Motivational Posters (not)

Made up some posters today with a new pic of JJ, and an old pic of me and my little brother..

The Secret Menu

The secret menu at In-n-Out Burger only enhances the original menu. Animal style burgers are my favorite. Mustard grilled bun, thousand island-ish spread, pickles, and grilled onions. Well last night my brother Tim and I were headed there for a burger and he reminded me that some In-n-Out's have chopped chili's. Well, I asked the guy in the drive through for them and he was almost excited we asked, "Oh yeah absolutely we have those bro-ham, you want some of those bad boys on your burgers and/or fries!?". Ok, maybe he didn't say all that, but... Oh my GOD were they good. Not green chili's like you would find in an Ortega can, but more like chopped up spicy banana peppers or wax peppers. Put that animal style burger I love into a whole new category of amazingness.

TRY IT! You never know if they have it unless you ask!

Scam Survey

I'm about to lose my mind. You know the surveys on the back of receipts? The ones that say take this survey for a chance to instantly win x amount of dollars? Yeah, it's a lie! I took this damn survey twice now. The dead giveaway that it's a scam is that at the end of all the questions it says "press 1 to leave a message for the manager", "press 2 to leave a message for something else.", "PRESS 9 TO FINISH THIS SURVEY!" When you press 9 it thanks you and then says "unfortunately, you are not this week's instant winner."

Don't most voicemail/phone services like this use "9" as the "end the call" button.. so how in the hell can you instantly win from an automated service? I'm calling bullshit... bullshit indeed. Someone needs to go online to the (referenced by the recorded voice) list of "winners" and track these people down and find out HOW they won and what the automated system did when they supposedly won...

I really think it's a scam to get you to call and give them feedback. I really do...

Some dialogue:

"There's the Shiz!"
"Here, this is for Shiz"
"For Shiz?"
"For Shizzle"
"what is she gonna do with these needles?"
"Shiz knits!"

WTF?

I'm trying to find something that I can do at work that would be a fun, short distraction from my work. So, its time for the PFL (paper football league). In looking online for how to make paper goal posts.. I found this:

One, this goal post is made out of that toy Knex. Two, dont flick that paper football too hard, you'll take out the small Jesus statue!

WTF?

Movie Reviews

"The curious case of Benjamin Button"

I'm no longer curious about the case of Benjamin Button. In fact, I'm more curious what I can spend 2 and a half hours doing that will make up for the time I wasted watching that movie. The movie wasn't good. It left me with no feelings at all. I was only halfway grabbed by the cinematography, scenery, and elegance this movie promised to deliver, not nearly enough to digest the amount of symbolism painted acrossed almost every frame. I give it one star... :P

"Harold and Kumar escape from Guantanamo Bay"

It's a stoner movie. I'm not reviewing this. Actually, the dialogue between the two main characters in this movie was funny the first go around. In this sequel it's more of the same slapstick humor with a sprinkling of racist humor and a little bit of Neil Patrick Harris completely making fun of himself (which I love) thrown in the mix. I really don't remember much of it. Anyone my age watching this movie, probably doesn't remember it. Do any of the older generations remember watching the Cheech and Chong movies? Probably not.. you probably just remember waking up with stomach pain, from eating and laughing. I'm not going to rate this movie.. but I'm going to give the spaghetti pie I made last night 4 stars... ;)
