How to Get Free Food

Today, I was surprised to find myself with three seperate dinners given to me by three different friends here in my ward: Tortilla Soup, Ravioli, and Pork with vegetables.



This can happen for you too! Here's how:
  • Throw frisbees at girls' windows while they are just sitting down to eat. Then knock on their door to retrieve it and apologize. Then say, "boy, that looks good..."
  • Tell good cooks that a loved one has recently passed away.
  • Remind people that you are leaving town forever and act lethargic. Dinners will magically appear in tupperware at your doorstep.
  • Host a food drive, but then, exchange some of the good food for some cheap stuff in you cupboard.
  • Make friends with foreigners and tell them that you love the food from their culture.
  • Make food for others.

  1. Thank goodness none of your grandparents died for you to cash in. I can see you doing the cultural one and the frisbee one for sure. You are a lucky dog!

  2. I wonder how many of your Carriage Cove admirers have read this... I'm guessing that you believe not to have many. Then again, maybe you just thought it to be funny knowing that half a dozen admirers would in deed read this. :)

  3. I'm dying to know, which is the one you have not tried?

  4. Did you try Method #2 with the fish or is that the untried method?
    It's good to go after what you want! Most of the time, people would like to give it to you! :)

  5. That would have been legit Mom, but you're right. #2 was the untried method.

Rummi-"CUB" vs. Rummi-"CUBE"

The "Rummikub" Pronunciation Debate Affirmative Constructive: "Cub" For years, I have been a firm advocate and defender of the pronunciation, Rummi-"CUB".  The game box I grew up with spelled it, Rummicub  on the box. However, other productions of the game have variant spellings: Rummykub , Rummy Kube , Rummy Tiles , etc.  Based solely on box spelling, the game's true pronunciation is open to interpretation. Therefore, Rummi"cub" is equally acceptable to any other given pronunciation. Negative  Constructive : "Cube" My opponents argue that since the game originated over seas, we ought to respect and maintain its original pronunciation. Affirmative Rebuttal: Americanization of the Term When the game was brought to America and given Americanized rules, its name was also Americanized. Pronunciation loyalists then counter my rebuttal with, "there are lots of adopted foreign words that have retained their original pron...

The Secret Reason Why "Good Witch" Feels Emotionally Off

TL;DR It's the Botox. For the past 3 months, my wife, Stacia, and I have been watching  Good Witch  (via Netflix and Amazon Prime). Stacia adores winding down to "Hallmark-y shows." We can rely on Good Witch episodes to always resolve happily. The episodes are never too intense. The height of conflict revolves around things like someone's inability to locate the perfect spot to snap a romantic photo for a new tourism brochure. I consider my time watching these shows spouse bonding time , and emotional training. My favorite thing about watching feel-good shows with Stacia is getting to observe her facial reactions to the on-screen drama. When two people lean in for a long-anticipated kiss, Stacia tucks her knees into her chest and frowns with her forehead while lifting her chin and bottom lip. While I'm typically unable to suspend my disbelief, Stacia seems completely entranced by the various characters' emotions. Wishing I could join her in being swept aw...

Who's Got The Funk?

I am an amateur guitarist, and I've got no funk. My musical skills seem to lacking that special something . Great musicians have it . Those fortunate enough to have gotten hold of  it , create timeless hits. While musicians without it  fade into oblivion. After spending hours searching through Blues history websites and 1970's band documentaries online, I discovered what that special something  is thank to a (70% Man, 30% fish) character from the BBC show "The Mighty Boosh" named Old Gregg. He identified that  thing  as  The Funk ! But what exactly is The Funk ? Here is some dialogue from the show to help explain its origin and purpose: Old Gregg: You're a musician, yeah? Howard: Yes I am. Old Gregg: Butchya ain't very good, are ya? Howard: I'm one of the best in town. Old Gregg: Come on, I read your reviews. Hmm? You know what your problem is? Howard: What? Old Gregg: Ya ain't got the funk. You're all rigid. Hmm? You're l...
