The most recent South Park episode opens with Cartman who can't stand the 3-week wait until the new Nintendo Wii releases. His solution is to freeze himself for the 3 week duration, but an avalanche keeps him frozen for 500 years. Brilliant. Wanna watch? (LINK)
So, what's up with decaf coffee? It came up in conversation the other night. How much caffeine is in a cup of decaf coffee? 6 cups of decaf coffee contains roughly the same amount of caffeine as a single cup of regular coffee. Did you know that decaf coffee represents about 18% of all coffee sales? Also notable is that most of the caffeine removed from coffee is used to caffeinate soft drinks and medicine.
Everyone (mostly guys) thinks they know the rules of calling "Shotgun." The most recent debate was regarding the timeframe when shotgun can be called. Is it when you are on your way to the car or is it when you actually see the car? This website (LINK) creates a solid set of rules for the game of Shotgun. So when can you call shotgun? You must be on the way to the car and you must be outside. That's the way I used to play growing up, but then people changed it to when you can actually see the car. Debates anyone?
And I had a special request from Amy to put up a couple pictures of our Halloween tree. Joanne and I are quite proud of it (despite others' criticisms). Check it out! Great improvements since last year.

Love the tree - very festive - who knew there were actual Halloween ornaments.

it is because of tidbits like this that i have a serious addiction to the "good times" blog. i can go caffeine-free any day of the week and not have a problem, but take your blog away for a few days and i start to twitch.
I definitely have a debate!!! Shotgun only applies when you are in the same structure or area as your car and you can see it!! It makes more sense. Let's say we are leaving a Dodger game and we parked in BFE, are you telling you call shot gun once you have the passed through Blue exit gates. The car is probably a mile away and you're saying that is a legal shotgun...I think NOT!!! Besides, it simplifies all of the silly rules about inside "deeds", outside "deeds", hiking, attached garages... I mean come on!!! I think the author just needed more materials for his handbook. Keep shotgun pure!!! Also, the correct terminology is "Not bitch" not "Not back-center" everybody knows that. Anyway, great post.
Oh yeah.... What the hell is a halloween tree!?!?!
