Remember to eat your daily corn!

We had a coupon for a free RoastBurger if you buy a small drink and fries at full price.  I chose the Bacon Cheddar RoastBurger and went back to my office.  Upon opening the bag, i saw that the RoastBurger was contained in a box bearing a striking resemblance to a Big Mac container, but i liked the look of it:

I opened the box, and found a sad-looking sandwich, but this is not a fault.  Pretty much all burgers look crappy compared to the marketing images of them.  Also note that i asked for no tomato or onion, which is most of the “burger-like” toppings:

So, i took a bite.  Long story short, it wasn’t bad.  The roast beef wasn’t very warm, so the cheese wasn’t nearly as melted as it would have been on a real burger.  Also, there were no normal condiments on it, like ketchup, mayonaise, and mustard.  I know i could have put these on myself, but real burgers normally come with them by default.  Here’s a cross-section of it:

In the end, it just made me want a Beef ‘n Cheddar.  Nice try Arby’s.  I know you’re trying to be “hip”, but it’s just not working.  I still love you, though!  I’ll keep going to Arby’s no matter what.

Since we are going to be separated this thanksgiving, we decided to have our own early thanksgiving, a ghetto thanksgiving. In these harsh economic times, who could want anything else? And, it tasted so good we have declared it a rival to “real” thanksgiving. Cheap(er), economical, and delicious (maybe not the healthiest, though).

Here’s the spread:

• Boxed Turkey (I personally didn’t eat any of this)
• Canned Stuffing
• Green Bean Cassarole made from cans of green beans and other ingredients (canned cream of mushroom and onions)
• Mashed potatoes and gravy (packets)
• Rolls
• …AND cranberry sauce! Yayy!
• There is also pumpkin pie, but there was no way we could eat it tonight. It will have to wait until tomorrow.

Kelly bought The Crayons CD, The Haunted Mansion CD from Disney (that is hard to get, she had to go to Disney to get it), Four Finger Music: The Bluegrass Tribute to th eMusic Made Famous by The Simpsons, and The Willy Wonka soundtrack. She also got Punk Goes Crunk, where punk artists do rap songs.

Theatre:
We saw a playing of The Pillowman, starring Josh Geoghagan! It was excellent!

Games:
Hotel Dusk: A great game set in the very early 80′s with an awesome detective-sounding soundtrack, about an ex-detective searching for his lost partner, whom he himself shot. Is that ex-partner dead? What about a hotel? Does the detective solve the mystery? Is it happy-ever-after at the end? FIND OUT! Play it, fools. (Or ask me, I will tell you everything :P)

NXE (New Xbox Experience)

Movies:
Shock Treatment: It blows, but has it’s moments. The song “Shock Treatment” ruleszorz.

Zach’s Disappointment of the week:
Ubuntu:
Why? Ever since the update to version 8.10, his system has a few random sound glitches. He also experiences CD-ejecting failure on his CD/DVD drive, which sometimes results in the ripping of the same CD for hours at a time.

• Cooking (soon to be a separate site?):
  Shortbread
  Plums for recipe
• Jacob’s Pin Trading: He got a random muppets pin pack at Disney, and traded a Ralph (he got a pack of two Ralphs).
• Loldogs, similar to icanhascheesburger but for dogs. So funny! Also, check out totallylookslike.com for a good time. OH! Also check out the Fail Blog
• Jacob reviews an HTC app (it’s related to battery life).

Kelly’s book corner:
Bonk (By Mary Roach, author of Stiff)
Bell at Sealey Head
