Informative Information
Here's some links to entertain you. This is what I was reading today that made me laugh.
There's a new search engine on the block trying to take down "The Google". Its called Cuil.com. Its supposed to be pronounced as "Cool". It also apparently sucks (but I haven't tried it). But here's a story about how Cuil.com has supposedly blown through 33 million in venture capital by doing things like paying for lunch and breakfast for every employee, having a personal trainer on staff for all employees, every employee having a gym membership, a doctor making the rounds after the company wide Friday BBQ, and a sports car for every executive.
Carl's Jr. has come out with a new breakfast sandwhich that can only be described as "Nothing I’d rather shut my heart down with more than bacon, egg, cheese, and sausage. I just hope it’s not too big. I would hate to not be able to eat one of these while I cram a second one straight up my asshole."
Finally, here's a documentary if you've got an hour to kill: Its called "The Future of Food". It takes about genetically engineered food and the risks involved in contaminating the food supply, and organic food. Its really, really interesting and I recommend it.

I am superbad, are you?
I bought superbad at midnight.
We were so fired up I drew "dix pix" like the main character did (back in 4th grade) in the movie. Left them on people's car. If they get the joke, they'll love it (or so I hope -- I mean, how can you NOT?) if they don't they'll simply be piss to see an illustration of a phallus on their windshield.
Its the most immature thing I've done in a long, long time, but it was much needed after hacking about on a final paper for the past few hours.
And now I rest.

A few of my favorite things
I thought I'd post a few of my favorite things on my website. Friends are of course welcome to comment.
First off: Favorite Bond that does not involve Sean Connery:
What can I say? The Bad Boy Bond rocks.
This next picture is a "screw up". I was trying to take a self portrait of Melissa (my friend's wife) and me when home for thanksgiving this past year. I ended up photographing a picture of her eye, and my teeth. She constantly tells me I'm a horrible photographer. She probably hates this picture. Me, I love it. Even though its a screw up, you can tell we were happy when this picture was taken. That's all the picture was meant to say. And it makes me smile when I think of the good times with hometown heros, especially when I miss them.
Here's the finished product. Its not half bad, either.
Here's my favorite "Me Expressing My Thoughts About the Greek System @ Pitt" Picture. But I'm not bitter.
Favorite Cat / Chinese Cooking Picture.
My new thing is shoes. I guess the "drool for shoes" aspect of JPOD (by Douglas Coupland) rubbed off on me. I'm really into cool shoes. These are my new running shoes -- Addias Goodyears. They're made from recycled race car tires. They're designed for distance road races. They look like golf cleats. And they were $39.99 on sale.
Here's my other favorite pair of shoes. These are "Diesel" brand shoes. Very, very comfortable. I'd recommend a pair to anyone that can afford them. (They're $80 when not on sale, which is pricey to me.) Girls, don't miss out. If you have big feet, see if you can fit into a men's size 8 and try them on.
Favorite Car Picture I've recently taken: This one. Its a Lotus. It was parked in the last line of parking spaces at my grocery store.
Favorite Comedian: David Cross. His stand up is incredibly raw and political and angry, and I like it that way.
Favorite License Plate: This one.
