Drama with my favorite cereal

Have you ever found a particular food you like so much and then notice it disappearing from store shelves? And no I’m not talking about baby formula – thanks Joe! I’m finding empty shelves where Kashi Peanut Butter Crunch cereal used to be. This isn’t the first time a cereal has gone missing, though. I remember this happening with Peanut Butter Toast Crunch. I wrote about it here.

So now this Kashi cereal is hard to find. It was regularly at Walmart. Now I can only find it at Publix and, while I love Publix, it’s a small box at a high price. On top of that, the last box I bought at Publix looked like this…………

You better believed I returned it, mostly out of principle. Who wants to pay for a bag half full of air? Thanks a lot, Joe! The cereal can also be found at Target… for now. When I can get to a Target, this is what happens.

Yeah, I’m obsessed, clearly. And then……………….

Then I found a Walmart that had it in stock, too. Remember those big boxes at cheaper prices? When that happens, this is what happens.

Soooooo yeah, I’ve got a problem. I’d ask you to send help but really all I want you to send is more cereal…

Thanks for dropping by!

Professional-Level Frisbee Catches

I don’t know what to say except that you will NEVER see a 43-year-old man catch a Frisbee like this guy! What a pro. In the video below he shows off his amazing speed, ability to cut and shed any defense, and he wraps up his precision route-running with catches and Frisbee slam dunk spikes worthy to be called the GOAT of Frisbee celebrations. OK, maybe I’m not being sarcastic enough. What you’re about to see will make you believe in immortality. This guy gives you the bacon and the sizzle. He charges Hell with a bucket of ice water.

I’ll be signing autographs at the mall next weekend. See you there.

Row vs Wade shouldn’t be controversial

Everyone has an opinion about the decades old case being overturned. My opinion matters as little as theirs does on a global scale, so I won’t bore you with the details of what I think.

The question not many people are answering is what interested me the most today. You’re lounging on a beach either by a lake or the ocean. It’s time to cool off. Do you…

A. Row

B. Wade

I’m a big fan of kayaking so I may row first, then take a dip. Others may be perfectly content wading through shallow waters to beat the summer heat. I guess if I were pressed it would be hard to pick one because both are nice. Especially when it’s blazing hot outside. Can we all agree that either one is a good choice here, people?

Maybe there’s a middle ground. Rowers and waders come together in a show of solidarity. They may even call a truce with the SUPers. It doesn’t have to be such a controversial topic, you know? Now if the question was about expanding the supreme pizza, I’d say yes. More pizza is always better, right? Some may call it packing the court and again I’d say yes. Especially around noon, it’s good for the economy to pack the food court, buying lunch from all the venders and restaurants there.

No matter what you decide about row vs. wade, though, I think we’re all in unison that today is a good day to go to the beach.

Why Baseball Caps After Any Championship?

I watched the Colorado Avalanche win the Stanley Cup the other day. Congratulations to them, and what a fun series to watch as they and the Lightning sparred for 6 games. A game 7 would have been pretty amazing to watch, I’m sure. But now that all the interesting sports are over (and yes, I’m aware baseball is still going on), I guess we have to be strong and stuff while we live through the dry and lifeless months before football starts again. But back to baseball… they DO offer us something worth noting.

Baseball caps.

After Colorado was crowned champions, they all sported hats with their victory stitched across the front. The hats were baseball caps. Professional football does this, too. When a team wins the Super Bowl, they put on baseball hats with “champions” or something similar, on the front.

So then it occurred to me that every sport uses baseball caps. But can you imagine if a baseball team used something from a different sport when they won the World Series? The entire team puts on hockey masks after the last pitch. Or straps soccer shin guards with the 9th inning ends. Or what if the US Men’s soccer team scores the winning goal and proceeds to buckle a disc golf disc carrier around their waists in celebration.

So why do we all use baseball caps for everything? Especially since baseball is the most boring sport in the entire universe. But their hats are cool, I’ll admit that.
