Working toward type II diabetes

As if I didn’t have enough reasons to eat food that is horrible for me, General Mills has come out with my new favorite cereal — Peanut Butter Toast Crunch. All the peanutbuttery breakfast cereal goodness of Peanut Butter Captain Crunch, without the hardness to cut the roof of my mouth. I swear if I hadn’t already overeaten before I started eating this cereal, I would have finished the whole box. Instead I settled at half a box in one sitting. That’s some self-control.

And in other news:
Continuing in the vein of hating webforms, another growing trend with websites that is driving me insane is the ridiculous overuse of flash. The Crystal Method website is a great example of this, to pick on one. What ever happened to using the web to provide CONTENT to people who are interested in it? Everyone has to have the coolest-looking website and threw away the idea of having actual content that might be useful to people. For example, I’m currently listening to the Crystal Method’s newest album “Legion of Boom” and on track 2 “Born Too Slow” there is some dude singing worse than I could. I want to know who he is. Where can I find that on the website? NOWHERE! When I saw them at south by southwest this past year, they actually had this guy come out and sing the song with him. He looked like this trashy death metal guitar player named Bobby that played in my band in high school for a short time. Either way, the guy who sang this song was a scumy looking guy, but the crowd seemed to like him for some reason. Not worth wasting my time looking into. Instead, I’ll change the music and go with The Orb. Now they have a website that is easily managable. Within ten seconds of looking at their website, I found out that mc soom t did the vocals on track 2 (Aftermath). So maybe there is hope for the internet.
