Fuck. It is Monday and

Fuck. It is Monday and a shining example of one to boot. It's raining porcupines and platypuses outside and mother nature can't decide if we're in for hot or cold. It's fall peeking into winter and in my book, that should mean cold, crisp, clear air. Make it so. I left the office on the food hunt early because every Houstonian in the downtown area will be in the tunnels for lunch. Joe and I hit up the new Subway under Bank One and I tried one of those cheesy bread buns. Jared is a lyin' bastard. What do they make that stuff out of? Obviously monkey ass. They should line up folks on Fear Factor and make them eat Subway signature buns for a challenge. It was almost as bad as Quizno's. It was surprised I didn't like it since I'm normally a bread fan. ...pause for a moment... Breadfan, open up your mind, open up your purse, Open up your bones, never, never gonna lose it. Breadfan, take it all away, never give an inch, Gotta make a mint, gotta make me a million. Breadfan, you got it wrong, some long time friend's Gonna lose it in the end, who's a fool. Seagull, give it all away, stay a bird, stay a man, Stay a ghost, stay what you wanna be. Loser, give it all away, never stay with the winner, With the man with all the filthy money. Come on, keep it on the side, with a ride on a record, On the top if you're gonna be a bad boy. Breadfan, you got it wrong, some long time friend's Gonna lose it in the end, who's a fool. Seagull, give it all away, stay a bird, stay a man, Stay a ghost, stay what you wanna be. Breadfan, open up your mind, open up your purse, Open up your bones, never, never gonna lose it. Breadfan, take it all away, never give an inch, Gotta make a mint, gotta make me a million. Breadfan, you got it wrong, some long time friend's Gonna lose it in the end, who's a fool. Seagull, give it all away, stay a bird, stay a man, Stay a ghost, stay what you wanna be. ...ok, back to the regularly scheduled program... I spend a long stretch of time at Fry's yesterday. Damniny I love that store. I just don't like the crowd. I picked out a few Christmas gifts. I mentally masturbated in front of a dual 2GHz PowerMac G5. Holy fuck. Daddy likes. I had to leave shortly there after to compose myself. Last night, while EL was making some cool gifts for her peops, I was getting a print press ready for an order. It's the first time I've ever tries anything like this, but hey... why not? I am uber-ignorant when it comes to color calibration and working in the colorspace associated with inks. Me dumb. I'm all kinds of hungry for Photoshop CS. In case anyone wanted to splurge on a Christmas gift for lil' ole me... Photoshop CS is the pimp platform of choice. Actually, I have a laundry list of items on my "wish list"... a Gitzo G2227 Explorer tripod legs, a Kirk BH-3 panning ball head, a Sandisk Extreme 1GB compact flash, the Canon Zoom Telephoto EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS USM Autofocus Lens or the Canon Zoom Telephoto EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM Autofocus Lens (or about 5 others on my list), etc. I'd settle for a winning Lotto ticket actually. Oh shit. Is lunch over already?

Dude, don’t be hatin’ on Quiznos.  That’s a staple meal for me.  The Spicy Monterey Club with Batch 81 pepper sauce.  I have that one maybe five times a week these days.  I’ve since switched from the usual wheat to the kinda/sorta foccacia style bread used on the chicken carbonara sandwich.

The one Schlotzkis LA was sportin’ closed a couple years ago when they revamped Westwood and deemed it not upscale enough (I’m guessing).

I used to eat at Subway all the time but when I stopped getting oil+vineger on my sandwiches I discovered they were all fairly tasteless.  For variety I’ll get a Togos tuna on hearty white every once in a while. 

My only complaint against Quiznos is, for a friggin’ sandwich it’s pretty darned expensive.

no hate really, just a string of bad experiences. there is no benefit of the doubt left to offer those fucks. mebbie i’ll try one of your “Spicy Monterey Club with Batch 81 pepper sauce” sammiches just because i luv ya so much, but i fully expect it will suck based on statistics. i needs me some low fat alternative to all this mexican food i’m jammin’ down my throat like a starvin’ marvin… time to slim.

i came here to see pictures of tiny life and plant life and what i see is your butchering of breads :)

Yeah, I’m an ethnic food only so often guy now.  I think the only folks that can stay tiny and skinny eating Chinese, Thai (especially Thai), Indian or Mexican food are their respective peoples.  White boys be gettin’ fat on that stuff.

I did Atkins for a while and it worked great.  Problem is I didn’t have the discipline to move up through their carb progression.  Almost nobody actually has a good idea what this diet really is and it’s not what the collective pop culture thinks (entirely).  Still, I don’t want to have to do math for every meal, unless it’s to figure out the tip.

Something you might want to look into to give your metabolism a little boost is DHEA-25.  I take it as a daily supplement.  I’m also taking Xenadrine FX which is an ephedra free (real important) pre-meal metabo-booster. 

Science dude!  Then I try to do heavy bag a couple times a week and light weights.  Hopefully now that I’m off Pan I can get back on a regular workout program again.  But the Xenadrine, coupled with semi-sensible eating, kept me from spreading out when I didn’t have the energy to do regular workouts.

Ode to Budgie - word!

And the best sandwiches are either from Eatzi’s or Central Market.

If you are a bread fan, you must try Panera.  They have locations in Houston.  Very yummy.  Lewis Black on the Daily Show: “The Atkins diet tells us that bread is bad.  Bread is evil.  So apparently, we’ve been doing it wrong SINCE THE DAWN OF CIVILIZATION!”
