The herd of thirty-six has been thinned to four. Last week, someone poor sucker went home. Their sorry delusion of defeating Adam Lambert, shattered into bits. Was it Matt? I don't even remember. A year from now, I doubt I could tell you who was in … [Continue reading]
Lucky Charms has Crystal Balls
May 5, 2009 By
Lucky has a lot of hobbies: running from kids, hiding bowls of cereal, traveling via rainbow, pulling purple horseshoes off My Little Pony and cramming them in cereal boxes, running from more kids, stamp collecting, and learning how to be a fortune … [Continue reading]
Double Chocolate Cookie Crisp puzzle
May 5, 2009 By
I don't know what it is about Cookie Crisp that makes people want to shove more chocolate in it. Every year General Mills trots out another 10 or 12 boxes of Double Chocolate Cookie Crisp. I can't imagine they sell more than that. They must have … [Continue reading]
Cocoa Krispies ChocoNilla
May 4, 2009 By
If you take Heaven, put Xanadu on top of that, and then stack Hyperborea on top of that, you’d have ChocoNilla. Cocoa Krispies ChocoNilla is the newest version of Rice Krispies. It debuted about two years ago and is inexplicably hard to find. This … [Continue reading]
Apple Jacks: The no nonsense cereal that makes no sense
April 30, 2009 By
Apple Jacks. They’re not apple. They’re not even jacked (distilled) apples. Applejack is a hard cider. I have no idea how the association with kids cereal was made. I mean, what if Frosted Flakes were instead named Frosted Lager. Or if Cheerios were … [Continue reading]
American Idol Results: 5 Become 4
April 30, 2009 By
Last night, the Idols celebrated "The Rat Pack" by singing songs that had a vague connection to the mid-60's group of friends and performers in that they were songs those performers might have heard at some point, in passing. Apparently, the Rat … [Continue reading]
Cereal Awareness Month 2009
April 29, 2009 By
I’ve been lying low this April. It’s Cereal Awareness Month, and I’ve been keeping to the shadows to see how the cause was growing. People, I have to tell you something. We’ve got a steep hill to climb on the road to awareness through the tunnel of … [Continue reading]
American Idol: In Living Duller
April 29, 2009 By
"For the people who remain on this stage, the intensity of the competition is a constant evolution." True. We've seen Adam evolve from an annoying woman into a moderately tolerable ladyboy. "Tonight, they take on some of the most classic American … [Continue reading]
American Idol Results: 7 Become 5
April 23, 2009 By
Last night, the contestants paid homage to the disco era--with the exception of Kris, who sang '80s pop, but that's okay because he was awesome. Adam did not suck at all. Danny was a menace. Allison's one note got played out. Lil still didn't know … [Continue reading]
American Idol: Disco Piano Bar from Hell
April 22, 2009 By
In 1978, I saw Saturday Night Fever. It was my first R-rated movie. My aunt took me to see it, and I think she was a little mortified because half of what went on in that film was not fit for an 11-year-old's eyes. But I had to see it! All the other … [Continue reading]
