Thoughts

This category is earning it's stripes today. Here are a jumble of the random thoughts I have had roughly over the past 12-24 hours. There, obviously were more, but these are the ones I remember. Sure I could have broken them apart and made separate posts for each one, but that would have been too much unnecessary work. Get over it.

Highlights:
Seeing Bob Seger on the Smooch Cam. (No need for you to read any more into that than it was cool to see a local celeb part take in a fun thing during a timeout.)

Deciding that I feel it is more of a duty than a desire to name my first born child Stromile. Yes, regardless of gender. What a sweet name! (Sure if it's a boy and he turns out to have 4 foot long arms and end up making millions in the NBA, I would not complain. I'll love him either way...probably.)

Lowlights:
Wendys has removed the Wild Mountain Chicken Sammich from their menu. (Though I just had the regular spicy sandwich and it was still great.)

For those of you who have seen me recently, I had that mop chopped off. I finally got my haircut. I think it had been something like 4 months since my last. "I never knew your hair was so curly." -Ken T. Barber. Let me ask you this, Ken...if that is your real name...You've cut my hair almost my entire life, if you've not seen it that curly, who do you think would have? If it had ever been long enough to be this curly in the past YOU would have cut it!!!

Sidelights:
How cool would it be to have a spot on whatever board it is that is responsible for rating movies. Think about it, you get to see every movie before it comes out. Months before it comes out. All you have to do after you watch it is say if you think there was too much swearing. I think I'm in the wrong business. (It would do wonders for movie review blog traffic.)

A sidelight to refer to lowlight #1. I would venture a guess that the Wild Mountain Chicken Sandwich was a popular endeavor for the good people at Wendys, though it is now gone. Here is my suggestion for a new treat: Spicy Chicken Nuggets. Whenever it was that Wendys changed their breaded chicken, both the regular and the spicy, they made the right change. Both are significantly improved. The new spicy is just right. Take that and cross-breed it with the 5-piece nuggets and I think we have a cash crop. Make it a limited time dealy. No need to roll it out permanently. Pilot test it, but let me in. Sure, I may not be the first to come up with this, may I say, ingenious idea, but I had it none the less.

I had to add one more. It was nice to see that the Sun Messengers cleaned up their act. Apparently I was not the only one who was surprised at their use of the word "retarded" over the loud speakers at Pistons games. Either they read privatjokr.com....(It could happen!)....or someone actually complained. Last night at the game they obviously played the same songs as they do every night. When "Let's Get it Started" came on, they played the whole thing clean.
