The People I Know Are The Best


The People I Know Are The Best, originally uploaded by JakeEbel.

So Alycia says to Zack and I, "I'm going to make something to eat but it's probably not going to be any good."

Then we come out to this.

Alycia, babe, I think you need to have a little more confidence in your abilities, because that meal was pretty darn fantastic.

Sauteed shrimp and cherry tomatoes on a bed of roasted potatoes with a lentil soup on the side and yes, it's perfectly normal for your mouth to be watering at this point folks.

Good eats people. Good eats.

Dogs Make Me Happy Because They're Happy

What other animal/person/robot enjoys driving around as much as a dog? There is no peer to them in this field. They own it.

Which is why when I saw this particular canine TOTALLY FREAKING OUT about riding around with his head out the window it made me very happy. So happy in fact that I was suddenly DESPERATE to get a quick shot of him, and there it is.

Enjoy your ride little guy. You definitely made me enjoy mine.

More Pirate Booty

Captain Beka and myself ruled the high seas and came home with the title of Dread Pirate.

It was, without a doubt, quite a victory.

Pirate Booty

This is the cake Ian constructed for the dread pirates. As you can clearly see it was pretty fantastic.

I use the word "was" because sadly, for the cake, it ceased to exist shortly after it came into existence. For the cake killers though, it was a time of great pleasure.

It's all about honesty...


It's all about honesty..., originally uploaded by JakeEbel.

I love it when I see people really putting themselves out there. I mean, why not? It's better that people know what they're getting themselves into. That way when something inevitably goes wrong nobody is surprised. Instead they're just like, "Oh yeah, that's right, you have issues."

If instead they act all surprised then you can just run over them with your gigantic truck at that point. Fair warning is fair warning in my book.

I don't think so.


I don't think so., originally uploaded by JakeEbel.

The other evening I had the great privilege of spending some time with my friends at a local eatery. While perusing the menu I happened upon the above entry.

It confused me.

"Vegetary?" I wondered. What exactly is "vegetary" supposed to mean? I had some ideas that I thought might work right up until I saw the word following it. "Vegetary chicken?"

Hmm...No clue.

I'm sorry, but if you're using a word that doesn't even have a wiki entry then you need to think twice about it. As far as I'm concerned if it's not in wikipedia then it doesn't really exist. Either that or it's just stupid, or maybe both. Probably both.

Interesting Signs


Interesting Signs, originally uploaded by JakeEbel.

So, I saw this sign in the grocery store parking lot and I really don't know what to make of it. I mean it's a pretty odd sign. As much as I'd like to meet the person who made it I'm even more interested in meeting the person who thinks it applies to them. At the time nobody had taken the plunge and parked there. So either the sign is a complete failure or it's actually working perfectly. All I know is it's a prime spot, and next time, I'm parking there.

It snowed again.

I'm not exactly sure what kind of winter we are going to have, but I'm fairly sure it will be more interesting than the past few years. At least I hope it will be. If it isn't then I think we should just skip it next year.

Mystery Plant

I don't remember what kind of plant this is but I love it, and I think it loves me. Either way I think I'll be taking many more pictures of it.
