Fart Bomb

December 29th, 2004 @ 12:20 pm by Tim

I’ve gotta tell you, I’m really excited about this song. It really came together quite quickly. The lyrics were written in the car in about 15 mins. and the music came together one saturday. Everything was pretty much recorded in the first or second take and BAM! Fart Bomb was born. And the results are massive.

Burnt Cheetos and Other Varieties

December 20th, 2004 @ 10:17 pm by Tim

Every once in a while, when you’re snacking on a bag of Cheetos, at the bottom you might find a little nugget of death. I’m not sure what causes these little guys, but they are pure evil. Brownish orange in color and denser than a normal Cheeto, the “Burnt Cheeto” tastes pretty foul. We got two of them in this bag of Cheetos Crunchy.

Nastiness.


On a Cheeto related note, I also recently bought a bag of Cheetos Twisted. I thought I was just getting a bag of normal “puffy” Cheetos, and in a way, I did. They had the same consistency as the “puffy” Cheetos, but instead of a curl, they are cork screw shaped. The first one I ate caught me off guard, as I put the whole thing in my mouth, not realizing each one is a good 3-3.5″ long and 1-1.5″ in diameter. I almost choked on the thing. These are big honkers.


Typing this post made me realize how stupid the names “Cheetos Crunchy” and “Cheetos Twisted” are. I guess “Cheetos Puffs” kind of makes sense, but wouldn’t you much rather say “Crunchy Cheetos” or “Twisted Cheetos?”

Report from the Mall: Christmas 2004

A lot of people (who shall remain nameless) think God is a stick in the mud for creating the universe and not taking responsibility for it.  They say trite stupid shit like, “I can’t believe in God, because how can I believe in an all-powerful being that could make such a messed up world.”

101 philosophy may wow her over wine, but I’m not her, nor would I employ that method of attack to get in her pants.  Instead I’d tell her, “God is a stoned teenager, who steals his parent’s car so he can hotrod around town all the while never knowing the true root of his delinquency.  He’s the greatest artist of all time, full of self loathing and directionless angst.  I heard he was the 4th member of Nirvana.  Now show me your breasts - I love you.”

Yum Yum.

Let me tell you a little story. It’s called “Dr. Brown’s Cel-Ray Soda Sucks Raw Ass.” I saw it in the store and figured I’d try it out. Unfortunately, they only had a six pack, which means I have 5 cans of this crap left over after I got done dumping the first one out.

Dr. Brown's Cel-Ray

When I first cracked open the can and smelled it, all I thought of was vinegar. Others backed up my opinion. Its lightly colored like champagne, lightly carbonated, and tastes vaguely like really sweet, really weak ginger ale. Or something. The point is, it’s fucking nasty. I have no idea what this guy is talking about. Of course, his website is called “Peculiar Pops! The Michie’s Exotic Soda Site,” yet there is not one carbonated drink on “The Best” page.

Steer clear.

School Is For Pussies

December 10th, 2004 @ 8:25 pm by Tim

Here’s an anthem for you. Its called “School Is For Pussies.” Mike wanted to have a spoken intro with two kids talking about how school sucks. I, on the other hand think novelty talking intros suck, especially on novelty songs. Nothing bugs me more than having to listen to dumb-ass skits over and over again before a song. Needless to say, there is no talking intro.

Crescent Dogs

December 9th, 2004 @ 9:25 pm by Tim

The other day, we were about to cook some Pillsbury butter flake crescent rolls to complement our dinner, when the recipe on the side of the canister caught my eye. Crescent dogs sounded like a good idea. We had the hot dogs. We had the cheese. Sounds like a winner.

Dough in a can

The recipe is simple. Cut the dogs, stuff some cheese in, and wrap them with the crescent roll dough. Two tips:

  1. When you cut the hot dogs for the cheese stuffing, don’t cut them end to end. If one makes a “pocket” in the hot dog, the cheese won’t melt out the end.
  2. Flatten the dough triangle with your fingers some to make it wider before wrapping so you can get better coverage on the dogs.

Stuff 'em good

Raw dog

Thats it. Throw ‘em in the oven and you’re finished. I found they needed to be cooked a good deal long than the directions stated so that the bread cooked through. Though if you eat this stuff raw sometimes like we do, its no big deal if they are a little undercooked.

Yummy!


On a side note, I searched the web briefly to see if anyone talks about eating Pillsbury dough raw and all I got were sites about eating cookie dough. The first site is some blog. The post about cookie dough has an interesting comment (3rd one down). I never thought of eating lard…
