Last Meal?

noose.jpgToday at lunch, for whatever reason, I asked a pretty morbid question to my co-workers.

Imagine you were sentenced to death by execution. If given the choice of what your last meal would be (regardless of what it was), would you eat as much food as possible and try to explode your stomach?

See, morbid.

I’m not sure exactly where that came from, but I thought it would be funny to eat as much as you could and just be miserable before you went to meet your maker. I mean, when you’re stuffed to your gills, don’t you just want to die anyway? We’ve all said it, don’t deny it.

Anyway, let me ask a different question to all of you:

If you were sentenced to death by execution and given the choice of what would your last meal would be... what would you request?

I couldn’t do nachos, since I have them quite often. And it couldn’t be wings, that’s too messy of a last meal. Pizza is out, because who wants to down eight slices as their last meal? Mexican food isn’t it, as there isn’t one that really differentiates itself from the pack. Italian? No way, too many carbs. I’d want something filling and flavorful. Something hearty. My choice would be a Flea Market burger (cooked Medium-Raw), McCoy’s macaroni and cheese, Oklahoma Joe’s french fries, cottage cheese and some fried twinkies for dessert.

Sure, I’d be stuffed. But I wouldn’t really have to worry about not having a gallbladder anymore, now would I. *evil grin*

Scooter J, Tour Guide

Yesterday morning I woke up to Bruno calling me at 7:45. I didn't answer the phone, but I knew what he was calling for – The First Annual Spring KC TourWalk, led by Scoot, was beginning soon. I lay there, trying to get myself up and decided that there was no way I would make the 8:00 starting time – sorry Scoot.

At 8:05 I was up and walking around my place and decided to check out the site and see the progress the group had made in the five minutes I missed. To my surprise, the walk was to start at 8:30. I quickly got my stuff together (backpack, sun block, granola bars and water) and drove down to the River Market.

The walk started a little after 8:30 and, after six scenic miles, we reached the Plaza around noon. It was a truly awesome morning and a six-mile walk isn't really that bad at all. I only did half of the walk and have yet found out how the rest went. Though something tells me that a 12-mile hike is child's play for Scoot.

If you don't live in the KC area, or haven't seen it yet, check out the article about Scoot's TourWalk in the Kansas City Star. And congrats Scoot, I can't wait for the next one.

The Article Title Says It All

Anyone remember Barbaro? You know, the horse that wouldn't die? Also known as, the story that wouldn't die on ESPN? I sure do. Well, wouldn't you know it, ESPN can't seem to drop it either since the Kentucky Derby is near. Don't you think the title says it all?
