things that annoy me…will it ever stop!?

Wednesday, June 18th, 2003

so…
Mountain Dew. I used to drink Mountain Dew by the liter. Then I realized that I was consuming upwards of 900 calories a day in just the Dew. But that’s a different story, for a different time.
Mountain Dew jumped the shark last year with the addition of Code Red to it’s line up of one […]

things that annoy me…yet again

Wednesday, June 18th, 2003

so…on the same trip to the store I noticed something else that bugs me: product diversification.
Hormel makes Turkey Spam now. Because “Spam” means “spiced ham” and turkey is healthy, so it must be healthy spiced ham, without the ham, so, Spurkey?
Dinty Moore is now in the business of making boxed dinners that have absolutely […]

so…something that annoys me:
we were walking through the supermarket yesterday, and we couldn’t find a small size of anything!!!
I don’t want a super size! I don’t want an industrial size tub of nacho chesse! I just want a serving or two.
I just wanted a small jar of pickles. Not something that is going to get […]

playing catch…up

so…I’ve been quiet. It seems like some others have been too. Maybe it’s the sudden good weather, or maybe…it’s something else…
not so random goings-on:
Happy Bunker Hill Day! Ummm…I know you don’t know what I’m talking about. It’s only a holiday in Suffolk County Massachusetts (and probably all of Maine…which is really screwy). But it means […]

so…can I just say that Comcast On Demand rocks!!! And to think I was going to get rid of the digital cable, and downgrade to standard analog cable.
I’m not even interested in the pay movies, although it’s pretty cool to have 140 PPV channels. The cool thing is the 600 other things to watch.
Today we […]

soft

Sunday, June 8th, 2003

on our way home today, we were scanning the radio stations…found “When I Come around” by Green Day on some station…

…after the song, the station identification came on: it was a soft rock station.
Green Day is soft rock now…

very interesting…

so…this morning, while I was at work, Erika IM’d me a link for The Memory Hole. I tried it, and it didn’t work. She was at home, and it worked just fine.
Now, I’m on campus, and I can access the site.
What could possibly be on this site that my company doesn’t want me to see?
Better […]
