Yes should be good Jimminy although my main goal is to pass Tamara in number of times seeing Imagine Dragons live, this will be number three. I wish Black Keys wasn't the closer that's the only downer i want to see them and will but it adds 2 hours to getting out of that parking lot when you stay till close.

"Domino's is testing a DVD in Brazil that looks and smells like pizza. The idea goes something like this: When people finish watching a movie and remove the DVD disc from the player, Domino's is going to assault their senses with pizza in hopes it leads to sales. DVDs tend to get hot when they're being played. And so Domino's is stamping discs with heat-sensitive thermal ink and a pizza-scented varnish,"

That's so unfortunately true Kristin. Annoying, but on the plus side I could eat two horses and a cow the next three days and not gain an ounce. My body is a temporary drive thru.

"Looks like the 2013-2014 television season will be a rebuilding year for SNL. An unnamed source at NBC has confirmed to the New York Post that longtime castmember Fred Armisen has decided to exit the sketch show after 11 seasons. That same source tells the Post that SNL veteran Jason Sudeikis will “probably” leave the show as well this year."

"If Armisen and Sudeikis do say goodbye in SNL‘s 38th season finale this weekend, they’ll join fellow departing cast member Bill Hader, who announced his own exit earlier this week. SNL‘s Weekend Update anchor Seth Meyers is also leaving the show, albeit not until 2014"

Oh. They meant "out of the show". I totally thought the headline meant "out of the closet together"
- DAMMIT, MR. NOODLE
Jason Sudeikis is engaged to Olivia Wilde so if i was him i'd wait for that to fall apart before coming out of the closet.

"In this case, Disney (DIS -1.54%) has listened to the more than 210,000 petitioners who complained about the sexy makeover given to the fiery-haired Merida, heroine of "Brave." The media giant on Wednesday restored the original, more realistic version (pictured, left) to its official princess Website, although it hasn't yet released a statement about whether it will keep the original depiction for the long term."

Still, not everyone is convinced that Disney will stay loyal to the original Merida. The character's creator, Brenda Chapman, told the San Jose Mercury News that she's waiting for final word from Disney. "I will stay dubious until they give an official statement about changing the image to match the original version of Merida," she said. Chapman had earlier given a stinging rebuke about the makeover, calling it a "blatantly sexist marketing move based on money."

Public Service Announcement: In trying to figure out what to do with my cayenne peppers sprouting in the garden I turned to the internet, as the internet cannot lie (bonjooouuurrr). Mr internet says they are mild to medium hot, and get hotter as you let them grow from green to red. "Around here Cayenne pepper are eaten out of hand with vegetables."
It's all lies I tell ya, I bit into one of our little green ones to test and oh lordy the roof, the roof, the roof was on fire.

I don't think cayenne are hot when they are green, but I may have a higher tolerance for heat. Of course, I also don't eat the seeds (where the heat it), so it just has a slightly fruity flavor. Anyway, you have a grill. Toss them on there to serve alongside steak. Very yummy.
- Anika
I am probably low tolerance Anika but I definitely ate the seeds, lesson learned. :) I'll definitely try grilling them next time.

"When astronaut Karen Nyberg is launched to the International Space Station, she’ll bring something entirely new to the space frontier: the art of quilting. "I enjoy sewing and quilting," she explained during a televised interview from Moscow. "I am bringing some fabric with me, and thread. I'm hoping to create something. I don't know what yet it will be — that's part of creativity. It comes with the feeling of the day. So I have the supplies at my hands to create, if I get the opportunity and the creative notion to do so." When she's launched into space on May 28, she'll be taking four "fat quarters" with her (pieces of fabric that are 18 by 22 inches), along with some needles and thread. But up-cargo limitations and safety issues mean she can't take a sewing machine, an iron, paints, a rotary cutter or other common tools of quilters."

Vikings unveil pictures of new stadium design | SI Tracking Blog – Tracking MLB, NBA, NFL, NHL, and NCAA On Twitter - http://tracking.si.com/2013...
"Some of the stadium’s proposed features includes what the organization described as the largest transparent roof, which is possible from the first use of clear ethylene tetrafluoroethylene (ETFE) in a stadium in the U.S. The team said that the stadium would also have the biggest “glass pivoting doors” of any stadium, which will open to the Minneapolis skyline. Groundbreaking for the new 65,000-seat stadium will take place in October 2013, and the new stadium is scheduled to open in the 2016 season. The stadium is expected to cost $975 million."

Then a particularly heavy rainstorm followed a series of wet winters, and the lake overflowed its banks on Nov. 10, 1985. Water burst through a retaining wall and spilled into the lakeside streets. People fled with what they could, and within days their homes were submerged under nearly 33 feet of corrosive saltwater. Now the water has mostly receded, exposing what looks like a scene...
