Adventure

Adventure has a name. And my name is Captain Cheddar.
(Please, don’t confuse me with Adventure.)
At lunch today, I diligently sawed through a grilled chicken and broccoli pizza. While a good meal, the effort involved in cutting made it, pardon the pun, difficult to swallow.
That’s when I realized: I usually don’t eat food for nutritional content, or even for taste. I eat food based on its Fun Level. And that pizza was definitely not Fun.
Let’s look at bagels, for example. Even the freshest bagel chews like a steak. And it’s typical that when you get your hands on the last cinnamon raisin bagel, your coworkers have only left you a full tub of Sun Dried Liver and Lime cream cheese. There’s no Fun there, either.
Foods like walnuts are fun only for certain personalities, namely the destructive ones, or those with anger management issues, as they can relish each crushing blow made to the nut’s outer shell. This is why the French love escargo.
Other foods that are fun to eat:
Fettuccine or Spaghetti
Nachos
Calamari – I’ve never actually had calamari, but I’ve joined a calamari fan club on YouTube, and I can tell you that eating it looks like a BLAST.
Dave suggested “Ice Planets” as another fun food, though I’m not certain if that was broken freezer humor or he’s just a fan of really large snowcones.
Command & Conquer for Free?!

Woohoo! It’s like Christmas came early! Or late! Anyway, EA is offering Command & Conquer 1, C&C: Red Alert, and Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun (plus expansion pack) for free!
Check it out here: Free games!
Now is it 33 or 45?

Nothing against the game itself, but the best part of the Bioshock 2 CE?
The downside… I listened to half of the thing at 45 rpm. Didn’t notice. Ugh.
California Vs. Las Vegas

I’m thrilled as can be that they released the trailer for Fallout: New Vegas. I find it exciting to see the series returned to the hands of many of the people who helped create it.
I want to know: was there a noticeable increase in downloads of Sinatra’s Blue Moon after the release of this trailer?
A Fun Activity…

So I’m thinking of forming a Future Military Reenactor’s Guild. We’d reenact all great battles that have yet to take place. For example: The Battle of Luna City, The Siege of Tharsis Montes, and the Second Secession of Pluto. Any one else interested?
