My kids will also be british.


om nom nom nom.

Kitty fun time.

Since getting all the hot-sauce for Christmas, I decided to start posting the recipes I come up with to cook this stuff up. Here's what I made today.

• 1 box tri-color rotini
• 1/3 jar alfredo sauce
• 1/3 jar tomato sauce
• 3 tablespoons ground red pepper
• 2 cups frozen peeled tailless shrimp
• vidalia onion and peach hot sauce
• parmesan cheese
  

Thaw the shrimp under running water in a collander, boil the pasta in a large pot. In a saucepan on medium heat, add the crushed peppers until steaming. Then add the alfredo sauce, and the tomato sauce. Then stir in the hot sauce; a shake or two is good, or you can kick it up a notch. When the sauce is starting to boil, set the pot to warm and add the shrimp. Spoon the sauce over the pasta and garnish with parmesan cheese.

So far, my favorite thing I've found on the internet today.

I added the Flickr Photostream over on the left to display pics from my flickr account. I might change it around to show the latest pics added, but for now it shows ones that I've tagged and want to display. The cool thing about this is that I can take pics and upload from anywhere and they'll automatically start showing up here at The Gospel.

So part of having a girlfriend is going to see the corny  animated flicks, which this time around ended up being pretty ok. Better than I expected at least. David Cross is the sole reason to see this movie, and granted you will have to tolerate quite a bit of annoyance to enjoy the good parts. But whatever, you can handle it, and don't even tell me you didn't love the chipmunks as a kid.

Now I get to pick the next movie, except I'll probably end up wasting that pick on Kung Fu Panda...

So I was working on the site layout today and I nearly killed the whole thing. This site is driven on some complex code and is very volatile it turns out. I'm going to have to pay close attention to what I hack together on here and also keep good backups. I'm just glad I got it looking pretty again.  New features to come tomorrow.

Johnny Lee is an amazing talent in computer science and has been hacking the wii to make it show it's full gaming potential. Check out his latest project.

Head down to the mall and watch the kids who just got a pair of those heelie shoes with wheels bust their asses since they haven't learn how to walk again. I walked in the food court for lunch today and it was like a freakin ice rink in there. Little bastards hangin onto their moms as they fell all over the place. Hilarious.

almost as good as this jackass:

My family has this thing, where if you ask for something for christmas, they just take it to the extreme, I assume simply to fuck with me. I asked for a bottle or two of unique hot sauce. This is what I got. If you include the salsas, the total count is 75.

Sometimes, ok quite often, I will read the personal ads on Craig's List because I'm fascinated by the crap that people come up with to try to attract a mate. However when I saw this ad, I had to respond.

10:30 christmas morning and I've just spent the past 2 hours installing my new Sirius radio in the 'stang. It was pretty straightforward, i was able to get all the way through without the use of the manual. =] Then a quick call to Ratesh at customer service and it was activated and bumpin. Big shout outs to Ratesh for workin the call center on christmas day. Have yourself an eggnog or 12 while you take the rest of the calls today.  Highlight from Christmas eve: My 22 year old male cousin got a vintage tamagotchi toy. How many car crashes were caused by crazy people trying to feed, bathe, and punish their super-trendy 'virtual pets' for 24 hours a day? Lil sis nabbed me a sweet Sushi set along with Iron Chef Morimoto's cook-book. I'm so pumped to try out some of those recipes, they look simply amazing. Pops is on the way, so I have to go snack on a some more vittles  be for we get into the gifts thing with this side of the fam. Then I'm gonna hit the road back up to Nova to see my girl and her fam. Happy holidays folks!

A handy bacon flowchart for you.

So last night, Angela came to visit and we went to Dremos to put away beers and play some shuffleboard. We had a great time and were pretty sauced by the end of the night. So this morning we hopped over for some brunch at Ragtime and it was a total laugh riot. Jonny was in not-so-rare form as he's always freakin hilarious. I went to flick a little creamer cup at him, but instead of it flying towards him, it explodes and creamer shoots all over his face like a moneyshot.  This was right as the waitress walked up and instead of getting pissed off she was just like oooooooooooooook you're cut off. How cool is that? She got a sweet tip for putting up with our shit. Karen just finished wrapping my christmas presents because I am completely incapable of making them look good when I do it. In a little bit I'll head down to 757 to hang out w/ the fam damnly and my crew.  If I don't see ya, have a blessed holiday. Peace.

Looks like I've got most of the kinks worked out so far, so I'm pleased about that. While troubleshooting my problems I've learned a little bit about the potential resurrection of the last "dead" scrummyweb. I have backups of all the entries, but I'm not sure if I have the actual database that is used to build the site from the entry records. If I'm going to import the old entries into this new site, I'll likely need to find the database or else it's going to be an arduous task of importing all 700 or so entries one by one, if that's even possible. I may have to hire a slave intern to help out with that. Apply now! You will be payed in Bud Light.

the new site is on the way.
