Please let me know if you want to go to dinner ASAP. I need to make reservations. I know it's last minute but I want spicy pork.

For my Neuroscience friends


Question: What happens when our brains get "full"?

So if I imagine our brains as computer hard drive and memories like data, what (would) happen if/when someone ever gets to the point to where they use up that last bit of memory? Do we know if such a thing is even possible? Would our brains just stop learning? We would we then lose our short term memory? Head 'splode? Secrets of the universe revealed?

Just wondering.

Behold! Frankenjackwhich!


Inspired by this magnificent bastard, http://topcultured.com/will-they-build-it-kfc-krispy-kreme-luther-double-down/, I went to Jack-In-The-Box to construct my own monster of a sandwich.

Here's what we are looking at:
Ultimate Breakfast Sandwich
Bacon Ultimate Cheeseburger
Homestyle Ranch Chicken Club
Stuffed Jalapenos

The breakdown:
2 Stuffed Jalapenos
Ham
2 Eggs
Cheese, lot's of cheese
Bacon, 6 pieces
2 Beef Patties
Lettuce
Tomato
Fried Chicken Breast
Sourdough Bread

You will notice there is no Fish. Fish is the devil and can go to hell and die.

Prior to contruction.

The Frakenjackwich!


Bisected!


and now diner...


To be fair, at the end of this ordeal I felt, feel as of writing this, sick.

Crazy people make life interesting


Circa: RIGHT NOW!

I just returned to the office from getting coffee. As I was walking across the street an obviously homeless female passed me. As she passed me she punched me. Not hard but she did punch me in the arm. I scowled at her and continued on my way.
I work in an office building on the ground floor, inside past a gate and an entry way. Our front office door has a 6" piece of glass that runs vertical the length of the door. Well, a few minutes ago I looked up and said female was looking in at me!
I walked opened the door and she was holding up a finger and asked "What is my finger for?". I closed the door and called the police to have her removed. My coworker Amy has spoken to her to ask her to leave and the female only sat on the floor in front of the door. This was about 2 minutes ago.
As i write this she is standing again and looking through the door to me. We are waiting for the police to remove her.

To be clear, besides punching me, she has not bothered anyone beyond standing in front of our door and talking crazy.

What a day.

Saturday event update


Birthday details update, as much as I have anyway. http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=637511773&ref=nf

Mah Birffday!


1/14/2010 is my actual birthday and as I have for the last 3 years, I plan on spending it at a bar (on 1/16/2010). BUT! Not Forbidden Island this time, no. This year will be Smugglers Cove in SF!

If you wish, come say happy birthday to me. I plan on being there all day, as I tend to do for my birthday. No drinks buying or presents required, but drink buying is still appreciated.

So yeah, 1/16/2010 at Smugglers Cove SF. Open to close (if we can).

I'm a little sad right now.


I know it's not new news, but I'm a little sad that My Name is Earl is canceled.

It's not Cowboys and Indians anymore


It's Zombies and Hunters!

I live on a very friendly, family oriented street. There are at least 15 kids who live on our block. Right now all the boys in the neighborhood are outside playing Zombies and Hunters! Two of the boys have plastic toy chainsaws and they are chasing the other boys around yelling "You're a Zombie!"

This all makes me very happy, being the Zombie enthusiast that I am.

This is a very spendy pint of almost bad gelato. The gelato it's self is icy and as for the "crunch" in the title of the flavor, doesn't exist. There is tiny bits of cookie in the gelato, but they are either so small they are specs or they are big enough to just be soft. They call it caramel because it has Dulce De Leche in it. On the container it says gelato, but there are no eggs in it so it's really more just plain ole ice cream and poorly done to boot. Even as an ice cream, I am a firm believer of egg in ice cream.
TO make matters worse, their website plays bad music when you visit it. Overall, stay away from this brand, it's just not good.
