Like a Banshee

Tonight I decided that the coolest thing to say after anything is "like a banshee." I didn't invent this phrase but I'm taking it over as my own. For example, you go up to someone and say "It's hot like a banshee," or "I'm going to blog like a banshee." Really I have no idea what banshees are apart from their role in Darby O'Gill and the Little People but now I love banshees like a banshee.

A Shell of My Former Self

Well, it's now July 13 and this is all I have left of my Easter candy. And believe me, I've been eating candy every day since Easter. I think I might shed a tear or two as I bite into my last, luscious, sugary Cadbury Cream Egg, but I will be consoled by the fact that Easter is only 8 months away and now I have a better idea of how much candy I'll have to buy to make it through the entire next year with candy.

Ch-ch-ch-chia!!!

I don't have anything to blog about. However, in the spirit of bloginess (blogitude? blogilarity?) I am merely blogging about an idea for a future blog that I had today. Ok. So, my plan is to buy a chia pet off the internet...


...and then shave my face at the same time as I prepare the chia pet and then see which grows faster, my facial hair or the chia pet. I would keep an ongoing blog with comparative pictures. So, yeah...that's what I've got.

Now I'm Really Mad

In case you haven't heard the latest news, 3 people including one top executive were arrested for trying to steal the secret recipe for Coca-Cola. Thankfully they were caught before any severe damage was done. If ever the death penalty was in needed...

In a happier side story, the way Coke found out that their secrets had been stolen was that Pepsi alerted them after having been approached by the criminals who were trying to sell them the secret. I have gained a little more respect for Pepsi after hearing that, even though I wouldn't be surprised if Pepsi came out with a new cola product in the next few months.
