The main reason I

The main reason I subscribe to the newspaper is for the Friday Fry's ad insert (well, that and the Sunday coupons, thanks to Double Coupon at Ralphs). You just can't beat the mix of cheap junk, B-movies, and random electronics parts that makes Fry's the beloved institution that it is. But the Powerdent Battery Operated Disposable Toothbrush ($1.88, limit 2 per customer) has gotta be the most random item I've ever seen. It's a testament to the power of globalized mass-production, a comment on the disposable evanescence of post-postmodern era, and a convenient oral care product!
