Crunchiness →
bestofwikipedia:
Crunchiness is the gustatory sensation of muffled grinding of a foodstuff. Crunchiness differs from crispiness in that a crispy item is quickly atomized, while a crunchy one offers sustained, granular resistance to jaw action. While crispiness is difficult to maintain, crunchiness is difficult to overcome. (via @doesnotexist)

Say what?
I was reading a blog and the writer made reference to “mentalfloss.com” but my brain saw “meatfloss.com”. So, then I felt compelled to check and see if it was taken, and it’s not.
So now I’m left wondering if I should register meatfloss.com or not and if I did, what would I do with it?

small world.
A week or so ago, Ruth and I were winding our way through the Flavian Amphitheater in Rome (you probably know it as “The Colosseum”) when we overheard two American women greeting each other in surprise - apparently they knew each other, but did not know that they were both going to be in Rome, and apparently ran into each other while waiting to get in. At hearing this, I wondered if...
Ugly Americans
We’ve only seen one so far, really. A big douche-bag looking type and his wife/girlfriend/whatever tried to enter St. Peter’s Basilica - she attired in shorts and a tank top (does no one do any research before traveling?). The guard stops them, indicates that they may not enter. The guy gets a “WTF?!” look as the guard explains (in Italian) that the woman must cover her...

Vacation Blogging
So, I’m resurrecting my Tumblr page for the duration of my vacation. I may or may not keep it going after that - time will tell.
Anywho, I will be landing in Zurich in about 9 hours. A generous soul at work upgraded my flights, so I’m set for business class both ways. I haven’t even seen the plane yet, but so far it’s pretty sweet. Faster check-in, faster security line,...

Dear cell phone: stop taunting me.
I hate filling out forms for Brazilian customs.

gotta listen to something, though.
I replaced the motherboard in my PC. Now my PC doesn’t fucking work at all. I am enormously pissed! Never buying ASUS again!!!

"First Things First"
Song of the day. From Phantom Planet’s eponymously titled third album. Which, by the way, is an awesome album to which you should give a listen. So there.
a new streak?
More crazy dreams last night, but I can’t really remember any of them in detail. We’ll see what happens tonight.

AYFS - Are You Fucking Serious
I wish I were taking a class or two this semester.
I really want to take biology or chemistry. BOO TEENAGER SEAN JORDAN FOR BLOWING THOSE CLASSES OFF!
more craziness.
Haven’t had any crazy dreams for a while, but last night was filled with a lot of weird stuff. In one part, I was riding with my Mom and brother in car that was driving over a LONG bridge over some body of water. The bridge was made of ropes, and we had no headlights. Towards the end of the drive, the car morphed into some sort of rollercoaster, and we were zooming around, in the dark, until...
