Hot Dog Man May Be My Protein Answer!

It's hump day again. They are calling for temps in the 30's tonight or tomorrow night in the MIDDLEwest...already?

I slept very well last night. I think I may have discovered the reason for my sleeping problems. I wake up (just kidding)...I think my blood pressure medicine is the culprit. I didn't take it last night and I slept very well. It was also cooler last night and I like it a bit cooler than it's been. I will continue my independent sleep study and will keep the medical world updated. I have been conducting another independent medical study and, though I am not ready to offer my hypothesis yet I will give you my preliminary thoughts on that too. As you probably know if you read the blog religiously I have had difficulty keeping my protein levels up. I began eating meat last Friday and since then I have had: a gyros, a hamburger on the grill, one chicken nugget and beef tacos for dinner Monday night. I donated plasma yesterday and my protein level was 6.3. That is about where it usually is for the Tuesday donations so it appears to have changed nothing protein-wise. Friday's are usually my lower protein-level days  becasue they suck the protein out of my on Tuesday and it doesn't return to full-strength by Friday. So, I have two independent medical studies going on simultaneously. One day maybe one of those disclaimers on medicine bottles,  "independent studies show..." will be mine? Or maybe I will die in the process of my studies. At least I will have gone in the name of science. 

Bartz wanted more dead presidents

It has been announced that Hollywood is continuing it's lazy ways and is remaking another film. It seems like they are on a current mission to remake Patrick Swayze movies. First Dirty Dancing and now Point Break. I like Point Break. The acting isn't very good but I like the idea of the story. Who will make a cameo? Gary Busey? Lori Petty? Keanu? I can't wait for Ghost and Road House to be remade.

I feel sorry for former Yahoo CEO Carol Bartz. She was just fired from her job and all they gave here for severance was $9.4 million. I hope she can manage. So, for being treated so poorly she went on a profane-laden tirade blasting Yahoo. She said that the board member were doofuses and they f'd her over. If being f'd over if getting $9.4 million I would be happy to be f'd over. There are many prostitutes that get f'd over every night for far less I am sure.

I almost forget, speaking of whoring one's-self out, to tell you that the new Dirty Laundry Podcast is ready for your auditory enjoyment. I listened to it yesterday while I did real laundry. Our dryer took a poop and I washed all of the clothes here and took them to a laundroMATT and filled six dryers. Time to get a new dryer in dirty laundry central!

I suspect Kobayashi!

Someone in Council Bluffs, Iowa called police because "a man in a hot dog suit was standing around near a bus stop." If it's wrong to stand around in a hot dog suit in Council Bluffs I don't think I want to go to Council Bluffs. Police raced to the scene and discovered a 6' statue of Hot Dog Man standing there minding his own concrete business just waiting for the wiener mobile I suppose. The Hot Dog Man was first made famous when it showed up to promote a hot dog store in Durham, North Carolina. This country is so intolerant of hot dogs. We don't have to eat them but we should accept them. If you want to see a short film about the original Hot Dog Man click this HOT DOG MAN LINK! It appears to be the same Hot Dog Man that showed up in Iowa but his arms have been broken off - it's probably a mafia or casino job if you ask me. Leaving a hot dog without his condiments seems pretty inhumane. It's total celery assault (is celery salt on a hot dog just a Chicago thing?) I imagine they were just trying to send a message to all of the other hot dogs out there that if they step out of line this could happen to them.

Have a nice MIDDLEweek. I am sure I will blog again tomorrow unless one of my medical experiments go horribly wrong. TTTT...MITM (offen sie)
