June 2009 Poll - Senor Sanders!

The battle for Yum! supremacy ends with KFC Bell. Or Taco Chicken. Or whatever you want to call it. BW voted for this one. We miss the old local neighborhood KFC Bell. Especially the Tuesday $1.99 Special! *sob*

Congratulations, Senor Sanders.

Horn Tootin'!

So, from 1998-2002 I played keyboards in a band called the kilowatthours. We released 2 EPs, a 7" record and two full-length records on an independent record label named Temporary Residence Limited, out of Baltimore.

Well. A song called "Perfect Fool" off of the last record I appeared on, The Bright Side, appeared as a music interlude on NPR! The day was 6/9/09. Heh. 6/9. I have to say...I was pretty stoked about this.

Follow this link.
The song follows a story about the upcoming Olympics in Sochi. It's towards the end of the page.

Toot. Toot.

AARGHHH!
1) Seriously, dudes. If you are pulling into the center lane to turn left on a busy road, then why dontcha go ahead and PULL INTO the center lane. This one's gonna put me on the 6 o'clock news.
SHEESH!

2) If you are pulling up to a drive-thru window, do me a favor and make sure to PULL UP TO the window! If the window dude has to lean out his window and stretch for your car you are too far away. If you have the room to open your car door and get out and walk to the window to reach the window dude you are too far away.

This post should probably get a "May the Zombies Eat You First" tag as well but I'm trying to stay on my medication. Venting really helps...

AARGHHH!

Heh #6

Reading an article about GM the other day, I realized that "Chevrolet Citation" is an absolutely horRENdous name for a car. Seriously? Who thought that was a good idea? Plus, I doubt that thing could get fast enough to even GET a citation.

I mean, I know the Chevy Nova didn't sell in Latino markets but I can let that slide. Maybe the execs weren't bilingual (if you don't already know this little tidbit, Nova translates into Spanish as "It does not go"). Maybe they were but still thought it sounded badass. That still doesn't excuse the Citation. Sheesh.

Well, here is my Top Ten of Stupidest Names to EVER Give a Car (in no particular order). And, as always, you are welcome. And feel free to add your own in the comments section.

1) Lincoln Assassination
2) Oldsmobile POS
3) Nissan LeMon
4) GMC WTF
5) Infiniti Andbeyond
6) Ford 9/11
7) Mercedes-Benz Fourth Reich
8) Cadillac Ackackackackackack
9) Saab Story
10) Volvo Vulva

May 2009 Poll - Dust. Wind. Dude.

Hemlock or no hemlock. The winner of Biscuit World's latest poll is Socrates Johnson.

Congratulations, Socrates, for edging out the rest of your fellow "Bill and Ted's" castmates.

This is a short post.

NEW Product Review! To Boldly Eat...

Can't say I'm surprised another new movie gets another limited edition cereal. BW reviewed the Indiana Jones Cereal a while ago and here comes another one. Star Trek Cereal comes at you with spiral galaxies of oats and FIVE different marshmallows: Planet Earth, Planet Vulcan, and three different colored Delta Shields. Overall, the cereal is decent. It's basically your average Lucky Charms clone. It runs about average on the MIM (Minutes In Milk) Test. I think that I liked the chocolate puffs in the Indy cereal slightly better. There are definitely better cereals than this one out there but if you are a Trekkie, or just a little curious, then give this a taste. The box will go quickly. Back to the Orion scale (out of 5), this one gets a 3. I'm going to leave movie talk out of this post. Maybe if I get to the theater I'll come back atcha. Later, dudes!
