Many thanks to El Niño for giving me license to write about this Rains jacket (available in sky blue, black, yellow, and sand). With precipitation finally coming to the desiccated landscape that is southern California, there is finally reason to break out the waterproof gear and hit the streets. Streets filled with a legion of terrified drivers, who react to rain with the kind of frenzied panic that must have been felt by the citizens of Pompeii upon the eruption of Mount Vesuvius. Or the people in the movie Volcano. But this is the +Things That Are Good Blog and I'm not allowed to talk about the movie Volcano. Apologies to Tommy Lee Jones and Don Cheadle.

You know what goes well with a waterproof jacket? A waterproof bag like this Rains MSN bag (available in blue and black). You'd think I would have come up with a joke to put there, but sometimes you have to zig where others zag. I used to have a waterproof bag, but it was destroyed in a fire, due to irony. Important note: it was just a regular made-of-flames fire, not a pyroclastic flow from an urban volcano, although that would definitely make for a better story, if not a great movie. Well, now it's settled: tonight I have to make a massive batch of popcorn and watch Dante's Peak -RB
