I'm Engaged!

Posted by Justin Mendez on Friday, October 30, 2009,
I woke her up at 7am and we walked to the sun deck.
We began to watch the sunrise together and I told her I forgot something downstairs.
I returned with a (vegan) chai latte cupcake with chocolate chips and vanilla frosting
on top of which sat a ring made by the talented Greg Cullum (InfiniteBody.ca)
I told her I wanted to spend the rest of my life with her, got down on one knee and
asked if she would marry me.

She said yes.

Peppermint makes me sneeze

Posted by Justin Mendez on Wednesday, October 28, 2009, In : videos 
I'm eating dark chocolate mint UFO's from Trader Joe's and they're making me sneeze like crazy. My grandma has the
same problem. I remember being a kid and watching her sneeze as she ate peppermint patties. Sneezing or not, these
things are tasty.

Yesterday I rode my bike to the Anaheim shop to watch Chris Glunt pierce. I took the river trail since there was no wind at
all, it was a really nice ride. I was convinced it would be a shorter trip than usual but according to my computer it turned

Posted by Justin Mendez on Saturday, October 24, 2009,
It's been a struggle to find something to drink in the mornings to wake me up without making me feel horrible but so far green tea seems to be doing the trick. I gave black tea a shot the other day but it was way too much. Maybe I made it wrong. I don't know. Either way, it made me super shaky.

Yesterday I trained some new shop help for several hours and today I'm doing the same.

Just trying to make it through my last day of work this week. After today I will have worked 8 days a week with no ...

Milk - An article review

Posted by Justin Mendez on Thursday, October 22, 2009, In : vegan 
A review and my thoughts on an article posted earlier this week in the Los Angeles Times

It was 4:55pm and I was five minutes early to work. I had just ridden my bike from Seal Beach. My hair was messed up, my "VEGAN POWER" shirt was soaked in sweat and I had forgotten to bring John the stamp I had promised.

He hands me a folded page torn out of the LA Times. "This is for you."

The title: "Poring over facts about milk."

The Author, Elena Conis, compares milk from Cows, Goats, Soy, Almonds...

FBI visits Outer Limits, Long Beach

Posted by Justin Mendez on Wednesday, October 21, 2009, In : tattoo 
**I'm still working out some of the kinks in the blog so bare with me!**

I was afraid today would be a painfully uneventful but,
an FBI agent decided to stop into the shop and drop this
paper in my lap.

It's a full page memo detailing how to identify potential terrorists
and when it's appropriate to report suspects to the authorities.
Click the image below to see it full size.



In an unrelated matter, I have started a donation jar for Farm Sanctuary's Adopt-a-Turkey Program.
You can stop by the shop a...
