Cheese Friday™ : Don't eat Cheese?

Mozzarella Cheese (that stuff on your pizza) made in Italy may contain dioxins. South Korea and Japan have already banned Mozzarella imports. The EU is demanding answers and Italy is definitely feeling the heat.

EU officials are concerned that southern Italy's Mafia-linked rubbish disposal crisis, which has left thousands of tons of waste uncollected or dumped in illegal landfill sites, has led to the contamination of water buffalo herds, which produce the best milk for mozzarella.

Last week, Italian environmental officials placed 66 buffalo herds in quarantine due to unusually high levels of toxic dioxin chemicals.

Sorry for the poor video quality. It was the only clip of the show I could find on YouTube.

My Company Is Famous (aka Stupid)

Well, it's really my previous company since our group has been moved around to so many different departments in the last 8 years. But what is my company famous for you might ask? Oh, nothing special, just having one of the top 10 largets data breaches in the last 8 years. You can view the story here via boingboing.net or by clicking the image above.

My company is the one on the bottom right with the July 3, 2007 breach.

Home Sweet Home

I'm back. After 3 days of moving boxes, 2 days chasing around a 2 1/2
year old, and driving approximately 1200 miles i am back home and
exhausted. Every part of my body is sore and I kinds feel like the
picture below.

The truck is here... Sort of.

We got the call this morning that the truck was an hour away. We then
got the call that the truck broke down and was stuck in the Circuit
City parking lot. That Circuit City happens to be right next to the
Babies R' Us that Kristi and I just went to. You can see her reaction
below.

Cool Music Video. Watch It.

Check out this music video that made entirely of homages to old TV bumpers. The song is pretty good too.

Tag, I'm it.

I have been tagged by Ms. Cake to confess seven strange facts about myself. Since she seems really nice I'll comply.

But know this, you may never look at me the same way again. (said in scary announcer voice)
Dah dum dum! (music builds to a crescendo)

I'm trying to build up the suspense. Get ready to be underwhelmed.

The rules are as follows:
1. Link to the person who tagged you
2. Post the rules on your blog.
3. Share seven random and/or weird facts about yourself on your blog.
4. Tag seven random people at the end of your post, and include links to their blogs.
5. Leave a comment on their blogs so that they know they have been tagged.

I'm only going to follow rules 1, 2, & 3 (see number 4 below).
Here they are in no particular order:

1. I like The Carpenters. Not in a ironic kitschy way, but in a genuine way. When I listen to some of their songs it takes me back to my childhood. When home was always a safe and warm place. And no, I'm not gay.

2. I don't eat fruit. "Not even _____?" you may ask. No, not even ____ .
It's a mental disorder, probably one of many, I guess. Even without fruit I'm a fairly healthy person.

3. I like Broccoli. I sometimes pretend I'm a giant eating trees while the imaginary villagers are scurrying around asking for mercy. My kids think it's funny, at least for now.

4. I don't like being "told" to do something. I think it's my inner juvenile delinquent trying to get out.

5. I like sex. I know, strange huh? My wife was even more shocked than you.

6. I don't like when people call me boss, chief, gov'ner, captain or anything else of the sort.
Just don't. Okay boss?

7. I don't always eat Cheese on Friday. Shhh, don't tell anyone. It'll be our little secret.

Civilization comes to Littleton

Happy Birthday, Thane!!!

We ventured out in the cold and took Thane to Chili's for his birthday. They gave him a free birthday shot and he drank it like a wuss. I guess thats what happens when you turn 35.

Colder than a witches... Welcome to the Tomlinson Compound.

We made it to Littleton, CO. I've never driven in snow that bad before. I was very tense the entire time but Shawn kept me from killing us and Abby. It's really cold and snowy and my socks
are wet after unloading the cars. The house is huge and really nice. The neighbor was nice enough to snow plow the sidewalk for us. I'm excited to sleep somewhere other than Motel 6 even if its on the floor.

Welcome to Colorful Colorado.

We made it across the Colorado state line. We were welcomed with snow
and Sonic Burger. All of our cars are covered with ice. So was
Kristi's ass when she sat on Avery's apple slush.

New Mexico: Blurrier than old Mexico

Today's numbers:

2 Motel 6's I've been in
3 states I've walked Abby the dog
675 miles driven
1,247 times Keeta escaped from the back of the car

Nappy Time

Shawn fails horribly at doing either of the jobs he's actually able to
do on this trip. Oh well, at least he's amusing.

Mmmmmm Cracker Barrel

We stopped for lunch at the Cracker Barrel in Flagstaff, Arizona. I
had heard of Cracker Barrel before but never been there. French toast,
scrambled eggs and bacon. It was ok, nothing special. From her we
pushon to Gallup, New Mexico.

Farewell Barstow

We left the Motel 6 in Barstow this morning around 8am. Word of
advice: don't stay at the Motel 6 in Barstow.

Shawn is worthless...

For anything other than changing CDs or keeping people awake on the
road. His ankle is sprained so he can't drive or help with luggage. If
we get caught in a snow drift we are eating him first.
