They're crazy or worse...

At Costco they had this package of nuts. So, either it reads "Everyone is nuts" or worse, "Everyone's (possessive) nuts." The fact that they are from California doesn't really help clarify anything. So, either way, I'm not going to eat everyone's nuts.

What's your pleasure? How about CPR.

I arrived in LA Thursday morning. I spent the day trying to get some work done. I was barely successful. When I got to the hotel, I noticed several oddly dressed women in the lobby. They had on more than the average amount of leather. I didn't think much of it, this is LA. Later that evening, I went to the gym. That's where I saw the sign in the picture... "Welcome to DOMCON". Based on what I'd seen, I guessed that meant dominatrix conference. The next morning, while at breakfast, I heard a couple of women talking about the conference. They were specifically talking about the CPR class. I guess if your client has a dodgey heart, that training will come in handy!

"World's greatest burger..." Not

We flew back from DC on Monday. Since we flew on American from National, we were presented with the option of getting a burger from Fuddruckers. It seemed like a good idea since they usually have good food. We got our burgers and were slightly disappointed with the hockey pucks we received. It made me wish we'd flown another airline to go out of the gates by Five Guys which actually has the best burgers.

Things that are new: Mint crisp M&Ms

We found these at the commissary the other day. They are the Indiana Jones special edition. The flavor is a bit odd, but overall not too bad. I give them a 7 out of 10. Worth a try.

Things that are new: wildly cherry M&Ms

We found these at the Davis store in Fairfax Station. On a scale of 10, we all thought they were good and gave them a 8.5. Definately worth a try.

10 miles to go

A search for Cheerwine in Virginia lead to a long drive to get a buy one get one free dozen Krispy Kreme donuts. After passing through Lorton, Wes said "it's like ten more miles..." he was right. The drive was worth it for hot Krispy Kreme though. The bad news was that they don't give free samples anymore. Cheap bastards!

Jodi likes sausage...

This is the first time I've been into the "D" terminal in Las Vegas. As Russ and I walked to the other terminal, we say this place. Nothing like a sausage kingdom.

What is this?

It would probably make a good background on the computer. Use comments to guess what it is. Best guess gets a gift card.

EDIT 01 Apr 2008: Only one guess??? I guess that's enough. Rhondi was pretty close! It's actually ice on the sliding glass door at the back of our house. The south side of our house was completely covered in ice the other morning... the front was perfectly clear. The temperature kept going up and down during the morning... one minute things would melt, the next it would freeze solid. I guess I'll be sending her a gift card! :)

Tasty snacks...

This is one of the things they were serving at the Marriot for our team meeting. Mmmm... mouse. I hope the chef had a different menu!
