Cold Lunch
So when I answered all those questions for that game of tag, I actually had a bit of fun reminiscing, so here’s another old-times post. Remember being a little kid and going to elementary school? I almost NEVER had “hot lunch” or the lunch the cafeteria provided. I always had “cold lunch”– which means mom…

The Death Star
If I needed a reason to one day be rich, it would be so that I could build a home theater like this.

27
This thought occurred to me last night: I don’t take life seriously. I really don’t. A couple days ago I turned 27 (thanks to those who wished me a happy birthday 😉 and when I got to work I found what I expected— my cube decorated Star Wars fashion (yeah, bring a light saber with…

I have questions. Questions that need answering!
Having been tagged TWICE for this little game (by both Joel and Llew), I’ve finally taken the time to respond. If only it were like The Ring and once you were tagged you had 7 days to live unless you passed on the curse… Nevermind. I’d have dismissed it if there’d been any stipulations of…

“Hey Allen, you think I could have some of that popcorn?”
For years I’ve been one of the people in the office who complains whenever someone makes popcorn. Why? Because it smells so dang good. I think popcorn is engineered to emit that aroma– so that other people will want some. How the crap do you think movie theaters sell it when it’s so expensive? So…

V-Day 2006
Ehehehe… I have to wonder how Apple nailed me on this one. I recieved 2 e-mail solicitations from Apple regarding Valentines Day. Based on their ads that I’d seen on their web site, I expected something similar, but no… they sent a message tailored to me. Subject: Your valentine gift to you Why tell me…

Miscellaneous ramblings
This morning I was listening to X96 Radio From Hell (the morning show) and they referred to the Training Table as having “gourmet” burgers. Now I understand that there are places that sell expensive hamburgers that are slightly more exotic than your run-of-the-mill Burger King / McDonald’s variety, but “gourmet”? I just don’t know that…

Oprah
I rarely rant about junk mail. I mean, everyone gets piles of it, right? Lately it’s always “free Target gift card!” or “You’ve won a free laptop!” (all you have to do is fill out some survey, subscribe to some promotion, and sell your soul and all your friends’ and loved ones’ souls to the…

It turns out that if you watch enough Arrested Development in one sitting, Ron Howard will narrate your dreams too.

I like how this turned out. Down with flash photography! Wow. I felt like updating but I don’t feel like writing at the moment. Travis and Jeffe have started up new blogs while mine sits in disrepair. Travis now has a digital camera and has some cool photos, and Jeffe is doing a dream blog–…

Two down, one to go
So I just figured out how early one has to arrive at work to get the first parking space. During the last few months I’d occassionally come in at 7 so as to get some hours in before class. I could get here 5 to 7 and there’d already be about 4-5 rows of parking…

sick: the spirit of giving, errr…
Don’t you love the Holidays and the commercialism? Honestly, I love Christmas time. I love the atmosphere, the music, the warmth, etc. But this kills me. Microsoft releases a new video game system which there’s bound to be a shortage of during the Holidays (I recall this happening with the Playstation 2 in Fall of…

Premonitions
So the “big rivalry” game is going on right now– University of Utah vs. BYU. Yeah I went to BYU once, no I don’t care who wins. I haven’t even given it much thought except hearing about it here or there throughout the week. But I recall from my dream last night something about the…

Man. Sam Hawk, how do I love thee, let me count the ways. I just had some of the most amazing Korean food. Not that I haven’ thad it before, but it was so top notch tonight. Spicy grilled pork, mmmm… can’t get enough. And even the kimchi was just… just so tasty, like the…
