Muffin Study

Fortunately I have the opportunity to participate in another fiber consuming study to the tune of nearly $400. And all I have to do is eat a muffin, then sit for three hours and record my hunger level. Three hours is a lot of time to sit, so I usually read the paper. Enter the excuse me flag, from this morning's Star Tribune article on germs:

The Excuse Me flag is a little yellow banner mounted on a lightweight pole, which is attached to one's waist via a belt and swings back and forth in front of the wearer during walking. The yellow flag reads "Excuse Me".

"It generates a cubic yard of free walking space between you and a sneezer," Beck, a former New Yorker, said from her home in Delaware. "It makes it so you don't have to touch anybody or talk to anybody in New York."

With a product description as insane and contact-o-phobic as that, how can you not google the product and have a look? Don't worry I'll save you the time: Yowza! If i was still compiling stupid lists this would definately make the top 10.

Remember when we were going to buy paintball guns for the fising trip, but they were too expensive/required too much safety equipment/maybe looked a little too realistic to be pointing at eachother in the middle of a lake? Problem Solved! On second thought, maybe that was just me. I knew blowguns would be perfect the minute I saw the one Paul brought home.

Went to Wirth on Thursday, it must've sprinkled a bit in the morning, as the bikepath was quite wet. The trail was just on the tacky side of perfect. Super duper fast, but not too wet to ride. The old (read: challenging) sections were hella greasy though.

New favorite show: Rob and Big on MTV. it's replaced Maury, and it aint even that trashy! I mean, you can only hear "you are not the father" so many times. But anyway, finally a reality show that embraces fallacy and is actually fun to watch. I think it's secretly a jab at the rest of mtvs existance. How could it be entertaining if it wasn't? At least the characters are entertaining and not a bunch of over dramatic fucking crybabys like every other mtv show.

i almost forgot. Yesterday me and tim from the bike shop towed dave's euro van to the repair shop with the extra cycle and tim's karate monkey. Pictures to follow.

Keep it real. If you lose the TV remote look in your coat hood.
