stock

someone wanted to see the cans that i actually have to use instead of collect so heres my stock... if you dont know what i use these for then you arent going to know.

ouch

if you know me, you know that i LOVE spicy foods. if you dont know me, read through this journal and youll soon realize that i LOVE spicy foods. im not talking the average spicy which can be found at your local grocery store. not the "spicy" doritos, not the "hot salsa" from pace and not even the "911" (pathetic) chicken wings from hooters. im talking flamethrower hot hot hot! you see, peppers are rated on a scale called the scoville scale... a typical bell pepper rates at zero. jalapeno is at 2,500 to 5,000. the HOTTEST pepper on the list is the red savina habanero, ranking in at a hefty 350,000. (I dont care what you say, there is no pepper out there hotter than a habanero... no "custom hybrid", no "secret thai" pepper that was "just discovered" or whatever you may have heard. do your research!) The bottle of red powder you see below is produced by a guy named Blair. He makes some of the hottest hot sauces in the world, which contain pepper extract in order to make them even hotter. One of his famous sauces is called "Blairs mega death" and is on the scoville scale at 550,000 scoville units. this powder i obtained today is regular ground habanero (hot as hell already for most of you) but to top it off, the powder is sprayed directly with extract bringing it to the same level as the mega death sauce. see why it comes with the skull keychain and the warning on the label? ;)i tried a PINCH of this over a few spoonfulls of white rice today...... FUCK..... if after reading everything above you still dont get how insanely hot this stuff is, then i urge you to come sample it. it feels like a cross between someone stabbing your tongue with a million needles at once and then holding a crack-torch lighter to it. it doesnt go away with milk very easily either. in order to get the burning to be brought back down to something i could handle normally i had two full glasses of milk, a slice of cheese and i scraped my tongue off against my teeth for about ten minutes. it still hurt though.why do i do this you ask? well... its a rush. peppers cause your body to release endorphins which in turn cause you to feel good. i dont quite know how this works but its probly out there on the internet somewhere.

cans

my ever growing spraycan collection.. these are all pre-1991 and are pretty valuable. yeah believe it or not there is a collectors market for these things... these are all soon to go on ebay. i might narrow them down to the good full ones though.

straw

got bored at ruby tuesdays so i linked a bunch of straws together... the pic doesnt do it justice. it took about ten seconds to get any liquid to go through it!

Mallows!

holy shit its that time of year again!! multi-colored sugar-coated sugar/marshmallows that you can bite the heads off of!!!! this display stopped me dead in my tracks...

friend in need

if you know my friend dustin, youve probably seen his cell phone. i keep telling him that its time to upgrade. so i think judging by the picture below, you will think the same. hopefully some day he will join the "color screened cell phone users" of the world... :)

random

just thought this shot was cool... this is off my girlfriends new coach purse... cute little keychain... nice pic for a "cameraphone" ;)

chips

dear god look waht i found!!!!

im sur eyour all going "yes jamie, those are doritos..." well people, these arent just any ordinary doritos. these are SALSA fucking VERDE!!!! these existed about ten years ago and they were my ultimate favorite. they have the perfect blend of spices and arent too hot but are just hot enough to keep you satisfied and wanting more. for some reason they discontinued them at the height of my love for them and i stopped seeing them alltogether. i called frito-lay multiple times to try to find out what had happened to my beloved salsa verde and no one was able to help me.... until a few years ago when someone told me that there wasnt a big enough market for southwestern style foods up in the northern states. thats so bullshit. myself alone buying these doritos is enough of a market! anyways, after numerous anonomous phone calls to frito lay telling them that there is a fan-base up in minnesota, just last year i saw them at the corner store near my work in the small 50 cent bags. i got really excited but this wasnt enough. it was one store that i saw them in and they were small bags that left you wanting way more. well folks, tonight is the night! salsa verde is finally back in full force, everywhere, in the big bags!!! WOOOOOOOOOORD!!!! go get some!!!! keep the market for them up here!by the way, anyone remember smoky red BBQ doritos? those were awesome too but i honestly dont think they are coming back ever.

Car Show!!!

Here are my pics of the three best cars at the Minneapolis Auto Show....First, this is the Dodge Challenger concept that should be coming out next year. My dad will own one of these.








Second, the Chevrolet Camaro concept.... Chevy is waiting to see how the Challenger does before even saying if this will become a real car....


Best for last, this is the Chrysler ME Four-Twelve, which means twelve cylinders, and four turbos. zero to sixty in 3.2 seconds... its just a concept and will never go into production.

peppers!

just playin around with my cameraphone again... these are re-sized from 2 megapixel images.the green and red are jalapenos (peppers for pussies), the orange is a habanero.... the hottest pepper ever... i dare you to go try one :)
