I am a part time nerd, part time chef and full time whiner. Did I type whiner? I meant winner...no wait, I whine a lot. I've worked in High Tech and Television and a few places in between. I've eaten fire roasted snakes and hand fulls of peeps (not in the same sitting of course). I'd like to share my experiences, so read on.

So many people to thank....

*SPOILERS BELOW*
So much has happened the last week, I don't where to begin and who to thank.

First, I'd like to thank the BBC for this awesome headline today:
'Two dead' in fresh Turkey blast. My first thought, was...dear god, they finally did it, they blew up a turkey and it killed people. A vision of giblets and feathers and death, oh wait it was about a terrible even in the middle east. Damn.

Next, I'd like to thank the director of Snakes on a Plane and subsequent Music Video. I saw this film this weekend. I went into it thinking, Ok, it is what is right? A movie with Sammy Jackson swearing and fighting snakes. This movie lived up to my vision and I loved it! I was laughing my ass off half the time and the other half being slightly surprised. Complaints, The dog didn't die first. Come on, the little yapper dog should have been first to go. You will love this film if you have any funny bone in you at all.

I'd also like to thank Keith Olbermann for his good reports he does. Here's an older report he did that I caught on YouTube, it's a report linking all the bad press for the bush administration to terror alerts.

Finally, the hippy people at the renaissance festival in SF this last weekend. Hippies are great and all, they encourage things like sustainable food sources and henna tattoos of random suns with faces. But I laughed out loud when I say you sorta half-assed dressed up for the faire. Here's why, a hippy is just a stones throw from a Renaissance actor. You got the crappy handmade handmedown smelly cloths/dresses and boots. But instead of riding a horse, you have a bike. Instead of a loot, you have a cell phone with a crosby stills and nash ringtone. You shouldn't get 2 festivals I say. Hippys, stay out of my 15$ admission medieval England!
