    Yup, it's true, Cleo. Not long after the quake, Triumph learned that undergarments were one of the most-requested items by evacuees. 20,000 bras and panties were on their way to Ishinomaki a few days later. I know because I was directly involved in helping that donation to happen. And if they say they've donated 62,000 items, that means they've gone on to continue helping rather than just doing a one-off. Excellent.

    Love 'em or hate 'em, Triumph has been doing wacky concept pieces for years. Heck yeah, it's about getting publicity and building their business. And it's a good thing Triumph is a successful company, and has been able to step up, mostly outside the spotlight. How much have all the armchair critics done, I wonder? Must be a bummer to always see the world through lemon-colored glasses...

    JeffLee, who pissed in your cornflakes? I've done beach clean ups here, and almost everything is debris washed onto the beach from who knows where, not local litter. It can be an eye-opener regarding the permanence of plastic waste, and a good springboard for understanding the impact of consumption.

    Good on the organizers for actually getting out and doing something within their circle of influence! Better than sitting around meaning about imperfect solutions.

    Holy cow, I used to go to the same gym as this guy! Didn't know he was "famous". Pretty short, but thick for a J guy. ALWAYS wore the shades. Moved really stiffly, maybe from an injury? Certainly didn't appear to have any capacity for speed or flexibility.

    I hope I don't find my best days behind me at 45...
