Curry Flavored Potato Chips

Saturday, March 18th, 2006

I knew there was some, unforeseeable at the time, reason I moved to Toronto… and last night that reason revealed itself in the form of Lay’s new “Spicy Curry” flavored potato chips.

Sunday, March 12th, 2006

When I read this story about the re-branding of the Volvo logo, my nostrils flared and I screamed out a vulgarity that’s probably best not repeated, even on the Internet.

Captain Kronos - Vampire Hunter (1974)
What he doesn’t know
about vampires wouldn’t
fill a flea’s cod piece.
OK, so this isn’t the traditional ReviewHiaku, it’s is an actual line from the movie. When I counted the sylablles, I just could not resist posting it, and I really couldn’t be bothered to have paid more attention to the movie.
