apple juice

Well, back a couple months ago, I was happily blogging away about the new chipotle that had opened. The week prior to the official opening, they had been giving away free burritos while training in their staff.

One day in particular, I went there for both lunch and dinner for free burritos!

Well, I’ve also been reading
Fast Food Nation for the past couple weeks and I’ve been to say the least “moved” by it.

So anyways, we were out to dinner at Punch Pizza, and
Fast Food Nation came up… and Jamie says, “yeah there is a Chipotle Nutrtion Calculator that you can use to calculate your burrito.

Well, curiosity killed the cat. That day I had the two burritos, I consumed an enormous amount of food:

• 2,826 Calories
• 100g of Fat
• 148mg of Cholesterol
• 7742mg of Sodium

Wow.

So I’ll be cutting back on the Chipotle. Actually I haven’t been there for 2 weeks. But it’s calling, it’s calling.

I think I’ve made this plea before… if you read one article that I’ve posted read this one… and this time it’s true as well. Read this article.

And so, bit by bit, the country we thought we knew is slowing slipping away, while the media the Founding Fathers intended to serve as a government watchdog appears to be collaborating with the government instead.

This is my 300th post on this website.

To mark the event. Two excellent articles from Slate. (Andrea, these are for you! — “I can’t believe you haven’t posted anything on Dick Clarke yet!”)

U.S. Decision On Iraq Has Puzzling Past (washingtonpost.com)

Five years ago, the Dec. 1 issue of the Weekly Standard, a conservative magazine, headlined its cover with a bold directive: “Saddam Must Go: A How-to Guide.” Two of the articles were written by current administration officials, including the lead one, by Zalmay M. Khalilzad, now special White House envoy to the Iraqi opposition, and Paul D. Wolfowitz, now deputy defense secretary.

The birds are chirping, the sun is out. Spring is here. It’s supposed to almost hit 60 degrees this week!

Time for two of my spring rituals. Cleaning up petrified dog poo, and giving the cars a much need bath.

The match day results are in. We are moving to Minneapolis!

It’s going to be a busy summer. . .

Today is the big day!
