Chuy's Christmas Parade Overview:

Why wait 'til December for a Christmas Parade when you can attend Chuy's Christmas Parade in Austin during November? This unique Christmas parade raises money for "Operation Blue," which provides toys to needy children in the Austin area.

About Chuy's Christmas Parade:

Held the Saturday following Thanksgiving, Chuy's Christmas Parade features giant inflatable balloons, holiday floats, classic cars, marching bands and Santa. However, in addition to being great entertainment for those in attendance, Chuy's Christmas Parade also serves as a toy drive for needy children. Spectators are encouraged to bring a toy, which will be collected by 'Santa's Helpers' on behalf of Operation Blue during the parade.

Where Chuy's Christmas Parade is Held:

The parade route begins at the State Capitol at 11th and Congress and proceeds south along Congress to Cesar Chave

Kristin Gunn on "Reform School Girl" cd by Nick Curran & the Lowlifes

Reform School Girl (Eclecto Groove)

Out of what could have been a load of retro-posturing, Nick Curran instead created an authentic work of musical prowess befitting his wild ride of a career. His years playing in such Lone Star powerhouse outfits as Ronnie Dawson, Kim Lenz & the Jaguars, and the Fabulous Thunderbirds have given the East Coast-born guitarist that definitive Texas blues-rock edge, but it's his recent inclusion on the soundtrack of HBO's True Blood that gives Curran nouveau street cred in spades. With guests including the Blasters' Phil Alvin ("Flyin' Blind") and the bandleader's penchant for using vintage recording equipment, such songs as "Baby You Crazy," "Tough Lover," and "The Lowlife" spew red-hot licks and leering, sneering attitude to burn. Reform School Girl is also the first killer party record of 2010, homage to the old-school style of sticking a disc in the player and letting it roll all night long.

Super-fast healing, which is high on my priority list since I'm diabetic...

Hey! Just wanted to let you know (albeit late) that I love your products! Super-fast healing, which is high on my priority list since I'm diabetic (having an open wound with little immune system is something I have to be really careful with). I just ordered more salve and lotion since I'm starting a shin/calf sleeve Tuesday and will definitely need it. Attached is a close-up of my sparrows. Thanks for the great products!

Thanks David! We appreicate the feedback and pic. Your tattoo looks rad! xo

What's the deal with Tea Tree oil and Tattoo Healing?

We feel that tea tree oil and citrus balms may slow the healing process of a new tattoo, causing dryness, scabbing, etc. these items are too harsh and drying for the new "baby" skin that is trying to form, therefore we don't recommend them for use during the healing process. We sell thousands of tattoo aftercare products per week and have happy customers.

Petroleum based products generally clog skin pores which would not allow the tattoo to "breathe" and heal naturally. Normal reactioons from petroleum based products or over application of balms, salves or ointments is a collection of tiny pimples around the tattoo.

We put no color or artificial scent in our healing salve. Both of these unnecessary ingredients can have adverse reactions.
