At first, the Japanese Buffet sounds like a great idea. Japanese food, and as much as you can eat. All the sushi you can eat. The first hurdle is the cost. Nearly twice or thrice a regular buffet. And you forget that others have heard of the buffet, and they too think it's a good idea. So they bring all their friends and family. The fact the sushi is machine made, and sliced thin to boot, begins to spoil the moment. By the 30th piece, they all begin to taste pretty much the same. And you know something is up with the food when I have to down half a gallon of water, and I'm still parched. So all in all, the Japanese Buffet is no different then any other buffet: a bad bad idea. . . . . . . . . . . I don't think it's a big secret that I use Sitemeter to track page traffic. And although I'd rather be using Nedstat, the data I've been getting back has been adequate. So I notice that I've been getting a lot of eyeballs from And Then? But a little confusion reigns about my blog title, and my current handle. Which I should probably change before the lawyers send me nasty notes. Desert of the Mind - a) It sounds pretty cool. b) I was supposed to move to Arizona, so this was going to be a blog from the desert. TwinkietheKid - a) Who doesn't love Twinkies? In high school, I bought a box a week, and ate two each day for lunch. And the cartoon character is so cute. b) I'm not a big fan of the bannana analogy. Twinkie is a much better choice. Follows the same logic as the more common term Oreo. It all makes sense now, right? It doesn't? Well, who names their uber-Catholic site And Then? ?
