A story about "ketchup"

nobody@allconsuming.net (me-ow.) — Wed, 18 Oct 2006 09:18:23 GMT

by tomato on the road ;)

Ketchup really is just kind of salty and red-tasting. In my opinion, hot dogs and hamburgers taste wonderful without ketchup, if they’re made correctly. Fries too. However, badly made food with ketchup can someteims taste better if only because the taste of ketchup gives it some taste at all.

A story about "peach yogurt"

peach yogurt

by Meadow Gold

I’m a huge fan of yogurt, but peach yogurt has just always tasted peculiar to me. It’s not sugary enough to flavor the yogurt or light enough to ride on teh slightly sour taste. It’s just there, and when you eat it, you think to yourself, “Oh. Yogurt. And peach. Ah.” There’s no yum factor at all.

A story about "Milk"

Milk

by Dairy Farms

I’ve always loved milk. Which is why I’m tall. Maybe.

It’s healthy, full of calcium, and helps keep your bones non-brittle. I drink non-fat, because I’m so used to it that all other milk tastes weirdly sweet to me.

A story about "green salad"

nobody@allconsuming.net (me-ow.) — Wed, 18 Oct 2006 09:15:22 GMT

green salad

Green salad by itself is only good in small amounts. Good salads with lots of accessories (not the word, I know, but I’m tired) and a light but yummy dressing is good in any amount

A story about "granola"

nobody@allconsuming.net (me-ow.) — Wed, 18 Oct 2006 09:14:41 GMT

granola

Granola is an everything food. It’s healthy and full of fiber and vitamins, but it also tastes good and sweet. You can eat it as a snack. It’s portable as trail mix. You can soak it in milk as cereal. You can even bake it into little snacks. I’ve done that, with honey, granola, and marshmallow, and they’re yum.

A story about "Chicken Feet"

nobody@allconsuming.net (me-ow.) — Wed, 18 Oct 2006 09:13:25 GMT

Chicken Feet

I don’t understnad how to eat them. Which I guess is odd, as I’m Chinese American and people think I should know these things and enjoy eating foods like chicken feet. Don’t get me wrong, I love most weird Chinese foods. But chicken feet are scrawny and have a weird tang. =(

A story about "Pepsi"

nobody@allconsuming.net (me-ow.) — Wed, 18 Oct 2006 09:12:11 GMT

Pepsi

by PepsiCo, Inc.

Actually, I drink pepsi whenever it’s all there is to have. I prefer light sodas to dark, and Coke to Pepsi.

Why?

Well, it should be obvious.

Disappointing (rated 3 stars)

nobody@allconsuming.net (me-ow.) — Wed, 18 Oct 2006 09:11:33 GMT

Diet Coke

by Coca-Cola

I don’t usually enjoy diet drinks, but diet coke was especially dissappointing because I expect more from Coca Cola. The drink goes flat quickly, has the false sugar taste of diet drinks, and has too many bubbles.

A story about "Mango"

nobody@allconsuming.net (me-ow.) — Wed, 18 Oct 2006 09:10:10 GMT

Mango

Yum yum mangos!
They’re probably my favorite tropical fruit, although pineapple comes pretty darn close. I like them fresh and cut in a special way which is too hard to explain here.

A story about "Law & Order - The First Year"

nobody@allconsuming.net (me-ow.) — Wed, 18 Oct 2006 09:08:17 GMT

Law & Order - The First Year

This show is great at showcasing law and the criminal justice system. The crimes are interesting, realistic, and often have a surprise or two twisted in. But I watch the show for the characters, for the personalities and stories that you piece together after seeing these various characters for a whole season. It’s a great series if only to see the TV technique of different characters and one story per disconnected episode.

A story about "She Wants Revenge"

nobody@allconsuming.net (me-ow.) — Wed, 18 Oct 2006 09:06:24 GMT

She Wants Revenge

by She Wants Revenge

This is one of my favorite albums. It’s dark and moody with harsh beats and sharp lyrics (ok, some of the lyrics suck, but most of them are good). It’s the best combination of New Wave homage and post-punk, with a bit of goth rock thrown in. The songs are catchy, and singalong-able. Most of them are good to listen to when in an angry mood, a motivated mood, or a depressed mood. Depressed as in down and calm and mellow, not as in cutting yourself.

Although I guess this CD would also work for that.

Why I like people who have consumed "A Fever You Can't Sweat Out"

nobody@allconsuming.net (me-ow.) — Wed, 18 Oct 2006 09:03:59 GMT

A Fever You Can't Sweat Out

by Panic! At The Disco

Because they are probably impressionable, rebellious youths like me who like alternative music, but grew up with boy bands and have developed subconscious likings for pop-infused rock music, like Panic!

