Briefly
March 12th, 2009 by Josh
No, this isn’t a post about underwear… I’m too lazy to write full-blown blog entries, so I’m just posting some brief snippets of things that I find interesting right now.
- Tomorrow is Friday the 13th, the second one in a row.
- The day after is Pi Day! I plan to celebrate by eating pie. Maybe I’ll even calculate the circumference and area of the pie before I eat it! What are your plans?
- I haven’t really seen Peanut Butter Twix–which was one of my favorites–in a long time. Apparently they were discontinued for awhile, but were brought back briefly and then were discontinued again. Anyway, I was excited to see a commercial for Twix PB. This candy is like Peanut Butter Twix, but with a chocolate cookie part instead of the vanilla cookie in the original. It appears that Twix PB was introduced in 2007, yet I don’t remember ever seeing one. What’s up with that? Of course this “new” candy is getting mixed reviews, so I’ll have to try to find one to taste it for myself.
- The Sears Tower is going to be renamed. The fuck? Hell no, we won’t go (along with that bullshit)! OK so Sears hasn’t had any offices in the building for a long time, and lost naming rights a few years ago. I don’t care. I don’t even associate the Tower with the stupid stores. The Sears Tower is an icon. You don’t rename a mother-fucking icon (nor paint it silver)! I will not call it by its new name, Willis Tower. The name was given away to a British insurance company who will be occupying a relatively small amount of space in the building (though it will be the largest new tenant since 2001). I guess management really is desperate for tenants.
- I’m sick of fucking winter weather!
Thank you, that is all.
