Chester Cheetah Sent Me the Coolest Thank You Note Ever

Not sure how anyone wouldn’t enjoy eating Cheetos. They were part of my all-time favorite sandwich in college. I’ll have to post a full-on recipe one of these days but when you’re in a dorm with limited resources, you improvise. So I’d take two pieces of Wonder Bread, slap on loads of Philadelphia cream cheese and then pour a pile of Cheetos on top. Close the sandwich and dive in! Go ahead and try it …

Yeah, I’m in the Dog Haus Again

I’m currently out in L.A. again. Pasadena to be exact. The other day we stopped to eat at an awesome place called the Dog Haus. I’m a big fan of hot dogs and this place is like a Wiener Nirvana.

I Want to Sink My Teeth Into a Bottle of Iron Maiden’s New Trooper Ale

I’ve been an Iron Maiden fan ever since high school. Seventh Son of a Seventh Son had just come out and the album cover totally caught my eye. I picked it up and was sucked right in. I quickly went out and bought up the previous few albums: Somewhere in Time, Piece of Mind and Number of the Beast for starters. I can’t tell you how many lawns I mowed in the ’80s, while listening …
