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.
