ElinNordegren.
New York (the magazine) asked David Alan Grier, "What do you think of Tiger Woods's Swedish wife?"
To which he answered, "I'll tell you, she's the blackest person in that family. Chasing down his car. Smashing windows with a golf club. She went straight-up BET on his ass."

Stalqer.
Check it out at the iTunes store (their site isn't updated yet). It integrates with your Facebook, Twitter, etc. and it seriously allows people to stalk you.. or for you to get stalked.
Kind of creepy.. But I'm intrigued.

PB&BananaEatingContest.
According to the IFOCE (International Federation of Competitive Eating), there will be a World Peanut Butter and Banana Eating Contest. It will be held on January 9, 2010 in Biloxi, MS to celebrate Elvis' 75th birthday. And! The winner will receive $5,000 in cash!!
That is just awesome.. firstly, that there is an IFOCE.. and "thirdly" because there is a PB&B contest.

MyMorningRant.
This morning I found myself to be.. completely overwhelmed. I, admittedly, broke down and started crying. I tried stopping the tears, but for a good ten minutes they kept streaming down my face. I gained my composure after inhaling deeply several times.. and I headed to work. I saw my co-worker and she asked me how my weekend was, I immediately began tearing up again. I tried to control myself - I hate having others see me cry. I vented to her, and eventually I calmed down again. I'm at work in a state of indifference. My phone vibrates.. it's 10 o'clock, it's my daily horoscope. I subscribed to it for fun, but it's interesting because sometimes my horoscope can really relate to my current life. I check my phone, I read my text and it says, "Sagittarius, Dec 14: This situation won't last forever, but it may go on longer than you'd prefer."
Oh how true it is!
My thoughts on the situation is that.. you can't live someone's life for them. You cannot tell them how to live their life. But I feel that you can guide them.. suggest things and give reasons as to why one route may be better than the other route(s). And then, it's up to the person to decide on what he/she wants to do. But it's hard sometimes.. because sometimes things are seen so much more clearly from an outsider's point of view. Sure, at times, as an outsider we are not able to know every detail of what is going on, and because we are not in their situation we do not understand the full context of it. We don't know the emotions that go along with the situation. But when the same mistakes are done repeatedly.. and you keep guiding the person to go to the "better" route but they don't, what can you do? We want to be there for the person that means so much to us, but after trying to help him/her correct his/her repeated mistakes.. what can we do? After years of hearing about the same problem(s), we grow tired of the person not learning from his/her mistakes. So what do we do? Do we let him/her live his/her own life and continue being hurt, while nudging him/her at his/her side to go the other route? Or do we just give up.. tired and exhausted from saying the same thing over and over and over and over again? Honestly.. nothing will change if nothing is changed.
I don't know what to do, but I am definitely tired. I'm just praying for the best outcome..

MinnesotaAnyone?
For about two years now, I've been wanting to go to the Minnesota State Fair. It's been said that if you can shove it on a stick, this fair's got it! The fair is pretty damn popular and it will be running for twelve days from August 26, 2010 - September 6, 2010. This year, they had a record attendance of 1,790,497 people!
Here's a video about the fair..
Come with me.. so I can knock this off my bucket list. =[ haha.

PartTwoOf26.
the night consisted of some drinking, some sightseeing, some massaging, some gambling, and of course..
some EATING! =D
Dinner was at Bobby Flay's Bar Americain, a restaurant that was highly recommended to me..
and I am highly recommending it to you!
Raw Oysters (it was my first time trying these. we were given 2 sets of oysters from Washington, Massachusetts, and one other state that I cannot recall at the moment. I must say that the ones from Washington were the best!)
Porterhouse Lamb Chops with Mustard Barbecue Sauce, and Corn & Collard Greens Tart.
Sweet Potato Gratin.
Duck, Dirty Wild Rice, Pecans, Bourbon.
Chocolate Banana Hazelnut Crepes.
Let's eat there again! =D
PartOneOf26.
at 12AM, it started off with a cupcake for the each of us.. =]
as lunch rolled around, a stop was made in New Haven, CT for the place that invented the "burger sandwich." a stop was made to.. Louis Lunch.
and across the street was a party in the parking lot.. or at least it seemed that way?

i got the "cheese works." everything comes with tomato and onions unless otherwise stated.. and every burger comes medium rare, unless otherwise stated. i figured i'd try to man up and eat it standard with cheese. it was pretty damn awesome. =] and remember.. NO KETCHUP! they don't serve ketchup.. and i always have some hamburger with my ketchup, but it wasn't really necessary in this case. i still would've preferred it, but it definitely wasn't necessary. it was juicy enough.. and a good enough size with good taste!
and paired it with some orange foxon park. =)
