http://www.salon.com/tech/feature/2001/02/08/schlosser_interview/index.html. He makes some valid points about the deliberate homogenisation of food by major chains and reckons one in four meals in America are fast food. My nephews can go a whole day without food in a, unfortunately not-silent, protest at being denied a Happy Meal. It doesn't make me a happy Aunt. But do McDonalds and Burger King really taste that great or are we just lazy and are our taste buds getting artifically manipulated? |
But what's wrong with a little spine now and then, eh? It's just more cow. Unless you count that pesky Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. (Mad cow...) But I was startled by the stats on how fast beef is produced in slaughter houses in America. And that the FDA really has no real authority over beef inspection... Uf dah! |

Pizza from Pizza Hut, All pepsi cola soft drinks, all Doritos made snack chips, and of course taco bell... I'm telling you they are putting crack in the food. |
|
Premasticated buns so we dont hafta chew. republicans who mental-masturbate and democrats who SHAFTA you. gotta wonder what they're puttin in da rain these days... the only safe place is an air conditioned motel room in Sarasota, with double locks on the doors, and no tv... |
|
i wish that dragon's was opened more than just 11-1:30 on weekdays. better than burger king and cheaper too. you're still not safe. what about the chemicals in those airconditioners? freeon and stuff. and those little soaps they put in the bathroom? man... |
It's only safe in the Quickie Mart these days, and if you're wearing full body condoms, candy flavored of course, and standing in the freezer waiting for dead cats to wander in and buy Slurrpees... It's only safe in the reclining front seat of a 626 if the doors are locked. It only safe if the airport is empty. It's only safe in Walmart in you do it in the Bridal Department. It's only safe in the woods under a German feather blanket and surrounded by the smells of strong coffee brewing. On a different note, I made some killer potato salad and baked beans yesterday, but I sliced off the end of my thumb into the lettuce and goat cheese salad. I'm apparently not safe when alone. Duct tape. Kitchen safety rule number one: always have the duct tape in reach. |
I know, I'm driving a rolling gas bomb, but hey whats life without a little danger eh'? |
|
i keep a first aid kit, flashlight and ice scraper in the cab of my car. spare fuses in the glove box. additional first aid, flashlight, jumprecables, shoes, water, maps in the trunk. and for other emergencies, i keep a book of pickup lines and a blanket on the backseat. |

It's not about the happy clown of death. It's not about the guy cleaning his M16 in the basement, with pictures of you on his walls. It's not about the billboards with glittering reflective paint. It's not about some website where everyone has an opinion and is not afraid to use it. It's not about the unhappy ending in the foreign film. It's not about the bleeding fingers of the 11-year-old violin student. It's not about the unseen paper cut and the tempting last pickle in the jar. |
It takes time to cook really good soup. It takes time. Til the calves on both the backs of your legs begin to tingle. |
"Hey mister, you want fries with that?" |
i actually slept on saturday. i was supposed to be doing my math, but i was so tired i laid down and took a three hour nap. last night i might've had four hours of sleep between work, laundry, and calling for my kitty to come in. "ssssssssssssssssssyyyyyyylllllllllllllllvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvviiiiiiiiiiiieeeeeee!!!! sssssssssssssssssyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyylllllllllvvvvvvvvviiiiiiiiieeee!" |
|
it's the hardcore pork rind experience. that's where cheech marin got his name, ya know. |
|
in spanish, though. pork rinds do kind of look like fried embryos, if you think about it. |
|
|
And they're available in Montana, too. Probably all over. |
|
(mmmm... death) |
|
|
All you have to do is get some mayo, and some diced jalapenos... Then BLEND... Add as much as you want, although I recommend starting with a small amount so you don't over power it... Get your blend just right and then you have your mayo. |

I am quite sunburned from going to watch the Mendo parade. It was not as fantastic as usual, alas, but there were plenty of scantily clad, attractive women, so I was happy. |
|
then I got burnt out by this job. don't have the energy it seems. maybe it's just posting in this environment. |
|
im not that interested in eating the real deal. |
