Photos from Paris

Nikki and I went to Paris for my final spring break ever! Promise! As we used to say: WOOOO! SPRING BREAK!

So, we took many photos including the following.

To the left is Nikki and I heading to Versailles. What a big home and so few bathrooms!

Here we are atop the Arc de Triomphe. If any of you know me, you know that I hate heights. (That’s why G-d put me so low to the ground…)Luckily, to get to the top of the arch, you climb a completely enclosed, spiral staircase. Once at the top, you get fantastic views to the entire city; and it’s a great place to watch the sun set.

Robert Klein KILLED last night!

Last night, I saw comedy legend Robert Klein at the Punchline in Atlanta, Georgia. He absolutely killed with a mix of new and old material. Unfortunately, the room was only half-full.

The sandwich seemed more portable than an egg and cheese biscuit. I wasn't worried about crumbs falling and leaving oil stains on a nice shirt or tie. The Negative: 1. The McGriddle buns were cold. (I'll chalk this up to the fact that I ordered this at 10:26 AM, four minutes before the breakfast cut-off.) 2. As you can see from the photo, the bun was smushed just a tad. Verdict: According to food scientists, there is an optimal combination of ingredients that makes food highly palatable - sugar, salt, fat, flavor, and texture - and delicious. McGriddles packs a hyper-palatable punch using sweet and savory f...

Ruby LOVES Colbert’s Americone Dream!

Dogs love ice cream; however, Ruby cannot get enough of Stephen Colbert’s Americone Dream. She is a fan of Colbert (loves the commentary, but can do without the Bear Hatred). But when I let her have the remnants of a pint of his Ben & Jerry’s ice cream, she became a ravenous maniac! Photo Below: Technorati Tags: Americone Dream , Colbert , Ben & Jerry , Atlanta
