I went.

OK, leave me alone.  I went to the gym.  Rode the bike for 45 minutes and got a great sweat going.  Heading back after dinner to do some lifting.

I weighed myself.  Oy!! How embarassing.

Going to the Gym

I’m going to the gym tomorrow before work.  I haven’t been in about 6 months.  I’m posting it here to make sure I get my ass out of bed in time.  You can all ask me if I went and you’re welcome to mock me incessantly if I don’t go.

Happy Independence Day!

Have a great 4th, everyone!  Be safe and have fun.

Adding Star Wars to Works of Art

Yesterday, I made my first entry into Worth1000’s Photoshop contests. This one required placing Star Wars characters, items, vehicles and scenes into classic art works. I chose to turn David into C3PO.  I don’t love it. I just couldn’t dull the shine of the metallic body to look a little more like marble.

Check out the full size photo here.

Happy Canada Day!

To all you Canuckleheads.

Who Wants To Be a Marine Biologist?

David Gallo shows some amazing footage of life below the ocean.  My favorite is the squid that changes half of his body to a friendly brown that faces a female and the other half to an an aggressive white that faces other males.  Watch all the way to the end to see the amazing transformation of the octopus.

Urinal Cake Scented Candle

“Bring the industrial chemical freshness of a public restroom right to your home,” says candle company Hotwicks.  This describes the only candle I know of with the scent of “urinal cake.”

From their website:

We’re often asked if THE URINAL CAKE CANDLE smells like pee. It doesn’t. It’s a cinnamony floral smell that’s modeled after a urinal cake our founder once relieved himself on at the Bellagio Hotel in Las Vegas. This candle covers both number 1 and number 2 odors and has become a regular contributor in the HOTWICKS world headquarters bathroom. This is the perfect gift for anyone that likes tacos, asparagus, and really hot chicken wings.

Like all of our scents, THE URINAL CAKE CANDLE is hand made in the USA (take that China!) and comes in a cool 8 oz tin that’s guaranteed to spark up a conversation.

Hotwicks also offers scents of camp fire, coffee, grass, hippie, pigskin, and even a candle that smells like a stripper.

Pancakes in a Can!

I didn’t think breakfast could get any better than Jimmy Dean’s sausage on a stick.  But I was wrong.  According to their jingle, you can “Make a better breakfast, faster!  Batter Blaster!”

And yes!  It’s organic!

I say make even LESS of a mess and shoot this stuff straight into your mouth!

Handlebar Moustache Club

I think I am going to start the Handlebar Moustache Club of Pennsylvania.  My new year’s resolution is going to be to grow a hirsute appendage of the upper lip, with graspable extremities.

If anyone wants to join, drop me a line.
