This picture is a fraud
If they were as good as this girl makes them seem, every kid in America would devour them. Truth be told, to me they seem like they have a consistency similar to the abdomen of a tarantula.

These people are clueless
You have no idea how badly I could eviscerate this article if I were allowed. Social compliance audits on behalf of W-M have been going on all over the world for at least 5 years.
I wish I could get into it but I can't. These outside observers are so ignorant and clueless regarding this topic that I'm sure they are unaware of how off the mark they really are. This is why advocacy groups annoy me at times.

Election Aftermath
Americans don't and shouldn't care about world opinion when selecting their candidates - we are a sovereign nation. However, nobody should short change or denigrate the opinions of the world. We've lived through eight years where GWB was granted the good will of planet earth, particularly after 9/11, and shortly squandered it. Look, the world *wants* to have confidence in and follow the United States. On the other hand, they don't want to feel marginalized and shut out. We have plenty of admirable and not so admirable qualities, but in the end we are the lone superpower for the time being and we have to be proper stewards. I think all the world is asking of us is to be a decent, fair and just nation. The rhetorical flourishes in Europe regarding Barack Obama have been fascinating. They seem to see it as no less than a rebirth, a recreation, a correction of one of our original sins. I sat and stopped after he tipped 270, and all I wanted to do was listen to what he had to say. Really, for a second I felt like the world stopped... it was time to soak it in a bit and realize that once again in America we've flipped the script. It was a historic and momentous occasion - I only regret that I didn't have the foresight to run out and get a paper, like we did when 9/11 happened.
However, I've been entertained with some (presumably) good-natured ribbing on my MySpace page. I'm not sure if he's being a dick or not, honestly. One of my brother's former co-workers is in Lazlo Hollyfeld, and after the election he drunkenly posted some pictures on my page, which I have to admit entertained me. Not to be outdone though, I bombarded him with the following -
He posted the shittiest little Obama logo - I'd have kept it on my page if it wasn't so small. Afterwords he posted a picture of GWB kissing Cindy McCain at a podium, while John watched. Now, I could go the famous Al Gore/Tipper route on this one - that was the single most uncomfortable embrace by a politician and his wife in American history. He doesn't want to bring a knife to a gun fight - I've got some shocking GWB pictures that are the de facto coup de grace.

Halloween
The 70's detective. Ma'am, I'm afraid we're going to have to do a more, how do you say, "private" interrogation...
The bricklayer. Lady - can you find me a place where I can bury my spade?
Julius Caesar. The Emperor always gets what he wants. That is, until he's murdered.
The southern gentleman. Miss, I do declare, your bosom is making this man hunger...
And a few I'd never consider yet think are hilarious.
The Keystone Cop. I see this and I think of Scott Joplin's The Entertainer and bungled police work.
And what might just be the coup de grace....
Lt. Dangle from Reno 911. I won't go here, but I would love anybody that did.
So basically, I'd be interested in anything will allow me to derive a sexual innuendo.

Condiment Moratorium
If you are curious about what the pinnacle of mustard production is, please check out this link - - Maille of Paris. This boutique was featured in Andrew Zimmern's Bizarre Foods, on the Travel Channel. Here they pull mustard out of a tap like a pint of stout, except the pint glass is substituted with small earthenware. Any wacky flavor you can imagine has been produced here. They've been at it for over 250 years so you'd think they might have exhausted their flavor options. Personally I'd like to know what mustard tasted like 250 years ago, rather than try a lavender or thai spice mustard. Are you are jerk at this store if you buy "original flavor?"

The Dark Side of the Music Business
I wouldn't leave you hanging - here's a song to cheer everybody up. I can't even explain to you in words what this song can do to snap me out of a bad mood. Buddhists have claimed that the Beach Boys' "Good Vibrations" is so perfect that it even has spiritual healing qualities. On a personal level, this song serves the same purpose for me. Music from the past allows me to escape from the chaos of today, if for just a little while. Damn I love this song!
Have a good day everyone -
Your friend Josh

After This
My Fav Posts
- This user has zero favorite blogs selected ;(
Well, after the first day we realized that our packs were too heavy, and decided to get rid of extra stuff. But he liked the prunes, and didn't want to throw them away. So he ate a good number of them.
Needless to say, the hiking next day was slow, with repeated stops requested by him while he ran off into the bushes.... :-D
I happen to love prunes like Drew and Tiny. But look at that color scheme? Death by beige. Beige is the color of a long suburban death that starts with vinyl siding, progresses to inflatable holiday lawn ornaments, and ends with a prescription pain killer addiction. Beige is a fake color. And so even her smile is beige. She knows she is rotting inside, and she fills the void with insoluble fiber.
(e:peter) - you've left the greatest comment anyone has ever left on my journal. My God! Haha. You keep it real, man.
