As I’m sure you know by now, I love bacon. I also like vodka. That’s why I was excited to see bacon flavored vodka!

Thanks to Brian R. for sending me this link. I would like to add that I don’t go out of my way searching for bacon flavored items. All of these bacon themed things are usually passed on to me by my friends and family. I’m not sure what started this bacon craze but I certainly can’t complain. Well I guess I can complain about those horrible bacon mints I received, those were just plain wrong.

Now I just need to find a place I can buy some of this delicious vodka.

Sorry Purple, but my eyes have spotted a new color and I’m liking how it looks.

Here’s a song/video on Youtube that was passed along to me. I liked it so much, I had to share. I’ll be playing this one on Saint Patrick’s Day for sure…

This Super Bowl Sunday between the Patriots and the Giants will be a lot of fun to watch.

In case you’re looking for a way to enhance Super Bowl Sunday, I recommend you try out my Super Bowl Bingo game.

Many New Englanders will indeed have an added interest in Super Bowl XLII Sunday between the Patriots and the Giants. They’ll be rooting for their ‘’boxes.'’

In the most common variation of the pool, each box holder is assigned a number between 0-9 for each team. If the number in the box matches the last digit in the score at the end of each quarter, that box holder wins. Here’s how the first 40 Super Bowls have paid out:

In the Journal News this Sunday, I was displayed in a picture on the front page of the business section.

Woohoo!

I had no idea that I was going to have a picture taken of me that day. I may have worn something else like my favorite Hawaiian shirt. Luckily I happened to get a haircut at lunch that day because my hair had gotten quite long.

They also took pictures of us playing Guitar Hero in the fun room but they decided not to print those. Too bad because Cindy and I totally rocked out.

If you’d like to read the full article, I’ve archived the online copy in case the Journal News doesn’t keep a copy up forever. And being the geek I am, I also have a digital scan of the first page and follow-up page to protect against aging

And if you haven’t heard about Zwinky.com yet, I recommend you check it out. I’m very proud of what we’ve built and there’s so much more we can do it’s exciting.

While looking through my vast collection of pictures the other day and I stumbled upon one that I had to share.

In April of 2006, 14 friends got together to throw a surprise birthday dinner for our friend Todd. We went to this great (and expensive) restaurant in NYC called Alta. Their menu is certainly unique and they offer dishes you won’t find anywhere else.

What did we order? Everything on the menu. Twice.

Yup, we got the whole shebang, 2 of them.

Waiters began bringing out food as soon as we had poured wine into our glasses. Dish after dish continued to arrive.

We developed a border system where one end of the table was the northern territory and one was the southern tip. Trade agreements began forming. Popular dishes went fast only to be replaced by the next dish coming out of the kitchen.

The waiters would drop one of each dish off at each end, tell one person what it was and venture back into the kitchen to fetch some more. It was that person’s job to communicate what the food was. No one could remember the name, only parts of it, but it didn’t matter. What mattered was how much the person before you liked it.

Some dishes were too scary looking and were simply passed around until a brave soul tried a sample. Then of course others would have to indulge themselves.

I had a great time and I got to sample some very interesting foods. If you ever get a chance to order everything on the menu, I highly recommend it.

Of course, this isn’t the first time I’ve ordered mass quantities of food. There was that time at Taco Bell that I asked for the entire yellow menu. But that’s a story for another time
