Shaun Lewis: the Man, the Myth, the Legend

So, here’s a funny little thing I found on my computer. If you have a Mac, go to Terminal (it’s in Applications - Utilities in case you’ve never used it before) and type in “cat /usr/share/calendar/calendar.history” and you’ll be presented with a list of events from history. It’s a neat little Easter Egg that is included in the system. Funny, yes, but not as funny as one of the events I found…

ARGH! How is glass bottle Coke SO bloody GOOD?! If you can’t tell, I’m craving it pretty bad right now. Maybe a run to Supervalu is in order. Maybe not. Maybe that’s because I’m lazy. I’ll let you decide.

I just tried to eat my bowl of cereal with a fork. The sad thing is that I didn’t realize what I was doing until I was most of the way finished. I have a feeling today will be another “one of those days.”

Apparently Indiana had a holiday they forgot to tell me about. It’s called, “Take a Kid Hunting Day.” It’s real too. I think anything I can say would just be too much; the name pretty much says everything I want. Still though, I have to admit that it’s a little weak. “Teach a Kid to Kill Day” is much better.

So, on the xanga of Jacki, there was a link to an article on the New York Daily News web site about how nerds are the best kind of guys for girls. This is a really good thing for me.

Read the article and learn, ladies.

I have absolutely no idea why, but a whole, complete taco was resting in the middle of the road this morning on my way to work. Naturally, temptation won out and I ran it over on purpose. The situation seemed so surreal that I had to write something about it. Also, I laughed a lot about it afterwards.

I just remembered a funny story and I had to make a post about it because I laughed so hard just thinking about it. My friend Todd was vacuuming his house one day and he went over to vacuum his bird cage where his bird, Lewis, lived. In the process of cleaning it, he vacuumed up his bird and it got stuck in the top part of the vacuum hose.

Really. Just picture it happening, the bird squawking like crazy and him struggling to get it out. That’s comedy.
