I\’m sorry, I can\’t touch your meat
On a related topic to the Muslim Cab Drivers that Wade and I discussed, I recently came across this: http://www.buzz.mn/?q=node/898. Had this happened to me, I probably just would have scanned my own pork product and moved on. But obviously this has got a lot of people worked up…and perhaps rightfully so.

St. Patrick\’s Day: What I Got
Do the words \”Happy St. Patrick\’s Day!\” make you dry heave? Then you didn\’t drink enough this past Saturday! I spent the day with my wife and mother-in-law, which isn\’t nearly as bad as you might think. We spent St. Patrick\’s Day together back in 2003, and it was a very fun time. So we…

The Jerk Store Called…
If you\’re looking for a new non-fiction book to read, without reading it myself, I would recommend: The No A—— Rule, by Robert I. Sutton.

\”I WANT BOOBY\”
I recently came across a blog entry on startribune.com the touched on a hot button issue in American society today: breastfeeding. In this case it was not just breastfeeding, but breastfeeding children who are 3, 4, or even 5 years old.

Raging Bull****
(Ed. Note: Wade and wadE were both working on this same story, Wade just published first. Oddly enough their two takes are quite similar. Great Wades think alike) When the story first broke on Muslim cab drivers at MSP (Minneapolis – St. Paul airport) were refusing to allow passengers carrying alcohol (in their luggage mind…

\”Get to know \’em!\”

I\’ve been told that I have a great voice for doing something like voice overs (insert your own \”face for radio\” joke here). I\’m sounding especially raspy as of late since I have bronchitis.…

Death Warmed Over
I\’b thick… Ahhhchoooo… *hack*…. Ptooey Sorry…let\’s try that again. I\’m sick… and I know who gave it to me. Some a-hole at work who showed up on Tuesday looking like death warmed over. By Friday morning I too felt like death, and I too went in to work. Now why would I do such a…

Greatest thing since sliced bread? No-knead bread!
If you caught any of the reports today, you\’d think that the Holy Grail had been found. Apparently a baker in NYC has discovered a recipe for bread that requires no kneading. Praise the deity of your choice!!! It is truly a miraculous age we live in! I should tone down the sarcasm a bit…

I really really want to like this show
One of my favorite TV shows of all time was Sports Night. Created by Aaron Sorkin, it had all the hallmarks of a Sorkin show. Quick, intelligent dialogue. Instant history/back story between two of the major players. A bubbling love affair in the workplace. Multiple subplots. And so on.

Thrifty No More
The Star Tribune website tell me: \”American League MVP Justin Morneau agreed to a $4.5 million, one-year contract today with the Twins\” This isn\’t shocking, but the next bit was, \”(Light hitting, but decent defensive, 3rd baseman Nick) Punto agreed to a $4.2 million, two-year contract.\” Whhhhhaaaaaaa?????! If it wasn\’t past 3:30 on a Friday…
