THE WAILING OF ONE WORLD TRADE CENTER
“Have you ever heard from neighbors about the wailing World Trade Center?” emailed Kenny Cummings. “It’s unmistakable and very chilling.” Listen for yourself.

TOTES AWESOME!
Obviously this is the best tote ever, designed specifically so you can lord over everyone else in the Whole Foods checkout line. The other side is blank; buy two and sew them together, and that way you can be certain the TC hotness is on view. Plus, you’d have a two-pocket tote! You could even get the totes in different colors, one for each of your personalities. The tote will be removed on Dec. 31—it’s limited-edition all the way. Do I need to mention that it makes an ideal gift? The price is just $20, so you can afford to give one to both of your friends. Buy it while you still can. (Also: T-shirts!)
