Those charming boxes of Kellogg’s cereal featuring Olympian Michael Phelps in all his nautical glory (who am I kidding, I don’t know what they actually look like, I don’t buy cereal) were given to a San Francisco food bank.  I have many questions regarding this, the most pressing pertaining to the recent popularity of food banks among what were once the middle class: are the people getting the discarded, Bong-gate tainted breakfast fare the folks with two hybrids and a recently remodeled home who can no longer pay for shit in their lives or are they the rock heads in the Tenderloin?  Do any of those people appreciate their Michael Phelps Kellogg’s Bong Scandal Cereal as much as I would?   Probably not, but whatevs.  To round out this whole circle of recession/economy/media attention/icon/celebrity fuck mess, people are selling the food bank cereal on eBay.  And from the two sentences of an article I sort of read, it seems they aren’t selling so well.

I should go to work now.  A long day of asking people to donate money they don’t have lies ahead of me.
