Klean Kanteen

Yesterday I got a coupon in the mail for REI reminding me I had dividend to spend. Today I took that coupon and dividend spending spirit to REI, and bought the 40 oz. Klean Kanteen with Loop-Top Cap. I’ve been dreaming of getting a Klean Kanteen since I found out my Nalgene was killing me. I am very excited about my new water bottle. It taste cleaner. It probably doesn’t really, but I thought and stressed out about it so much. I mean Nalgene is probably not killing me. (They are killing baby bunnies.) But I’ve thought about this damn water bottle situation for many hours. I like Klean Kanteen because it doesn’t have a coating inside like Sigg and the cap is even metal. No more leaching for me. Or less leaching I guess. Also, another plus for Klean Kanteen over Sigg is that Sigg says no hot liquid. I guess that’s a plus. I don’t think I would put a hot beverage in a steel bottle thought. It’s 8 oz. more than my bunny killing Nalgene though.On a side note, as I was writing this post, this came up on my feeds: #76 Bottles of Water. (Also, if you haven’t heard of Stuff White People Like, there was a good interview with the blogger on Talk on the Nation.)

I thought it was good that REI encourages you to accessorize you new Kleen Kanteen. That certainly is something that White People like to do. (Accessorize their accessories, I mean.)

Do you have a rabbit there? I got two here in Taiwan, no kleen kanteens here, never heard of that until now, but cool. I was never into rabbits but one day an lady stopped me on the street and gave me two baby rabbits in a carboard box and said HERE. Ever since then I have been raising a huge coterie of rabbits that I buy in the local night market and then keep at home. I am teaching my two current rabbits to speak Chinese and Taiwanese. HEre:

Btw, what and why your interest in things polar? I mean polar regions? I think you will love my current work on polar cities, and if interested, maybe you can be one of the volunteers to man our first model polar city in 2015 in Norway. Let me know.
