Crutcheze goes to Hollywood - Childrens' Hospital Show New Season Debut!


Childrens' Hospital is a product of TheWB.com and is a comedy that lampoons the medical show genre. It was created by and stars actor/comedian Rob Corddry, best known for his work as a former correspondent on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. Also starring is Megan Mullally of Will & Grace fame, Henry Winkler of Happy Days and many, many more.

Imagine our surprise when we received a call from the production staff of Childrens' Hospital. They were looking for a Crutcheze retail dealer in their area to purchase Crutcheze product to give some much needed relief to the actors who use crutches and walkers on the show.

Crutcheze product was expedited to them through our value-add dealer network in time for this season's taping. The show will debut the newly produced season on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim channel and will being airing on August 22, 2010. You can also view the original season one webisodes on Adult Swim starting on July 11, 2010.

So, which Crutcheze product will they be using on the show? Guess you'll have to tune in on August 22nd to find out.

Hip Chicks - Hip Dysplasia and Impingement Support Group






A few months ago one of our wonderful customers, Kristin, introduced us to Hip Chicks Unite, a Hip Dysplasia and Impingement Group. We joined the group and have found the members to be very friendly and supportive.

The inspiration behind Hip Chicks is
Krystal Clausen, a vivacious and highly spirited young woman who was recently diagnosed with bilateral dysplasia. Krystal's vision for the site was to create a support group community with a network of fellow Hip Chicks that interact on a personal level. And, from what we can tell, she is well on her way to achieving her vision with 276 chicks and counting.

Hip Chicks is a free member site. However, donations are welcome as Krystal supports this site through her photography work on
Etsy, proceeds from selling Hip Chicks merchandise on Zazzle and Hip Chicks Unite Store.

Stop by and say hi to Krystal, do some shopping, check out the informational links and join one of the many groups, such as Hipster Club, Parents of "HIP" Kids, etc. We did. It's fun!
