Three countries, three guitars (well, four)

I’ve always liked guitars, but I’ve never learned how to play one. I think I will though. In the meantime, check out how guitars have been used all over:

Don’t mess with Jesse…unless you’re wearing a cup.

Oh Jesse Jackson…later he had this to say:

“For any harm or hurt that this hot-mic conversation may have caused, I apologize. My support for Sen. Obama’s campaign is wide, deep and unequivocal.”

Yeah, okay, Jesse. We believe you.

Legends of Batman!

This girl found a bat in her bra…after leaving it there for a few hours thinking it was her cell phone ringer…

Bat in my bra!

Grilling

So I picked up the Aroma dual-flip griddle/grill about a week ago and it worked great! The reviews on Amazon kinda confuse me, since I’m not foreseeing any trouble and the size is perfect for me and the few friends I actually cook with. And…long heating time? If I’m grilling, I’m not expecting it to be fast anyway.

Anyhow, looks like Matt and I are going to try another grilling excursion tonight, but until then, this is what happened last week:

Nom Nom Nom

The meats included shrimp, chicken, and squid (which I cleaned myself!). I marinated the chicken and shrimp in a basic Vietnamese lemon grass marinade, while I just put a bit of salt and lime on the squid. Then we wrapped everything with rice noodles in rice paper as we ate. So yummy!

I’m gonna try bulgogi-style beef tonight, but sticking with the same basic idea. Wish me luck!

Look what Diddy did

So, a few days ago, I went to Burger King and I discovered something hilariously awesome. Check out this cup:

Nothing out of the ordinary right? It’s a pretty nice looking cup with some decent colors. Certainly nothing to write a blog post about. Until you turn it around:

Look down there at the bottom. That’s the Sean John signature! Here’s a close-up:

That’s right. Apparently, Puffy’s taken to designing fast food cups. Which is simultaneously hilarious and horrible. I went to Belk the other day and the Sean John Collection was taken down. I couldn’t get my quick Diddy-style fix. And it’s all because he’s too busy designing fast food cups?!

Well, they better not stop making Sean John “Unforgivable” cologne. That’s all I have to say.
