Pressure cookers are awesome!
A few years ago a friend and co-worker of mine brought in some left overs for lunch that he called porcupine balls and they looked tasty. I asked for the recipe and here it is in Greg’s words. He doesn’t claim to have invented it, but he’s who I heard [...]

Weddings, winnings, and Penn & Teller
A couple weeks ago I visited good old Las Vegas for a wedding. No, not my wedding, but my friend Meg’s cousin’s wedding. Unfortunately for me I also had to try and get some studying in for a calculus exam. Luckily or maybe not so luckily I [...]

French maids serving you lunch in a Japanese cos-play themed art gallery meets cafe meets retail store … what could be more fun!

It was just O K.
A decent shoot ‘em up with lots of CGI bits ‘n’ pieces. But, I’m not writing this to talk about ‘Wanted.’ I’m writing because there was a very small role in the movie played by Terrence Stamp. He’s probably one my favorite actors just because of ‘The Limey.’ [...]

As mentioned in a previous post I spent my last evening in a pub playing trivia.
Team Monkey Army was assembled and ready for battle. Alexis, Josh, Christine, Laurence, and I were armed with our sharp minds and pints of beer!

Team Monkey Army!

WE WON! Sure the 1st place team after round 5 left early, [...]

Call it a ‘tourist trap’ if you want, but they got ‘game.’
Get it?! ‘Game.’ As in game animals . . . to eat. If you’re a vegetarian you might want to turn away for this one. After Alexis waxed poetic on the possibility that she could eat a 72 ounce steak, [...]

After getting my Darth Vader wake up call it was off to Fort Collins, Co.
Got up sorta bright and early to drive north to the New Belgium Brewery, but first I had to pick up my fine ladies. Christine and Alexis. Must give mad props to Christine for picking up a Rockstar energy [...]
