Don’t forget this one.

Pfft - they’ve had flying bikes since 1980

On of the best things that has happened in my work life was having a co-worker who was a competitive baker. New recipes came to the break room for opinions. Not quite perfect looking products were always welcomed. I thought things couldn’t get any better until another co-workers spouse got into competitive BBQ.

Thats a hell of a list! Im convinced. 

Why did the man put kidney beans in his baby maker?

One semester my daily diet was macaroni with cheese, a pot pie, or a can of soup (all generic and about 25 cents at the time) and all the potatoes and white rice I wanted. I always had money for Old Milwaukee tall boys, though.

The roomies and I pooled our money and got 2 kegs for a blowout party. We had about $2.50 left over so the party snack was gonna have to be popcorn. After spending all day popping a hefty bag full, we learned that college students much prefer beer to popcorn, and since we lost control of the gate, the whole deal…

I was about to say i know of a pizza place that puts DATES on pizza, but alas, its Figs, not dates. The Secret Stash in Crested Butte CO. The Notorious FIG. Figs, Blue Cheese, some other stuff, yeah it works, and its delicious.

My first year of university I lived in an apartment (I opted out of dorms) and my grandmother gifted me around 100 boxes of hamburger helper so I could make quick and easy meals. I didn’t know how to cook very well back then so I never even attempted to jazz them up with spices, herbs or even a vegetable. I’m amazed I…

I only really did a year of college when I was younger in Chile, but the food that instantly brings me back to campus life is something called an “ave pimenton” sandwich from the cafeteria. It’s just a paste of chicken, mayo and roasted red pepper schmeared onto basic-assed white bread, but it is so damn tasty. To…

My old university found out the hard way* that pumpkin seeds don’t compost very quickly.

Oh wow! That’s gorgeous! Totally looks like California. I’ve been fascinated with that type of landscape since I was a kid. Snow?? That’s crazy! I’m just a couple hours from Quebec... really trying to get away from snow and cold.

Hahahahaha... omg I’m so embarrassed! I totally was thinking St. Bart’s for some reason (in my defense I was not quite sober). Probably much of the same crowd though!

How is it living in the Caribbean? I’ve lived in a few seasonal/touristy areas, and it’s always kind of weird being the “locals”. I lived in a ski town for a few years that was nothing but service jobs done by working class people and then the rich people that owned the actual properties. The no winter thing of the…

I didn’t start running until I was 51. I could barely run for 15 minutes when I started. Seven years later, I’m doing 23-25 miles a week spread over four runs. (If I run more than four times a week, my knees bother me. So I do other stuff on the non-running days.)

i live 15 minutes from st tropez. (ok, 15 minutes in winter time, 60+ minutes tourist season) i would not go down there unless i absolutely had to, it sucks. it’s a nice village and all, but it is mostly to see and be seen. to see the rich and famous or to be looked down up upon by them. the things people will do and…

meanwhile back here in Boring Reality, my kid was just told she has to start wearing a mask again for school in the fall because this place is full of fucking idiots who refuse to wear masks or get the jab because “you’re not the boss of them.” wake me up when their yachts collide with each other and burst into flames…

I feel like this is worth reiterating:

For a couple of games a year the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers change their name to the Udder Tuggers. The logo is amazing so I bought a couple of t-shirts.

It was just this week that I learned that Huntsville Alabama has minor league baseball team called the Rocket City Trash Pandas. I could not contain myself to what an AWESOME name that is and their mascot? *chef’s kiss*
