ice cream scooper man

Here's a story:

A couple days ago, I was performing my Kraft duties in the Albertson's grocery store in Park City, UT. A man came up to me asking, "Do you guys sell ice cream scoopers?"

I replied, "Sorry, I'm not sure, I don't actually work here..." A very common statement to the "where is the...." questions I receive throughout the day as I work in different grocery stores.

This man looked very familiar. I thought, "...he's gotta be some news anchor, I swear." He was wearing a baseball cap and I couldn't recall his name. I overheard him holler to his wife and call her Arlene. With that clue, I went online to detective-google this familiar face. This is the news anchor that I couldn't help find an ice cream scooper.

I wish I would've gotten him to sign a box of Wheat Thins for me...

adopt an oreo man

We're looking for a home for this Oreo Man. We haven't been able to find one, so for now he will be a surprise in my roommates bed... Would you like to adopt this Oreo Man?

a first on the radio

I've never been on the radio. Yesterday was my debut. Not only did I debut, but I appeared a second time. The first time calling in I won two tickets to the AVP tour and the second time, $20 gift certificate to Nickel Mania. Thanks x96.

i constructed something

I moved into my new place in the big city of Salt Lake and was looking for furniture. I refused to buy the cheap Ikea stuff, thinking, "I could build that." So I did. I drew a plan, went to Home Depot, and constructed a nightstand/book shelf with my two bare hands. What a great experience.

just give me a hollar...

I was checking craigslist for some potential furniture and came across this in the free section.


I know it's good Oscar Meyer bacon (a Kraft product...), but really? How do you respond to this post? Are there Internet panhandlers out there? Everything's going digital in 2009.

anything for a whopper

This is why I love marketing. Burger King keeps things exciting. Would you give up 10 Facebook friends for a Whopper? I think I just might.

And look at me... now I'm blogging about Burger King. The BK has turned into a marketing genius.

best crowd in the nation

Here's some excerpts from this article:

• Wake Forest had to rally from an eight-point deficit in the second half and an entire game of deafening taunts and chants from the home fans, who were loud and rowdy throughout the night.
• "In the ACC, there's some great crowds but this one was amazing," said Jeff Teague, who led Wake Forest with 30 points, one off his career high.
• The crowd of 26,096 was the second-largest in Marriott Center history and the fans, thousands in matching white BYU T-shirts, were loud and rowdy from the time the Deacons started warming up until the game ended.
• Teague said the ACC crowds aren't as loud as what he faced Saturday.

We may not win, but we know how to cheer on our cougars. This was a great game to attend.

a negative first

My days are numbered in wyoming, 5 1/2 or so. On my drive up tonight from Salt Lake I experienced a "first." My thermometer in the sebring hit a negative temperature. It was a thrill. It reminds me of a bumper sticker on a car I saw in rock springs: "Wyoming sucks. Now go home and tell your friends."
