscle overuse can yield everything from tendonitis and leg aches and pains to plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendon pain, and even long-term shin splints.
Other reasons not to wear flip-flops include:
Becoming more susceptible to bug bites, cancer-causing sun overexposure, and hammertoes. Google "hammertoes" and you'll see what I mean.
The Mistress will not rest until all Crocs and flip-flops have been swept from view.

Lust for Lederhosen
According to Herbert Lipah, owner of the Royal Bavarian Lederhosen-Madness shop,"Once you try lederhosen on, your life will never be the same again."
[via]
Note: That is NOT Herbert Lipah, pictured above. We suspect it could be Herr Mago.
Lipah adds, "You don't need to clean lederhosen, or at least no more than once every two or three years."
We here at Infomaniac wonder if after several wearings your lederhosen would get a bit "whiffy" but each to his own. I suppose you could always Febreze liberally.
Have any of you Bitches tried on a pair of lederhosen? Did it change your life?
