Do you really think he's going to help out the authorities looking for him by revealing that information?

The spicy salsa cheese from the jar is the best.. Nuke it for 30 seconds and you've ascended to heaven.

[Eastern Girl]

^^I don't nuke it. I just mix it with a jar of salsa and that is heaven. I couldn't stop myself tonight from eating a majority of it during the game.

I am expecting to eat a lot of nachos this holiday season but I'm not into jarred cheese. It's just unnatural.

So I'm well stocked with tortilla chips, jars of _salsa_ and shredded cheese. I'm particularly fond the Smooth Pineapple Chile salsa I picked up a few weeks ago. Salsa with fruit in it is something I'm a big fan of.

I agree, any kind of processed cheese grosses me out completely. Except for some strange reason Taco Bell's fries supereme, but I can't look at it after I'm done.

[Eastern Girl]

I enjoy both. At restaurants, I like the shredded cheese. At home, I usually just have the jar. Every once in awhile though, I will shred some cheese, cut up some chicken, smother my nachoes with it and some salsa, put it in the oven... lovely.

Have you tried that mango habanero (God that took me a long time to try figure out how to spell) one? I can't remember who makes it...some Mrs. Something or other...their plain habanero salsa is really good too. Anyways, I honestly will eat that salsa straight out of the jar. It's hot but sweet and just tasty.

Also, lime Tostito's for the win! I can eat those plain as well.

Mrs Renfro's? No. I usually stick with cheap, non-premium salsas. But mango habanero sounds good. I like the flavour of habenero if I can taste more then just searing heat.

I bought something called 'mango slices with chile' a couple of weeks ago and I'm still trying to figure out if I like it or not. It's not salsa but dried mango slices with bits of chili mixed in. The initial taste is this kind of nasty chemical taste of whatever they use to dry the mango but the after taste is this really intense burning chile flavour that kind of sneaks up on you.

Yeah that's the name of it! Anyways, that stuff is delicious. It's got fresh mango in it, not dried stuff and it is unbelievable.

USA, Canada, Mexico, England, Italy, Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia-Herzagoniva, Montenegro, Serbia, Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, Poland, Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Russia, Norway, Estonia, Cambodia, China/Hong Kong/Macau

I also passed through Kosova, but didn't stay there. I did end up at some sort of concert/party that I realized was some political Kosova independence party, but I don't remember which side. Whoops, good thing I didn't get bombed. I was really bummed about missing Albania too.

(If things work out, I'm hoping to do Peru and Bolivia in June, depending on Bolivia's political situation. And I figure when I start working, hopefully they'll send me to Korea and Japan a few times on business haha.)

So far my work day has consisted of eating the greasy bacon and eggers and hashbrowns the company ordered in for us, and drinking several champagne and orange juices and coffee and baileys.

I love my work... but I still don't love being here on Christmas Eve.

[GreenTeaFrapp]

Heated seats aren't just great for staying warm they can also provide entertainment.

I had my dad in my vehicle this morning and since it is pretty mild in Ottawa today (-1) I thought I'd have a little fun with him. I put the heater on his seat to high and five minutes later......

"JESUS CHRIST! Why is it so goddamn hot in here?!"

Heh.

[Buff]

My buddy tells me that a guy he is working with dressed up as a mailman today, saying since he's mailing it in he may as well look the part.

I went to Walmart to get a last minute gift. Mom asked me to get some pop, so I grabbed a couple bottles. A woman literally grabbed the bottles from my arms and ran off. There were tons of bottles left on the shelf, but I guess she really wanted the ones I picked up.

I already am not a fan of Christmas, but now it seems everyone is snowed in, so it'll be me, my mom and my moms husband and his family. I think I will just spend the day in the basement watching movies with my moms creepy cats.

[burn_this_city]

Hahah you should have pushed her or something.. Made a huge scene.. People are screwed up at this time of year.

[CaptainCrunch]

Should have given the rest of the bottles on the shelf a good shake before you left.

If you can't get revenge, take it out on everyone else.

[Pagal4321]

I have been at work for about 2 hours and have done about 5 minutes of work.

Seriously, who's motivated to do work on Christmas Eve?

[Eastern Girl]

I laughed.

Had there not been any bottles left on the shelf however...
