The Nicole

I present to you “The Nicole,” one of the tastiest sandwiches every created in my own kitchen.

A ciabatta sandwich roll piled high (not really “high,” but piled nevertheless) with salami, provolone cheese, olives, topped off with tomato-basil pesto and baked for about 7 minutes at 350 degrees.

The sandwich is baked open-faced, so if you need to add anything (lettuce, fried eggplant, etc) the sky is the limit.

Happy Birthday Nicole, I hope you enjoy your sammich.

Or, I hope you can at least enjoy the pictures, as the sandwich is gone now, gone to the nether regions of my colon, where it will be rinsed out someday soon.

Also, here is the stove and adjacent cabinets and counter space. If you look close, you can see that bottle of olive oil purchased at the organic farmers market in Sicily, as well as an assortment of IKEA utensils, and don’t forget that coffee maker you left with us.

And here is Montecore and the camera bag, just to remind Corinne to make sure that in the future, the photos she uploads to Flickr should all be relevant to the photo set. In other words, I don’t know why Montecore is hidden among a bunch of sammich pictures.

Happy Birthday to Me

I figured since tomorrow is my 27th birthday, I should spoil myself.

For a mere $75, I had a woman insert a well-lubed plastic tube into my rectum and massage my abdomen for 45 minutes.

Oddly enough, she had a college degree that allowed her to do this.

What I’m talking about, of course, is colon hydrotherapy, otherwise known as a “high colonic.”

It is true that most people carry pounds of unusable and toxic fecal matter in their colons, and no doubt mine is full of some of the nastiest fecal matter around. I thought it was high time I got rid of some of it.

So here is how it goes down:

First, you

Great Movie Quotes

“LOOK AT THAT!  I TOLD YOU TO STOP PLAYING THAT BLOODY GAME!”

Does anybody besides me remember that one?

Search Engine Hilarity – Why are Europeans such assholes?

I don’t think anybody knows the answer to that one.

Search Engine Hilarity – rellano monkey dance

Enough said.

I wonder what this person was searching for.

Why Write?

“Why write posts when I can be busy with other stuff that I really would rather not be doing?”

“That’s what I’m saying.”

Alas, this blog was not able to get into the final round for my various categories.  Apparently, the other blogs I was up against are more relevant and topical.  Whatever that means.

Search Engine Hilarity – Uma Thurman

October 31 – November 1 2007: Total searches for Uma Thurman and Pulp Fiction in which the search yielded results to this blog post are as follows:

“uma thurman pulp fiction” = 22

“Uma Thurman- Pulp Fiction” = 5

“pulp fiction uma thurman” = 4

“pulp fiction uma” = 3

“Uma thurman pulp fiction” = 2

“pulp fiction uma thurman pictures” = 2

“Uma Thurman Pulp Fiction” = 1″pulp fiction + uma thurman” = 1

Why all the Uma Thurman/Pulp Fiction searches? Probably because girls were looking up pictures in order to get ideas for their Mia Wallace costumes.

And November 1st, they were probably looking up the pictures so they can trash the girls who wore Mia Wallace costumes for Halloween.

Update on November 4th @ 1000:  Yesterday up till right now, there were 35 more hits concerning Uma Thurman and Pulp Fiction.  My Halloween theory was wrong.
