An Ode to Grocery Store Fowl

Oh, Oh, Jenny-O
Your gobbler is simply the best
A cure for even the most manically depressed
At 10, 12 or even 20
Your poundage is to be revered
A pardon from Pawlenty
Hunger to have appeared
Mass riots from your absence
Causes concern for the innocents
Tofurkey is just as good, they say
But it's to hell for PETA one day
Ended not by sword, gun, or obese overjoyed
It's a baster that shall be employed
Oh, Oh, Jenny-O

Chili Doritos, Twizzlers, and Mountain Dew

An American meal like no other. I am unsure if it was Chili Doritos or Chili Fritos, but I do know that it started with Chili (not all that positive about the Chili part either, but it's what I'm going with) and ended in ritos. The favorite American meal of the one and only Gareth Campesinos. At least that's what he told us. And I believe him, because he's Welsh and I am very trusting of the Welsh. After all, it's because of Catherine Zeta-Jones that I use T-Mobile. Any other nationality and I would be like everyone else and have an iPhone and I would be playing Words with Friends with my real life friends and my new cell phone game friends.

Opening for Los Campesinos! was Cymbals Eat Guitars, who are apparently the Indie flavor of the month and I must say it's deserving and they love the bass. At one point, I thought I was going to develop heart arryhthmia it was so bone rattling. I liked it.

The 8 piece band from Cardiff plays with enough energy to power a keychain flashlight for an hour or so, maybe one of those laser pointers for 15 minutes. Just long enough to fatigue an obese cat trying to catch the magic dot. My goal is to be complimentary here, but I'm not an engineer, so I have no idea how much energy is required to power anything. However, I do know that I hate watch batteries and I strongly like Los Campesinos! and you should too.

Taking the Internet by Storm.

Inaugural post. I enjoy writing, so this is an attempt to make me do it everyday or at least every other day. Thus far the name of this blog has no meaning, other than I like Lo Mein and usually order it by the quart.

Right now, I'm putting off going to Home Depot to acquire the necessary tools to perform yard work with. Instead, I am watching Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li. It is really bad and has probably made its crappy way into the top 10 worst movies I have ever "watched" list. I put watch in quotes because I'm not paying a ton of attention.

Anyway, I'm going to see Los Campesinos! tonight and it is assuredly going to be the best part of my weekend. Wow, this movie is so bad. I'll probably write about the show later, so tune in. It will eventually be worth it.
