Scotts Baking Tip #1

If you make a 2 layer cake, and you think its a cool idea to put a thick layer of pudding in the middle, and one of the main ingredients in your pudding is milk, you should probably refrigerate your cake. On a related note, sour butterscotch pudding tastes a little bit like beer.

Chrome [Beware, Technical Content]

I've been playing with Google Chrome for the last two days. Its a new web browser from Google. So far I like it. Its fast and fairly low profile. Give 'er a try.

Money Can Buy Happiness!

You may have heard that money can't buy happiness. I disagree. If you want to see it in action, click the button below. Your 1 time E-Z payment of only $29.95 will be used to buy me the OU game on Pay-Per-View (August 30, 2008). And I will be a very happy man. 8/31/2008 Update: Too late. I'm not happy.

Summer Cold

That's what I have right now. In fact everyone in our house has it, though the kids aren't as bad as Deborah and I. And thankfully so since they start school tomorrow. I usually try fighting off a cold with about 2 gallons of orange juice. Since Saturday I've consumed 1, 1 gallon jug of Minute Maid pulp free orange juice, about half can of Minute Maid pulp free orange juice from concentrate, and 2 of the single serving bottles, however big those are, 12 ounces or whatever. And I don't feel any better. So now, I'm drinking this . Its horrible. I'm not a drinker. I never have been, and I never will be. But I'm willing to have a little Crown Royal if its going to get rid of my cold. So far I'm not feeling any better. Maybe I should make it a double. And then I think I'll operate some heavy machinery. PARTY! (Wow 2 posts in one day. It must be the Crown talkin')

Embarrassing Moment

I just remembered an embarrassing moment from many many years ago. I'm not sure what triggered the memory, maybe the rain. I was 16 and had the pleasure of driving myself to church one Sunday evening in the summer...in my dads old station wagon. (No that's not the embarrassing moment, I drove it all the time. My friends dubbed it 'the party wagon') There were some visitors at church that night, one being a girl my age that I thought was pretty cute. After church me and my buddies stealthily followed them to see where they lived. We were lead to an apartment complex not too far from my parents house. We didn't stop but did come back later, performing the typical teen "drive-by-the-cute-persons-house". Cute girl was outside, with her sisters, and her friends. She recognized us, waved at us so we stopped to meet her. We had only been there a few minutes and it started to rain. My buddies and I piled back into the party wagon, drove out of the parking lot, tu...

Wall-E

Deborah and I took Zane to see Wall-E today. It was pretty good but it was a bit more serious than most Disney-Pixar movies. The movie had 2 very prominent themes at the root of the storyline. One was that we need to take better care of our planet and reduce our amount of waste. The second was that we need to take better care of our bodies and exercise and eat right. Deborah and I discussed it over lunch at McDonald's .

That's Hot

Happy first day of summer .

Food Allergy

I think I might have a food allergy. Oddly enough, it seems to be related to how much I eat rather than what I eat. Because of stress over my job situation over the last 6 months, and well just the fact that I like to eat, I've been consuming more food than I had been. Apparently this has triggered some sort of allergy because my body seems to be more swollen lately. It's really weird.

Bertie Bots

Tanner and Zane were eating some sort of random candy or something the other day: Tanner: "Here try this one" Zane: "What does it taste like?" Tanner: "I dont know, try it" Zane: (Puts some of it in his mouth) "Hey its Waffle!" Tanner: "What!? Let me try...(puts some in his mouth)...Thats butterscotch"
