Bring Back 3D Doritos! Youth Volunteer Book Sale, West Hartford Toastmasters

Here are five things going on in the area today.

Good morning, West Hartford! Today is Tuesday, Aug. 20, 2013; there are 133 days left in the year.

I recently wrote about how the good people who make Doritos need to bring back 3D Doritos.

Welp, I found a petition - signed by over 12,000 people - calling for the same thing.

I’m not entirely sure of the efficacy of such online petitions. I mean, there’s an online petition calling for George Lucas to re-insert the original cantina scene back into Star Wars. I agree wholeheartedly, as Han Solo is such a bad uh lover of mothers, he has to be the one to shoot first.

It’s true on the most elemental of levels.

However, just 7 people have signed that petition. How much momentum can one of these things get?

Still, one could only hope that starting such a thing would bring back something or someone so beloved.

Here are five things going on in the area today.

1. There’s a Youth Volunteer Used Book Sale today.

2. The Hartford Lockup for MDA is also today.

3. There’s a seminar on effective pitching, and they don’t mean baseball.

4. West Hartford Toastmasters is at 5:30 p.m.

5. Cultural Care Kids First Fundraiser at Sweet Frog. Gonna get me some of that.
