Baconator FTW

Wed, 26 Nov 2008 23:14:23 -0700

Have you ever been at Wendy’s and thought, “I really should try and eat healthy but that Baconator is calling my name”? Well, you don’t have to ignore the Baconator any more. Here is a comparison of the key nutritional elements of the Baconator and the Chicken BLT Salad

	Chicken BLT Salad	Baconator
Calories	780	830
—from fat	470	460
Total Fat (g)	53	51
Carbs (g)	42	35
Protein (g)	37	56

The Baconator wins in almost every category. And even though it has more calories, it only has 50 more!

Now, if you really want to eat healthy you could get the Chicken Caesar salad with a fat free dressing for only 310 calories. But the point is just because you are getting a salad you are not necessarily getting something healthy.

So, if you find yourself debating over the Chicken BLT salad and the Baconator, just get the Baconator.

Parents' Complete Guide to Day Camps

Wed, 19 Nov 2008 15:20:20 -0700

Today I decided to search my local library’s catalog for John Hodgman’s book “The Areas of My Expertise”. They don’t have it, which is disappointing. However, the list of books that most closely match my search criteria are listed below.

Area seven
Bared fangs
Career smarts
Career strategies to last a lifetime
Careers
Arena /
Arena: Sports SF /
Aren’t you forgetting something, Fiona? /
Aren’t you glad!
Parenthood by proxy
Parenting agreements that work
Parents’ complete guide to day camps
Parent’s guide to childhood medications

I would like to think that if you took the best parts of these books and put them into a single book, you might have something similar to the book I was searching for.

Sharks with Frickin' Laser Beams

Has anyone else seen this? The sharks in Lego Agents Speedboat Rescue have frickin laser beams on their heads. Classic.

Suck it, High Rollers!!!

I’m in Vegas for Devconnections and after a ridiculously huge portion of Shepherd’s Pie at the Cheesecake Factory I put $4 in the penny slots. Well, it must be my lucky day because I won $65. I REALLY wish they had the kind of slots that actually dispense money instead of just beeping real loud because it would have been AWESOME for 6,500 pennies come flying out of that sucker.

Someone has stabilized the famous video of Bigfoot. I can’t believe it took so long for someone to do this.

My sister-in-law grew up to be DJ Lance of Yo Gabba Gabba, which is weird because she doesn’t have that much orange stuff.

The Ghost of Steve Jobs

Tue, 09 Sep 2008 17:01:00 -0600

I’m sorry, but even though he says the rumors of his death are greatly exaggerated, I’m not so sure. I think there’s a good chance that Steve Jobs died recently and his ghost appeared on stage at the iPod event today.

Burt Kunkle

Tue, 09 Sep 2008 12:58:00 -0600

So I’m doing a mock-up of something at work and I needed a list of names to use. I’m tired of using the names of my co-workers and other people I know so I did a quick search for a random name generator. The first one that came up was, not surprisingly, called Random Name Generator. When I generated my list of names, this was the result:

Burt Kunkle
Bo Toke
Andrea Armstrong
Tyrone Focell
Melvin Christman
Dorsey Lalty
Corey Frankenberger
Sydney Vorrasi
Emile Beck
Elliot Porter

Ray Nagin is George Costanza

Sun, 31 Aug 2008 21:21:00 -0600

I’ve read the following quotes from Ray Nagin over the last couple of days:

“You need to be scared”
“If you decide to stay, you are on your own”
“We really don’t have the resources to rescue you after this”

I was reminded of the scene where George Costanza pushes children and an old lady out of the way to escape an apartment fire. I’m sure Ray was the first one out of the city.

Table Tennis Color Commentary

Sun, 31 Aug 2008 21:06:00 -0600

During the Table Tennis Gold Medal match between Ma Lin and Wang Hao, the following remarks were made by the commentators:

“Break it down, style-wise”
“The strongest forehand on the planet, pure power”
“Whoever controls the short, soft balls…”
“Ma Lin has really developed a reputation as being the Jim Kelly of table tennis”
“They respect one another’s power”

Mustache Comb Necklace

Fri, 29 Aug 2008 12:16:00 -0600

There are several funny things about this:

It’s a mustache comb
It’s on a necklace
It costs $168

If I were capable of growing a mustache and had $168, this would be hanging around my neck.

However, the more I think about it, this is the perfect accessory for the man who doesn’t have a mustache. What better way to make friends than to offer to comb someone’s mustache for them.

Generic NBC Interviewer: If I had told you before the race that you would beat Jeremy Warner by .99 seconds, almost 1 full second, would you believe me?

Lashawn Merritt: Sho’ would have.

I love this time of year, when disarticulated feet migrate across the ocean to spawn on the beaches of the pacific northwest.

Kung-Fu Jesus is my favorite Jesus.

Is This Even English?

Thu, 31 Jul 2008 17:12:52 -0600

Talking about “I Want to Hold Your Hand” by The Beatles, Ger Tillekins said:

“There is the downward modulation in the middle eight, where the home key of G is shifted to C by pivoting on the minor fifth…”

I know nothing about music but I’m almost positive that he’s just making this stuff up.
