For those of you who aren’t code monkeys (as well as strongbad fans) and can’t read my garbled attempt at computer humor… I went to the dentist the other day and had three cavities filled. Not that exciting, but the catch is, I need to go back and get three more filled. Somehow my mouth decided to depricate into broken shards of bone. I’m putting this guys kid through law school. Yeesh. So here’s a nice little tip for everyone: Floss. Floss every day. Floss twice a day. It’s worth it in the long run.

I walked out of the elavator this morning and as I always do, I looked at the soda machine, longing for a Mountain Dew. I noticed however that the readout on the machine said ‘5.00′. Instinctively I pressed the Mountain Dew button and out popped a Dew and $4.40 in change. A good start to my day.

p>Vanilla Coke made me throw up the first time I had it. Mountain Dew Code Red made me so hyper I thought it was some unholy alliance between methamphetamines and Hawaiian Punch. Well now they are working on a new one called Mountain Dew LiveWire. Apparently an orange style Mountain Dew. I’m imagining something similar to a super-caffeinated Orange Slice. shrug

Think Secret has the story and pictures. Let’s hope it’s true and I might look into using Safari a bit more often. Chimera is still tops for me right now.

Matt, Bridget, and I were in the Ice Cream store next to Minneo’s Pizza on Saturday. I ordered a cup of Peanut Butter Fudge, Bridget got a cup of Peppermint Patty, and Matt ordered a coffee. We got our stuff and Matt prepared his coffee. After adding sugar and cream the girl behind the counter asked him, “Do you want me to top that off?” To which Matt replied, “I don’t know what that means. I’m not from around here.” Now, I’m not a linguist or even much of a judge of colloquialisms, but I don’t think “top it off” is a regional saying. Am I wrong here? Has anyone out there not heard that expression before?

1. I have the ability to drink 24 ounces of Mountain Dew at 10:00pm, but be asleep by 10:20pm.
2. I laugh out loud and talk to myself on the bus so people won’t sit next to me.
3. I get heartburn from drinking water.
4. I have seen the 1986 Fiesta Bowl over 80 times.
5. I like black licorice, circus peanuts (the orange pseudo-marshmallow things), and black jellybeans.
