Update: lime and black pepper chips are not horrible...they're not great, but they're not bad either
looks like lay's salsa is still reigning champ of awful chips

looks like i might've jumped the gun calling lay's salsa the worst chips ever....just got back from grocery shopping and i saw a bag of miss vickie's lime & black pepper chips....i bought a small bag just cause i felt compelled to try them.....i haven't yet but i'll be sure to spread the word once i do
the other event that arose from my grocery run was a 90 minute debate on the merits of various cereals.....heres my all-time top 5:

5. Apple Cinnamon Cheerios
4. Frosted Flakes
3. Corn Pops
2. Frosted Mini Wheats
1. Cheerios

man today sucked the bag....yeah i said it, so what?!
my first early day back to school after a nice reading week of sleeping in, combined with sunday's all-nighter made it especially tough to drag my ass out of bed this morning
so i get up, grab my junk and head out the door (a couple minutes early even) but because the weather was shitty every jackass in guelph decided to take the bus and by the time it hits my stop the busdriver just smiles and drives on by with his packed bus....after 6 buses pass me by one finally stops (45 minutes later) and i cram myself onto it....of course by this time i've missed my first class...the same class i have a midterm in next week, the same class with the nicest prof in the world that i'm pretty sure hates me (and i don't know why)
so then i go to the library cause i need a book for one of my papers (chemical ecology of insects....sexy), the book was there and right in the spot it was supposed to be, i was in and out in under 5 minutes, no problem......except....it broke my streak of 7 1/2 straight semesters without checking a book out of the library....it was a good run but sometimes you have to make sacrifices
ok maybe the whole day didn't suck bag, cause its only 12:30 and i'm home about to play some mvp baseball 2005 (which is decent by the way....and only $40 at eb games)...but the period of time from 8am to about 9:30 was chock full of bag suckery

you know when someone is grabbing a bag of chips for a group of people and you gotta find out what flavours people don't like....well i've always said that it didn't matter to me because i enjoy all flavours of chips.....untill now
Lay's Salsa flavour is the worst tasting chip i have ever had the displeasure to put in my mouth....'how bad is it?' you might be asking....well it was bad enough that i didn't even make a dent in the bag, it went straight to the garbage can
i was expecting something a little spicy, judging from the packaging....and what did i get, bland tomato....not like ketsup type tomato, more like unwashed dirty garden tomato
so in conclusion don't buy lay's salsa flavoured chips.....unless you like dirty garden tomatos....in which case theres about three-quarters of a bag in my trash i can save for you

there, now i feel better
and just to balance it out: go buy doritos tex mex....its dominating the game

just finished my first draft of the season, and damn i forgot how much fun drafts are
the laughter, the anger, the crossed fingers hopeing a player makes it back to your position, and the smack talk....gotta love the smack talk
so thats one down and at least one more to go (tomorrow afternoon), but probably more.....damn i'm sitting here with a big grin on my face like a clown....i love this game
gotta say my team turned out pretty decent, got some top players that i like, got some crap players that i like, and got a whole bunch of new players to grow to love over the season
season starts april 3rd and i can't wait!

A group of chess enthusiasts checked into a hotel, and met in the lobby
where they were discussing their recent victories in chess tournaments. The
hotel manager came out of the office after an hour, and asked them to
disperse. He couldn't stand chess nuts boasting in an open foyer.

ba-doom ching!
