Did you know: I owe a lot of my eating habits to my ex's.
Thought of the day: According to my "did you know" it's a good thing because if it were up to me I'd just eat Pizza Rolls and Mama Celeste $1 pizzas everyday. But thanks to the awesome women in my life I now enjoy vegetables, cooking, and other things I've never really eaten much.
BTW, Rashida Jones is on Jimmy Fallon right now. She's my number 1.
Food for thought:

Kimtan, Ollie, Rhoda and I have watched 4 away games at Hooters now and we've won each time. Can you say tradition/trend!
I was so hungry I had to order the chili cheese dogs and baked beans. Delicious.
Parmesan garlic, Daytona, and hot wings galore.
Wanna see why Ollie has a big smile on his face?
He got a picture and free performance from his favorite Hooter girl, Ashley (2nd from the right). Mine is named Katherine (not pictured).

Did you know: In tennis a zero is called "love" because in France, where tennis first became popular, a big, round zero on scoreboard looked like an egg and was called 'l'oeuf,' which is French for 'egg.' When tennis was introduced in the U.S., Americans pronounced it 'love.'
Thought of the day: According to your comment Fets, maybe its because I'm dark so you look even whiter! Ha!
And the conversation between Ollie and Kimtan actually happened when we were eating and watching the Charger game at Hooters this past Sunday. I must say that many of us are noticing the upgrade in Hooter Girls in Rancho Bernardo. Thumbs up. And thanks for the butts. HA!
BTW, check out my food for thought, cuz it looks and sounds crazy delicious.
Food for thought:
Smoked paprika, brown sugar and black pepper and rubbed over thick-cut home-cured bacon with creamy Bellwether Farm’s Crescenza cheese on a crostini. GHAD DAMN!!!

Did you know: The term "on cloud nine" stems from types of clouds numbered according to the altitudes they attain, with nine being the highest cloud. If someone is said "to be on cloud nine", that person is floating well above worldly cares.
Thought of the day: Yes I'm reading the Twilight Saga. Not because I want to find out how great these books are or aren't but simply for the reason about 75% of my coworkers read it and it's always fun to poke fun at others passions, respectfully. But one friend/coworker, Feta aka Laurel in particular said, "you can't make fun of them until you read them." Point taken. So there was a dilemma in fun, but Drew her boyfriend told me, "It's alright dude, she said the same thing to me. But I read them...and now I can and do." TOUCHE!
Currently reading the 4th book which is really random and everything you think could happen...well, it is; therefore making it a tougher read than the previous books. Can't wait to be done with this, its almost as bad as cleansing. Just gotta finish.

Did you know: People "clink" before toasting because it used to be common for someone to try to kill an enemy by offering him a poisoned drink. To prove to a guest that a drink was safe, it became customary for a guest to pour a small amount of his drink into the glass of the host. Both men would drink it simultaneously. When a guest trusted his host, he would then just touch or clink the host's glass with his own.
Thought of the day: Dammit, Black Friday is so close but I wanna buy an Xbox 360 and Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 right now! But...if I do buy it then you will not see me outside my bedroom for a couple weeks and maybe months.
Food for thought:

Rhoda and Kimtan came straight from Vegas to meet up for the game. Crazy kids.

This was just the first batch of meat.
Unlimited carne asada burritos are dangerous.

Cookin up my favorite cheese filled thick bacon wrapped brats.

Did you know: Ships and aircraft in trouble use 'mayday' as their call for help because it comes from the French word m'aidez -meaning 'help me' -- and is pronounced 'mayday'.
