La Aterciopelada
La Aterciopelada, glamor queen and champagne connoisseur, graces Pigdog Journal with her occasional bon mots, deep insights and oh-so-clever epigrams between recording sessions and jaunts on the Concorde. Her inimitable style has uplifted our humble publication, and her expertise in the Brazilian martial art of capoeira has got Pigdoggers out of many a dangerous social situation over the years. Her hobbies include passionate latin dance, sun screen, and oyster-tasting yacht trips on the New England Coast. A deputized official and passionate defender of law and order, she has taken a solemn OATH that prevents her from ever refusing a boon to any man, woman or child in need of her services. Beaujolais for La Aterciopelada!

A Day in the Life of a Beverotologist
It was starting to look like a very boring Saturday, trapped as I was in the suburban wastelands of the outer Bay Area, so I called my Able Assistant (AA) and proposed that we perform some Spocktail field tests. For some time I've been working on creating the quintessential cinematic beverage and even tho' SMRL does most of its testing during nocturnal hours, this seemed an opportune time to roll up the sleeves of our labcoats and get some science done. While the beverotology creation tested this day (The Neurotoxin) must be deemed a success, this article focuses more the journey of the experimenters, rather then the science of beverotology.