Go Panic! I saw them live twice. They are wonderful live. They have such energy!

A story about "Irish Soda Bread"

nobody@allconsuming.net (me-ow.) — Wed, 18 Oct 2006 09:02:04 GMT

Irish Soda Bread

by macrina Bakery

I LOVE this bread!
They used to sell it at one of the supermarkets near my house. They put raisins and walnuts in it and the texture outside was floury and chewy but the inside was soft and springy. It tasted wonderful with some sharp cheddar.

Too bad they don’t sell it anymore, and I have no idea where to get some.

A story about the last time I consumed "Hot Fuss"

nobody@allconsuming.net (me-ow.) — Wed, 18 Oct 2006 08:59:01 GMT

Hot Fuss

by The Killers

I was in one of my best friend’s cars, driving around at night. There were 3 of us in the car. We were a little tipsy, but not too much. We had just got back from a day of fun at the minigolf course and restaraunts and just goofing around together. It was late now. We drove around the hills near our town, up and down dark and familiar roads. And all the while, we blasted loud music, including much of this CD, and sang along very loudly and very off key. It was wonderful.

Oh yeah, and The Killers = amazing.

A story about "These Things - EP"

nobody@allconsuming.net (me-ow.) — Wed, 18 Oct 2006 08:56:20 GMT

These Things - EP

by She Wants Revenge

These Things is a great song. But even better, you get the bonus track of “Black Liner Run” which is one of my favorite SWR songs. I think it should’ve been on the album. The beginning drags on a bit long, but that’s something SWR does a lot—give you sequences of drum beats and bits that repeat for seemingly hours before getting to the actual song.

But it’s good. So listen to it!

A story about "With Teeth"

nobody@allconsuming.net (me-ow.) — Wed, 18 Oct 2006 08:54:55 GMT

With Teeth

by Nine Inch Nails

Good, but not great.
I love Nine Inch Nails. I like the hard sound, the direct bite of the lyrics, how the emotions seem to flow from Trent’s mouth directly to your soul.

But this CD wasn’t really all that great. It was a little too produced for me, too mellowed and plasticized and fit for the mainstream. It was still good, but not amazing.

Why I recommend "It's Time"

nobody@allconsuming.net (me-ow.) — Wed, 18 Oct 2006 08:53:26 GMT

It's Time

by Michael Bublé

Michael Buble is one of my favorite singers of modern times. His voice is gorgeous and he sings full of feeling. Every song on the album is a pleasure to listen to. His style is, of course, similar to the old jazz greats and lounge singers, but still very unique.

A story about "Sudoku"

nobody@allconsuming.net (me-ow.) — Mon, 13 Mar 2006 01:53:07 GMT

Sudoku

Fun math game. The harder ones take too long for me to sit through them, but the simpler ones are a nice way to use up time.

A story about "80 Gig iPod"

nobody@allconsuming.net (me-ow.) — Mon, 13 Mar 2006 01:52:27 GMT

80 Gig iPod

by Apple

I love my iPod. There’s not much else to say except that it’s a great music and video player. The integration with iTunes is wonderful as well. The ubiquitous iPod is everywhere for a reason. I have thousands of songs on it, and I’m not even close to using up all the memory. People say that the battery life is a problem, but I’ve found that the fifteen minute quick recharges are good enough for an average day, and it’s not too hard to recharge it at night.

The only drawback, I’d say, is the easy-to-scratch surface. The little scratches are sometimes annoying when watching videos.

Other than that, kudos to Apple for finding their own niche!

A story about "Grey's Anatomy"

nobody@allconsuming.net (me-ow.) — Mon, 13 Mar 2006 01:50:13 GMT

Grey's Anatomy

I’ve only seen a few episodes, at my friends’ urgings. It’s a fun show, sure, but I tend to dislike any show that shows gore (thus all the medical shows and all the crime scene shows are out). It’s funny, but not thatfunny. So overall, it’s just another TV show.

A story about "43 Things"

nobody@allconsuming.net (me-ow.) — Mon, 13 Mar 2006 01:48:27 GMT

43 Things

by The Robot Co-op

43Things is a great website. I love meeting new poeople and watching as others progress with their goals. I think it has helped me work on my goals and determine what they really are. The support network is great, and the invention of cheers was brilliant. I always learn something new from people at 43T because 43Ters have such diverse goals.
