THE LEFT LANE
Potty-mouth kids

Advertiser Staff and News Services

Is the world really ready for Harry Potty?

Topps, which recently re-introduced the classic gross-out Garbage Pail Kids card series, thinks it is.

The Kids are back after a 15-year hiatus, bringing their occasionally clever, always over-the-top bathroom humor.

The latest crop of collectible characters includes the aforementioned Potty as well as scatological scallywags Fartin' Martin and Potty Scotty. The new line is also big on vomit-themed characters, with Andrew Spew, Up Chuck, Luke Puke, and Heavin' Steven.

Do we dare try the gum?


Jingle Bell walk

Run, walk, jog and be jolly at the Jingle Bell Run, 6 p.m. tomorrow at the corner of South Beretania and Alapa'i streets.

Festivities begin at 5 p.m. with a crazy canine costume contest, team caroling contest and music by Imua and others. The post-run party at 7 p.m. at Sister Roberta Derby Park, promises food booths and more music performers, including Weldon Kekauoha and Tapa Groove, Tani Lynn, and Jordan Segundo.

Registration for the run costs $30 ($23 per person for groups of four or more), or $10 for children ages 12 and younger. The event is sponsored by The Advertiser and is a benefit for Special Olympics Hawai'i.

Download an application at www.specialolympicshawaii.org. Same-day registration will be 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. For details: 943-8808, ext. 33.


Fashions at the mall

Eight UH-Manoa freshmen simply can't wait until senior year to put on a fashion show. As a project for APDM 101 (introduction to apparel design and merchandising) they'll present their designs at 4 p.m. today at Ala Moana's Centerstage.

A DJ from Xtreme Radio, 104.3, will provide runway sounds and Sephora will provide goody bags for attendees.
