Welcome to a fucking WORLD of WONDER
1999-05-04 23:24:53
After months of agony and anticipiation, we've FINALLY come to the point where we have something we WANT TO SHARE with you, our beloved public. What is it? The NEW and EVER-IMPROVING PIGDOG JOURNAL. WEE-HAW! SPOCK GOT GAME! You can even eat the DISHES.
Longtime readers will note that we've changed our look and our format. The look thing was, well, kind of inevitable. Tjames says that our old color format was reminiscent of Hotdog Stand. I tend to agree.
But we've also changed the way things are organized and STREAMLINED like a MOTHERFUCKER the way you get from point A to point B. And behind the schenes, we've made it easier for the INTERNATIONAL PIGDOG CONSPIRACY to donate BRAIN CAPITAL to the cause. All of this leads to a finer dining experience as you crack your teeth on the great taste of Pigdog Journal.
So come with me, and you'll see into a world of PURE IMAGINATION. Look around and try the NEW CRAP. And let us know what you think.

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.
