Giving Up Bacon
That's right! You heard it here first, i am giving up bacon for lent. Now bacon may seem like something easy to give up cuz how often oculd someone really eat bacon? But i find prolly on average i eat it at least once a day since some days it is in every mael i eat. I really don' tknow if i will be able to do it. What is a chicken finger sub without bacon? What is a hamburger without bacon? What is a candy bar without bacon? We'll see how it goes, i guess lent is only 40 days anywya. IN the past whateveri gave up for lent i kinda got over and was not so obseesed iwth afterwards, my arteries are hoping the same ting happens with bacon
'

now ireally feel the need to go out and party tonight for mardi gras, and mourn the passing of my bacon days!

How are you doing? I failed COMPLETELY and I am actually glad about it. :D
libertad - 02/25/09 16:22

That's Soul Sausage. It's actually pretty good.
joshua - 02/25/09 14:09
What is soul sausage?
businesscheese - 02/25/09 13:51
I had heard that about you, Lilho.
Now it's confirmed.
lilho - 02/25/09 13:42
i could give up bacon for a while...as long as i can still have sausage. wait, that sounds weird. i really do love sausage though... chorizo, italian, polish, soul sausage...mmmmm!
businesscheese - 02/25/09 13:05
I find this disturbing. I don't know why anyone would ever voluntarily deprive themselves of bacon.
Mayo - sure, fried stuff - see ya later, chocolate - eh alright. BUT BACON?!!!!!!!!
hodown - 02/25/09 09:34
3 things:

1. Chicken finger sub with bacon?! Genius.
2. Someone at my work made bacon infused vodka. Not as good as you'd think.
3. I thought you were giving up bacon for good and I was worried. Glad it's only for lent!
mk - 02/24/09 22:27
Haha I've actually never heard of bacon on a chicken finger sub...but I'm sure it would be delicious. Actually I'm so impressed with your choice that I think I will give up my bacon equivalent...no Raisinets for 40 days!!!! I decided it tonight when an entire bag spilled in my purse. It was a sign from the heavens that Raisinets should be out of my life. I don't know if I can make it...

If there's a bourbon chicken, a vodka bacon using the other white meat is probably not far fetched. I gave up bacon/pork for life and managed to survive; just barely, though, as won ton soup was like my most favorite food ever and I had to give that up.
janelle - 02/24/09 20:31
Please invite me over to your home after you've made that lovely concoction of bacon and vodka. Puhlease... *salivate*
james - 02/24/09 19:36
You should celebrate with bacon infused vodka (which I am totally going to make).

janelle - 02/24/09 19:21
Mhhh... bacon. I totally should indulge in bacon before lent starts. And then underindulge in all food items after lent starts.

Anti-terrorism Pomegranetes
So the commercial for what is coming up next on the news is "HOW POMEGRANATES ARE BEING USED TO FIGHT TERRORISM!"-- i have to see how the heck that is!!! i'll update when i fin dout
mike - 08/18/10 17:55
i just realized i never update this. They are used to fight terrorism because they are growing them in Afghanistan and they make a lot of money for farmers so they don't grow drugs so they don't funnel the drug money to the Taliban. I'm not really sure why they don't end up funneling the pomegranite money but next time I buy POM (which i have actually never bought ) i will think, "this just tastes just a little bit terroristy"
tinypliny - 03/16/09 22:36
Goddamit. You never updated this. :/.
tinypliny - 02/21/09 19:05
You chew the fruit and load the seeds into a catapult?

My LIfe on VHS
So i am in the process of converting our VHS tapes to DVD but the only way to do it is to actually plya ll the VHS tapes, which is fun to see all these old videos. All i know is I just yelled out at my 8th brithday "yeah of course I have troll pants!" , the Debbie Gibson moment (you all know what i'm tlaking about) must be coming sooN!
hodown - 02/19/09 17:18

Wormy Plum ew ew ew
So i have kept wanting to post but then not feeling like it by the time i got to the computer but this juts has to be posted. I WENT TO EAT A DELICIOUS PLUM yesterday and it was weird because I swear soon as i picked it up i just had a feeling of dread about it but i started to eat it anyway.......and as i am pleasantly chomping my way through i look down and there is like a hole near the pit and curled all up in there is a little white worm like creature! EWWWWW! I don't think i ate any of it because it was just little and in there, but maybe there were more and i ate them. End of that story is i am not just eating into fruit anymore i am thoroughly cutting and inspecting it alL!!!
paul - 02/19/09 17:14
Once I ate one of those oversized grapes and it had a grub like giant white plump bug inside. I bit the grape and the bug in half. When I realized, it was too late as I had already swallowed. Now I more carefully inspect grapes.
tinypliny - 02/18/09 23:33
Haha... ever heard this story -> :::link:::

It tells the story of a mythical king of India who was killed by a worm - that was actually the king of snakes in disguise. :)
mk - 02/18/09 19:52
EWWWWWWWW
james - 02/17/09 23:27
compared to other worms, I bet those are pretty delicious.
