Life of Brian

They are re-releasing Life of Brian in order as an antidote to all of the issues with Mel’s “Passion of the Christ” movie.  It is a very funny movie, but should not be seen by people who take religion too seriously.

Experience with beggars and microwave-able pork rinds

i was walking downtown Chicago and this “lady” was sitting in front of Pottery Barn, gruffly asking people for change. I said “No, sorry” and walked by and I heard her say “You are going to hell.” Excuse me?? I’ve never been berated by a beggar before…and it really caught me off guard.

Found Microwave Pork Rinds at Walgreen’s today. Not a big fan, but it piqued my curiousity. Not too bad…but would not buy again….

Whitney on drugs?

I don’t think that this comes as a surprise to anybody….the last few times I saw her interviewed on TV she was just so “out there”

Cricket Cola

Was in Potbelly yesterday and found Cricket Cola, a cola flavored with green tea, which has great health benefits over black tea. Sounds like an odd combination, but it was quite tasty. According to the people giving out the free samples, it is only available at Potbelly restaurants in Chicago.

Check out the John Kerry ads….this one is my favorite….this one came out today to respond to the lie in Bush’s ad saying Kerry is calling for a $900 billion tax increase.

I’m a big political junkie, so this kind of stuff is really interesting to me….and we still have 8 months to go!

Strange Ramen

I opened up this duck flavored thai bowl of Ramen Noodles at my desk today and there were 2 packets inside…the seasoning packet….and a “retort” pouch. “Hmmmmm…what the heck is this?”
 
Turns out the retort pouch actually had fully cooked duck meat in some gravy…nice bonus!  The brand is “Liitle Cook” if you happen to see it
 
Will be in the Big Apple this weekend..last vacation for a while!
 
By the way..I have now been blogging for over a year now….Wow!
