08/30/2005: Tuesday Update?!

I’m getting pretty tired of seeing the blog updated only during the weekends, so I can imagine how some of you might feel. So look! Tuesday update! Don’t really have much to say, but…TUESDAY UPDATE! Oh yeah, I updated the Kool-Aid Section with a shortie on Kool-Aid Kool Pumps, a Sharkleberry Fin-flavored treat offered at Burger King restaurants in 1991. TUESDAY UPDATE!

I hate to be a redundant broken broken record record, but I’m reallllly getting psyched for the Halloween season. I do this to myself every year. Trust me, it’s a lot different when your holiday seasons are spent writing about holiday seasons everyday. I’m toying with the idea of doing the Halloween Countdown every other day this year, but I hate to break tradition like that. We’ll see how it goes. Actually, this is a good question to ask — which would you prefer? Updates every other day, or updates on every weekday with the weekends off? Perhaps the latter makes the most sense. It would be ideal for me to have Sats and Suns to write the following week’s worth of entries. It’s a lot to do in a weekend, but I’d rather have the extra time and have them come out the way I’d like than write them all when I get home from work. We’ll see. I may still end up doing them everyday, because in my mind, that’s the tradition and it should stay. Especially because I’ve already collected better loot for this year’s extravaganza than the past two years combined.

Also on that note, I may need a good hand to help out with a few graphics for this year’s Countdown. Nothing too fancy, but if you’ve got serious skills, send me an e-mail. You’ll need to be able to do stuff as funky as what’s on the main page of the site. Haven’t thought about what this would pay. Not much. Consider it a labor of love.

Surrrrvey Sez! If you could only have one candy bar for the rest of your life, what would it be? I’m going with Snickers.

Poop. Weak comedy is always weaker when your underscores work improperly.

"Menah Menah" was on a Muppet Show record/tape/CD, and Statler and Waldorf gave a much better commentary at the end:

Statler: "That was WONDERFUL!"
Waldorf: "That was FANTASTIC!"
Statler: "That was GREAT!"
Waldorf: "It was pretty fine."
Statler: "Well, it wasn’t bad."
Waldorf: "Well, there were parts of it that weren’t very good though."
Statler: "It was kind of uneven."
Waldorf: "I didn’t really like it."
Statler: "It was awful."
Waldorf: "IT WAS TERRIBLE!"
Statler and Waldorf: "TAKE IT AWAY!! HEY BOOOO!! BOOOOOOOO!!!"

Tougi, my cousin and I would always mix peanut butter and sugar together. Along with honey. And corn syrup. And chocolate chips. And then you eat it with a spoon whilst watching Tiny Toons and Tazmania. Man, now I want a heaping bowl of the Special Peanut Butter Mixture. And for Tazmania to be on television.

Taz-Mania ruled, and I must be the only person who has a near-complete collection on tape. Its rarity has served me well in internet tape trades, though.
