Mountain Dew Council of Elders Exiles Non-Radical Teen
May 25, 2008
From their hidden sanctuary high atop Mount Dew, the Mountain Dew Council Of Elders formally passed judgment on area teen Brian Ruderman yesterday, unanimously ruling him “not radical” and sentencing him to eternal banishment from the Extreme Network.
“To you, Brian Ruderman, we have said in the past, Do the Dew,” Mountain Dew Highfather Snow-boardus the Totally Radical said as the final verdict was delivered. “But from this day forth say we it no longer, saying to ye instead, Brian Ruderman, go forth from this place, leave us, and Do the Dew no more.” ..continue..
My favorite ‘The Onion’ article, good to see their older stuff being put back on the site.

Breastfeeding…at 8.

Many people would find this a bit strange, but I don’t know. The thing is most of us all drink milk, cow milk. Cow milk that is really produced for baby cows. So at 8 years of age it is socially acceptable to drink cows milk, but not human milk? Maybe it is because her daughter gets it right from the source. Would it be any more acceptable if mom pumped the milk and stored it in a container in the frig?
I have wondered why there hasn’t been a market for human milk. Wouldn’t you rather drink milk meant for your species rather than a cow? I guess that would never happen with the amount of milk that is produced along with the impossibility of controlling the womens behavior and diet that would affect the quality of milk.
There are actually human milk banks, one being The Human Milk Banking Association of North America. Kinda like the blood bank, women donate their milk for infants that require it, but for whatever reason can not get the milk from their mother. So its there for those that need it.

McDonalds, scew you
March 10, 2008

McDonalds use to be about fast food fast. Now apparently it is about fast food with slow and annoying service. While I worked at McDonalds for 6 plus years and always enjoyed the food, I am now done with McDonalds. I am annoyed with the service and the change in procedures, no more McDonalds for me, at least from the restaurant in Littlestown, PA.
Back when I was in high school I worked at McDonalds, flipping burgers. Back when cooking burgers were actually flipped. A few months into my stint at grill the clamshells were introduced. The small burgers cooked in roughly 40 seconds. I remember cooking and having assembled 12 ‘regs’ or regular hamburgers in a little over a minute.
There was a point where I was looking at McDonalds as a career. Working with one of the shift managers I learned many of the policies and procedures. I could tell you how many small fries in a case of French Fries. Also temperatures and cook times of various food products. I was pretty gung-ho about the whole thing. But it didn’t happen, upper management (I worked at a franchise store) didn’t think that I was right for it. They thought I was going to be doing bigger and better things. I ended up in the IT field which probably worked out better for me.
When I started working at McDonalds I was flipping burgers and making McDLTs, remember them? When I left I was doing staging and making fajitas, along with the rest of the menu. Staging was basically precooking the meat, it was kept warm and moist in staging cabinets. The grill procedures had really changed in those years.

I made this tonight, it was pretty decent and I have plenty to take in to work this week. Although I did screw up the recipe a bit. Didn’t look at my spaghetti package until after I was done, was more then twice then what the recipe called for. Not sure if I got to 2 cups of chicken either, but it still was decent.
