Not really, but this is an important stop on a drive that rivals (imho, beats) the Road to Hana. The North Shore of West Maui is a sight to behold.
Well, this is one of them. Also not to be missed on this drive is the "best banana bread in Hawaii," which is curiously advertised at every location where banana bread is sold. I like that.
"Warning" is my middle name. You don't scare me, sign.
First SCUBA dive of the new year. Worth sleeping through midnight on New Year's Eve for (those dive boats leave ridiculously early, you know).
OK, I'm generalizing based on one datapoint, but it's one very cute datapoint.
Left 4 Dead 2 is a little more satisfying when I can glance over and see Mr. Destructoid nodding in approval of my deadly frying pan.
Thanks for stuffing my stocking with this, Destructoid! If you're envious, get one of your own here.
(That's not a photo of Jeremy Edberg, it's the drummer of the breadpig band, but Jeremy shared this recent exchange. He was out shopping while wearing a breadpig shirt.)
Shopkeep: Is that toast on that pig?
Jeremy: Yep. It's a pig with with bread wings.
S: Huh. Thought it was supposed to be a pork sandwich.
J: Nope. Pig with bread wings.
S: Whatever you say man.

Easily one of the best books I read in 2009, Where Men Win Glory inspires as much as it will appall. Tillman's life story is one of remarkable courage and honor. Contrasted with the way his death (to friendly-fire) was mishandled and outright manipulated, you'll finish this book quickly and with an even grater respect for not only this heroic American, but his mother, who wouldn't be satisfied with anything less than the truth.
