Random thoughts that are pointless and too dumb to say anywhere else thread: 2008 (Jan. – June)

Ok this should show my ignorance about foreign language to the nth degree but it's been bugging me for sometime now.

How the heck do people in Japan and China type in their language? From what I understand they have thousands of symbols to chose from so how does that fit onto a keyboard? Anyone who has an idea about this and can type it without laughing to hard at my ignorance?

Check out this Wikipedia entry on keyboard layout, for a ton of different languages.

 

I actually also had a random thought:

Every time I see a box of Kix cereal, or eat a bowl of Kix, I think to myself, "Kicks just keep gettin' harder to find." It's like a reflex.

[Thurston Fluff]

Hawing you are wise, kind and wonderful thank you. Rest shall come easier with that piece of trivial knowledge firmly locked in my brain. I wish I could return the favor with Kixing that reflex out of your mind.

[Fatter than Joey]

Kix has to be the worst cereal of all time. I wouldn't use it to insulate my attic.

[And That]

I love watching Paula Dean cook. She reminds me of my grandma and great aunt cooking. Their southern accents weren't as thick, but the food looked (and tasted, I imagine) just as good.

I forgot how fun playing catch was. Unfortunately my arm will probably be dead tomorrow cause it's the first time I threw a baseball in about 8 months.

I just called in my prescription. It will be ready by 3 pm.

[hawing]

Jamie's on drugs! Well, just on drugs - not "DRU-U-U-GS!"

I'm starting a new thing where every 5-7 bites of food, I put the half chewed food in my cheek and take a few gulps of whatever I'm drinking with my meal, then continue chewing. I don't know why I started doing this, why I do it, or how long it will continue for.

 

Also, new sig.

[And That]

I can't find this CD anywhere.

It has an arrangement of "Vorspiel" from "Das Rheingold" that I heard in the movie The New World that I really want for my collection. Boo!

[brewerjamie15]

I like the smell of fresh tar.

[And That]

The Blair Witch Project FREAKS ME OUT EVERY TIME.

I completely blame Ryan Braun for having the Lupe Fiasco - Superstar song stuck in my head. He did this last year with Go Getta as well.

Laura Nyro's pretty great

Boca Burgers are really good. I'm no vegetarian, but Boca Burgers are really good if you are on a diet. I think each burger is 150 calories and 2 grams of fat.

 

A few months ago, I caved in and tried one. Good stuff. It helps that I went to middle school in Spooner, where the cafeterias served some weird soybean/meat hybrid hamburger.

[dadofandrew]

Nothing wrong with Boca Burgers, some brands are close to 100 calories. Need to load 'em up with onions and cheese (fat free), it helps hide the unusual texture. They taste fine.

[danzig6767]

If there is a God, i just want to throw out a big thanks to him for my great metabolism so that i can eat what i please and never have to find out what a Boca Burger tastes like.

[Brian the Automator]

Fuddrucker's actually has an amazing veggie burger.

[hawing]

If for some reason I were no longer allowed to eat "real" brats, I could do all right with Boca Brats.

[bullox]

It's nice going back to old CDs that you haven't listened to in a while and jam out for a while. Thank you The Roots - Phrenology.

[ewizabeff]

I really need to cool it with the cheese fries in a helmet, or my jeans are going to be very angry with me. Maybe I need to switch to Boca Burgers.

 

Also, Ryan Cabrera has a new look....and I really don't like it..

[jason21nl]

I'm not a big fan of feet and the commercial for the Ped Egg is disgusting to me. They show the close ups of feet, then dumping the dead skin into a basket. Gross.

[dadofandrew]

I believe that's a feetaphobe.

[Brian the Automator]

Buffalo Stance is still a great song.

[jason21nl]

Buffalo Stance is still a great song.

hahaha, I was actually just singing this song the other day.
