Ok, Ok...

UH... WHAT THE HELL IS THIS???

Apparently I'm not good enough to be a training specialist or a Assistant Bank Manager trainee in Lake Charles, LA.... LOL! Oh well, as with all things we go on and will continue to get my hustle on...

Sooo... Just got back from a marathon travel sesh... Kinda sucks having to come back to the residence but I did find out a lot of things on this trip...

So what did Alan find out? (In no particular order...)

1.) Driving 4 days in a rent-a-truck dragging your mother's SUV behind you on busy free/highways friggin' sucks...

2.) I still don't know where the hell Van Horn, TX is... But the Chevron truck stop had a BOMB ass Mexican restaurant with the BEST salsa I've had in awhile!!!

3.) Truck stop restaurants kick MAJOR ass...

4.) Monster Energy, Red Bull, and Rockstar Energy drinks ARE your best friends...

5.) Don't ever travel with a mother who says "It's up to you when you wanna stop..." Then proceeds to bitch about being hungry and tired 30 minutes later...

6.) Texas is a BIG ASS state!!!

7.) Dairy Queens must be VERY popular in Texas...

8.) Don't rent trucks from Budget Rentals in Reno... Son of a bitch sent us out on the road with 2 bald front tires on the truck and 3 bald tires on the trailer carrying my mom's truck... Good thing we stopped at that Shell in Wickenburg...

9.) If given a choice stay at a Holiday Inn Express... La Quinta Inn's are SKETCHY AS HELL!!!

10.) No matter where you go Denny's Grand Slam Burgers KICK ASS!!!

11.) I'm suddenly starting to realize that my mother complains about various afflictions that she may be a hypochondriac...

12.) Apparently if you have a Wal Mart you are considered in civilization... (Used to be McDonald's...)

13.) Driving the I-10 East in Houston on a Saturday night in a rent-a-truck dragging an SUV behind you is the scariest thing EVER!!!! I think that steering wheel still has indentations where my hands where...

14.) Lake Charles is humid!!!

15.) Ryan's in Lake Charles is the best buffet in that town and cheap too! (Ok, who are we kidding, anyplace that has fried porkchops, catfish, greens, mac and cheese, red beans and rice, is ALWAYS good to me...)

16.) I REALLY miss Arizona...

17.) I need to get myself a job... LOL

I'm sure I missed a bunch of stuff but that's all I got mentally for now...

Have a good one!

Heart Healthy?

OMG, WHY???  LOL!!!

So me and a few buddies were talking about burgers on our SOCOM clan's message board and In N' Out came up my squad leader was telling me that I needed to try some fries "Animal Style", and a Cheeseburger "Whole Grill", I was like heck any smothered french fry dish I'm all about that!!!  And from what I gathered about the "Whole Grill" that's a grilled cheese...  Although I could be wrong...  S0 I was looking up the "Secret" menu online and I found a link to the mystical and I'd say most LETHAL burger on the In N' Out menu...

The 100X100!!!  Holy crap!  It's so disgusting looking, but I totally have the mind to try and order it...  It's the car wreck syndrome...  You want to turn away but you cant!!!  Of course the burger is damn near 100 bones...  So forget that...  I'll just get me a 4X2 and be happy...  LOL    

What Would Your Last Meal Be?

A Fuddrucker's buger.  They don't call them the World's Greatest Burger for nothing!  

A thai menu, I'd like one of everything please!!!

I was thinking about this as I was waiting for damn near 2 hours for a seat at a freakin' casino buffet.  Don't know why I was thinking about it, but here it goes...  

Death Row inmates get a last meal of their choice prior to their execution and I got to thinking, what if I found out that I was going to die tomorrow what would I want?  There are so many things that I would probably want to eat prior to checking out of Hotel Life.  

First would be a big ol' juicy 1lb Fuddrucker's burger with no sauce just a pile of veggies and some mayo and some steak fries!  Man, being able to taste that buttery bun and that savory beef one last time would be heaven to me!  

The second thing I would probably want to eat would be some Thai food!  I'm a product of a Thai household so of course I'd have to have food that I grew up with!!!  A perfect menu for me would be some satay (Meat on a stick with peanut sauce), tod mun (Fish patties with a cucumber salad dip), some stuffed chicken wings, and thai toast (Toast stuffed with seasoned ground pork with a cucumber salad dip).  I'd also partake in some larb (Ground beef cooked with lemon, fish sauce toasted rice and peppers served with cabbage or lettuce.).  Of course I'd have to get some papaya salad as well!  (Oooh so fresh and tasty!!!).  Now that's for starters... 

I'd of course then move into the main dishes.  Items like pud thai (Noodles with shrimp, bean sprouts, egg and peanuts), and some thai fried rice (Spicy fried rice cooked with basil served with a fried egg and some cucumber slices).  I'd also have some beef basil  and some chicken with white pepper and garlic.  Another item worth having would be some chicken curry with coconut milk, so rich and good and spicy!  

For dessert I'd have some sticky rice and mangoes along with some thai iced tea.  Thai dishes are spicy, savory and so sweet and tasty that would be something that I could not miss before dying!    

In the waning hours prior to kicking the bucket, I'd need to have some dessert!  I'd have some Pumpkin Pie with whipped cream and some ice cream!

So that's it, if I ever find out I'm exiting stage left tomorrow...  You could count on that being the last meal...  If I'm gonna check out I'm checking out full and happy!!!  

Who Knew?

Pumpkin Pie, whipped cream and ice cream anyone?  Damn I'm such a fatty...

Olivia Munn and I share a love of PIE!  Now that's my kinda lady!  I'm a pumpkin kind of guy not too sweet and not too rich! Criminy I'm a freakin' nerd... 

Although I can't say I dollop my pie with da 'Whip like Miss Olivia here...
