Damn You All to Hell!

As an avid NBC4 news watcher, I am often informed of free giveaways and specials by newscasts. Weeks ago Doreen Gentzler shared with the public that if you went to Z Burger in Tenleytown and at the register said to the cashier "Shaaazam!" you'd receive a free burger. This information is obviously vital to my survival.

Similarly, I recently learned from a NBC4 broadcast that Dr. Pepper was going to uphold its promise to give a free soda to everyone in America if "Chinese Democracy" was released this year. Weee! Free Dr. P!

Or not.

I was thirsty. I Googled. And sadly, I'm still thirsty.

I found the website to sign up for the coupon (which would be delivered promptly in 4-6 weeks) and this is what showed up on my screen:



Crap. Jibberish. What the fuck?

Bottom line? No free Dr. Pepper...
Sad day, folks. Sad day.

Yeah, so what if I went there?


Arod Ruins Everything


I first saw this a few weeks ago. I love me some Guitar Hero but honestly, this just leaves a really bad taste in my mouth. Almost don't want to buy it anymore. Almost...

Chris Bosh: A Retrospective

Chris Bosh is team leader for the Toronto Raptors. He was also a valued member of the Olympic "Redeem Team". While he often fell into foul trouble and his shooting percentage was less than stellar, having him on the bench as I watched the Olympics was nice. If for nothing else that in stressful moments at the end of a game I could look at the team bench and see Chris Bosh and immediately think of Jurassic Park. He is a friggen modern day velociraptor.


Please enjoy this set of side-by-sides.




Look at that bone structure!


With his speed and impressive vertical leap, Bosh uses his velociraptor attributes to succeed in the NBA.









This shit is just deadly. Look at those murderous eyes!




Mouth poised for the kill.



Chris Bosh: 1
King James: 0



I rest my case.

Solid work with Crayolas

One of my favorite people in the world who is a First Grade Teacher sent me this picture earlier today.

A student in her class who previously demonstrated the propensity to create drawings like those in Superbad was at it again.

This time, his work was copyrighted.

One has to wonder at age 6 what on earth he's doing drawing Master Shake and Frylock. Obviously he's been exposed to the awesomeness that is Adult Swim at his tender young age. Will he be the next Seth McFarland? One can only hope...Bottom line, this child straight up rocks.

Bravo Producers STILL Rock

Somehow the Top Chef producers managed to find a chef who hails from the giggle worthy establishment of DiLido Beach Club who resembles Jesse Spencer, also known as Dr. Robert Chase on House.

Meet Jeff McInnis of Niceville, Florida. Yes, I said it. Niceville.

Thank you again to the Bravo producers. You've done your work brilliantly and it will pay off in dividends. Because yes, I speak for the 18-24 female demographic.

Bravo Producers Rock

Meet Carla Hall, chef and owner of Alchemy Caterers. While Carla enjoys enjoys creating memorable comfort dishes with fresh, seasonal and local ingredients we enjoy thinking of Carla as part of the cast of Ice Age. Hello Sid!

Go figure.
