What if…?

This is an interesting article on if Mc Donalds changed to veggie burgers instead of the normal beef patties.

LINK

“The study compares the McVeggie burger with McDonald’s beef burger and asks what if the next 100 billion burgers were McVeggie patties instead of beef? McDonald’s customers would benefit from an estimated 1 billion more pounds of fiber, 550 million fewer pounds of saturated fat, 1.2 billion fewer total pounds of fat and even 660 million more pounds of protein, the authors say.”

It has happend again!

Ok, so you guys know “The Law School Girl” story I posted a while back. Well…Change the “law school” to “english major” and you got what happend to me this past weekend. Much of it was exactly the same, even the fact that it was when I was going to nationals. Which is really strange. Really the only difference is that this girl told me over the phone, but it was pretty much the same shit. I am not sure what the deal is, I suppose I just attract women that are in relationships and make them forget for brief amounts of time. Or maybe I have the ability to use the Jedi mind trick, except it is always on and only works on girls that are currently dating someone. At any rate, it’s damn funny and I hope you laugh at me.

Collegiate Nats Day 3 and 4 : The Races

Day 3:

The crit was insane. Soaking wet roads and fast speeds made this race unreal. As for me, I woke up to a snot filled head, a cough and a body that ached. I ended up lasting about half the race, which I thought was good considering.

I got some Nyquil and dinner and went to bed.

Day 4:

Feeling much better I went into the road race ready to make something happen. I got a good spot on the starting grid in the second row. I had great positioning the entire race and was even in a break away attempt. About half way through the race (mile 40ish) I notice the wheel truck flying past the entire feild. Not two minutes later I get a flat, with no wheel truck behind me. Completely stupid. I end up riding back part of the way and hitch a ride with a medic truck. Once they get me back to the parking lot I go to unload my bike and they drive off. Leaving me to walk down the gravel road to the car. Eventually I did get my bike back but it was a great topper to the rest of the day. Oh well.
