Searching for the best good coffee and nice toilet combo. I had a coffee shop in Omaha called Aromas that was that, plus they has comfy chairs. A great place to kill time.

I've tried lard cooked potato chips and found them to be a bit rich. Old school trans fat Sterzing's had a similar mouthfeel but had a better taste.

People griped when the trans fat ban took effect and Sterzing's fiddled around with various vegetable and seed oils to mixed reviews. Looks like they've been messing around with an oil/tallow mix before going all tallow earlier this year.

Currently working on a stack of paperwork that has a distinct smell to it. It's the same smell as last year's stack and the year before that, etc. I now have a concept of what it smells like. A divorced dad's studio apartment.

Tootsie Roll had two fruit-flavored varieties BTW. "Fruit Chews" and "Frooties." I don't think they had the same flavors between the two. And with "Frooties" you could buy a mega bag of just one flavor, like grape.

New video this week is the full length album version of "Rabbit in Your Headlights" by UNKLE feat Thom Yorke of Radiohead. I reconfigured the original music video to fit the expanded song. www.youtube.com/watch?v=t7t8...
