PEPPERONI ROLLS

You can nuke these in the microwave,” he said of his rolls, which are broader and heftier than the style found in Clarksburg. “They can take it. My rolls can take anything. I’ll split them open and pile anything on. I’ll put ice cream in the son-of-a-gun if somebody wants one that way.”

Carrie Brownstein on Pearl Jam + Target

Sure, there are seemingly more bands than ever, and websites and blogs have increased accessibility for fans and artists alike. Additionally, and perhaps most importantly, there is no dearth of musical variety and sonic greatness. But, as I've said before on this blog, most of us as consumers have become dabblers, tourists even.

One recent study estimated that 30 percent of the increase in health care spending over the past 20 years could be attributed to the soaring rate of obesity, a condition that now accounts for nearly a tenth of all spending on health care.
