It really only works on a back blackground though. Oh hell. Looks like some site design ahead.

I’ve been working out a bit, in the morning, before heading off to work. They say you should “bracket” your work out with protein, and of course, since it’s the morning and I’m in a rush, I usally chug a protein shake of some sort, maybe munch some almonds.
What I wish was that I had about seventeen extra minutes to hammer down one of these babies, with maybe an egg on the side and some rye toast. That’s protein!
Neat sounding happy hour, plus it is named after a very famous kind of red wine that I’ll have to write about when I perform the Barolo Poached steak from Jamie Oliver some day.
I’m going to see if I can get to Barolo for its happy hour some day.
This is so great. Imagine the following story, if you will:
So, it’s 3PM and you’re sitting in front of your favorite coffee shop, talking to a friend about his new web page. Next thing you know, you’re standing next to a homeless guy who’s stumbled up.
“Hey buddy,” he whispers, “I’ve got about sixty pounds of T-bones in this backpack.” WHAT!?
He’s offered you the whole thing for thirty bucks. What a deal! But you’ve only got a twenty on ya.
Most of your bastard friends had wandered off at this point, as this fella seemed “sketchy”. And even the couple that stayed wouldn’t lend you the cash! But you just couldn’t let this go by. So you bought one of his steaks for three bucks. It’s a T-bone, probably cost around eight bucks in the store, and it will taste great with the salad you’re going to make.
Now, the thing is your friends are all saying, “What are you doing!? I wouldn’t eat that!” Which you don’t get. It’s sealed, dated today, he kept them on ice, (yes, in his bag,) and it’ll be cooked. What’s the big deal, bitch?
I’ll tell you what the big deal is, bitch! You’re not armed with the latest amazing bacteriological detection technology, the SensorFresh Q, because it’s only 2001 and it hasn’t even been invented yet!!!
I had to do something with this because it’s very current. And it is one of those canonical Days that the internet has basically created; a holiday, thought up and popularized purely through “word of mouth” by people typing at one another on computers.
Tomorrow, March 14th, is Steak and a Bl*wJ*b Day. I think they’ve had this for two years now. However, if you read through the blogger snippets referencing the thing on Technorati, you realize that basically anyone writing about it is only just hearing about it.
I really love the sassy and sensual writeup at
FTLOC&C (site might offend yer mom). Sounds like she had a bit of a struggle with the steaks, but I’ve gotta give her props for trying!
