Free Advertising for Milk Street Cafe

I love Milk Street Cafe's spinach and strawberry salad, served with balsamic dressing. To an unreasonable degree. Now I know that they did not invent this concept, that I am perfectly capable of making one myself, etc. But I love that they make it, that people in my office order it for meetings, and that there are always leftovers (the only explanation being everyone in the meeting must be insane).

I would happily eat way more of this than any of the following, all of which are major vices of mine:

  1. Oreos
  2. Cheetos (or generic equivalent, puffy or crunchy)
  3. Pringles
  4. French fries
  5. Fried dough
  6. Turkey Hill Choco Mint Chip ice cream (a newly discovered vice - so excellent, the chips are tiny and melt in your mouth, not giant hard crunchy chunks like other brands)

So thank you, Milk Street Cafe. May you live a long and prosperous life and never stop serving this salad. Now I'm off to get my second giant heaping plate of salad leftovers. (You can't yell at me! It's salad! With fruit!)

Oh, yes, that makes perfect sense

Apparently some people are complaining that it is so hard to get guns in this country that the students who were killed at Virginia Tech on Monday were left defenseless, and that if guns were easier to get then they could have all had their own guns and fired back.

Does it not occur to said people that not everyone wants to carry a gun? Or, in fact, that there's a problem with the theory that our society is so fucked up that everyone should constantly be armed with loaded guns because at any second someone could open fire in a random place like a school or office and it would really be best if you were constantly prepared for assault?

Seriously, whatever you think about the right to bear arms, I have a problem with the idea that it would have been best if every student on campus was walking around with a gun 24-7.

Yesterday might have been WTF Wednesday but I'd like to christen today Shut-the-fuck-up Thursday. And I'd like these people to shut the fuck up.

Really?

Thanks, very nice of you.

First, check my

Amazon.com wishlist

and there's no need to worry that I already have it or won't use it.

Tip: Check around for better pricing. Amazon's pricing is usually good, but not always the best available.

A quick Froogle search can't hurt.
