Those of my friends who have friends or family in Europe will recognize that I have been trying to get my hands on Crumpets for quite some time. Only recently, have I searched the Internet shopping mall known as Amazon.com and finally found these english muffin-like treats. I placed the order less than a week ago, and they arrived at my doorstop.

Let me start with the packaging. Definitely exciting as they say right on the package that they are incredible. “Incredible Crumpets”. I am dissapointed however, as they were Made in America, but I guess I can overlook small details. They are, after all, european style Crumpets, from a company that sells all european groceries.

I invite all of you (yes you too) to join me one of these days, for a relaxing afternoon or evening of Tea and Crumpets.

I wish I had a camera right now. I’m sitting at my desk under a palm tree sipping a pina colada from a pineapple with 2 beach balls and a shitload of candy.

Today is our companies annual BBQ. They bring out food (burgers, dogs, chicken, sausage, etc), games (contests, dunk tank, basketball, etc), and give staff additional time to enjoy the festivities. As always, I made it a point to sign up for everything (somehow, they didnt schedule me for the water-baloon toss, but I took part in the limbo and pie eating contests.

I didn’t have much of a chance in the Limbo. It was me and 2 other big guys up against a gymnist. She was tiny and could practically walk under the pole while we were straining to get under the damn thing. She could even get under it at it’s lowest placement. I guess I could say I tied for second place, but I don’t know thats much of an accomplishment.

I had my chance to shine in the pie-eating contest. I won it last year, so I had a reputation to uphold. We were given a small 5 inch pie with whipped cream topping piled on. Mine was a cherry pie! Upon being told to begin, I plowed right past the whipped cream into the pie itself and sucked down that pie like.. well, no need to get vulgar in here… Needless to say, I prevailed once again and maintained my title as pie-eating champion.

So here I sit, with a pineapple water bottle filled with pina-colada (non-alcoholic unfortunately), a few beach balls, a pile of candy pouring out of a canvas bag, a yo-yo, and an inflatable palm tree which I stole from the hallway.

Does anybody want the domain names DDRLI.COM or LIDDR.com?

I don’t think I’m going to renew them. It’s coming up soon so if you can use em I’ll transfer them to you. If not, they’ll go back on the market to anybody who wants them

Kevin Smith succeeded in re-creating the magic of the silver screen that was experienced more than 10 years ago in his 1994 hit, Clerks.

I just got back in from seeing Clerks II and I admit, I feared that the new Clerks couldn’t live up to the classic that if you haven’t seen, you best head to blockbuster right now. I started to get the feeling that it had more of a pop-culture/teenie-flick feel to it. But I was wrong. I couldn’t have been more wrong.

Clerks II welcoms back Dante and Randal, Jay and Silent Bob and gives us a story of broken dreams, love, bestiality (umm interspecies erotica), manginas, and new beginnings. Even if you haven’t seen the original Clerks, Clerks II is chock full of the swift, slick, sick and demented humor that assures you’ll be hunched over in pain from laughing so hard.

Do yourself a favor and head to the movies. This is a must see!
