Electric Earrings from the '30s
Geeky, light-up couture isn't new at all, as evidenced by this little write-up for "Electric Jewelry" from 1932, powered by a "midget battery."
(P.S. I'm under the weather today, so please pardon any lack of verve or proper grammar. Also, helpful or not to an ailing body, eating a whole clove of raw garlic is bracing.)

Clearly, the lady is no Bostonian.
hope you get better soon Joel, instead of eating that clove of garlic .. get a juicer and make some veggie juice and chuck that clove right in there .. i do that every day :)
(hey, why don't you research some juicers and present us with your findings? I hear there are some interesting differences between centrifugal and masticating juicers :) )
Heh, it's funny you would mention that. I recently bought a centrifugal juicer—I wanted a Champion but it was almost 5x the price—and one of the first things I tried was a garlic and cucumber tincture. It was a...unique experience. It felt like my stomach was trying to throw up into my belly.
