Life, the Bagelverse, and Everything


Friday, March 16th, 2012

So thinking on a job title, I decided that I could never really be at the very top - primarily because I'm not omnipotent.  Small doughballs grow up to be something fancy, much like a Lord of All Bageldom might have done.  However, none reach so high or go so far as the near-omnipotent everything bagel.

   The everything bagel is, by its very nature, all knowing.  It has all knowledge and wisdom.  It knows what's going to happen before it happens and is aware of events so far in the past they came long before the beginnings of what we call the universe*.

   Thinking more on it, does it not resemble a galaxy, dotted with sesame stars and onion asteroids!  They swirl across their superstructure!  How grand is that?  Given these facts, is it really so hard to believe that the everything bagel knows who's going to win next year's Oscar, what you had for breakfast, the atomic weight of cobalt, and how many licks it takes to get to the tootsie roll center of a tootsie pop.  The everything bagel *CAN* believe it's not real butter.  The everything bagel could easily count to infinity.  Twice.  Such is it's power.

   I know what you're thinking.  If the everything bagel DOES know the answers to the great questions in life, why not ask the everything bagel the answers to these great questions.  I get that question a lot.  The answer, of course, is that bagels can't talk.  That would just be crazy.

*The everything bagel would tell you it's the bagel verse.

Star Wars Celebration Orlando 2017, or What It's Like When a Nerd Takes Acid

Image
I went to Star Wars Celebration, and I feel the need to tell you about it and provide you with an honest, clear review of this event. You have been warned. Firstly, are you a fan of Star Wars ? I don't mean "Yes, I saw some of those. They were good." I'm not referring to the people who have seen each and every single film, some more than once. I'm not even talking to people who have a plush taun-taun, or that 'one really rad shirt from the first film in Japanese.' If you are one of these people, congratulations, you are well adjusted, have a strong appreciation for a culturally significant movie, and probably go to therapy for other reasons. Also, if you're a casual fan and live nearby, sure, give it a shot, maybe take a day trip to check some stuff out. If you wake up every morning in Star Wars sheets and eat Kellogg's C-3PO's  from a vintage 1997 Special Edition Re-Release Box with a light up lightsaber spork, DO I H

TESLA REVIEW PART II: THE ELECTRIC BOOGALOO

Image
PART I: THE BASICS Now we're on to the ACTUAL REVIEW! What's it like to drive a Tesla, for the average joe? I'm not a man who drives a BMW 3 series, or a Mercedes, or an Audi. Or a Lexus. Or an Acura. I don't have the latest Mazda 6 series. I have a FIFTEEN YEAR OLD Honda Accord. I imagine a large number of Tesla drivers will be coming from a similar experience - so I want to share what it's like moving from a car to an electric-powered rocket with wheels, airbags, and the most advanced cupholders I've ever seen. Here's the car. It's smaller than I thought, has no power, and I can't get the trunk open. A model Model 3. If I paid it to wear clothes, It would be a model model Model 3. As for the ACTUAL car: First, you gotta get INTO the thing. You walk up to it with cellphone in pocket, push in on a block bit which pops the handle out, pull the handle, and climb in. So far, I've noticed that this works 95% of the time. 5% of the time

Spanish for Donut

I'm BACK!  After several weeks of long, long hours at a fun, but unfortunately short term position, I have returned to my roots! Unfortunately, I can't tell you where I was working, not because of the project I was working on - because the position I had (special kind of Production Assistant based around intellectual property security). I CAN tell you that it was in Miami. And I learned some things there.  Something important and breakfast related.  Churros. Those are delicious. It's like a single donut stick - a Mexican donut-saber.  It's an oddly long and amazingly delicious treat. Churros are served hot - the outside is awesomely crispy, covered in a stardust-type sprinkle of cinnamon and sugar, and the inside is a melty, doughy blend of amazing deliciousness. You should go get one of these right now, for two reasons.  Firstly, because based on their addictive nature, I have to at least guess that somewhere in that cinnamon sugar mix is crystal meth or some other
