It was the winner of their recent create a chip flavor contest. They picked 4 varieties of all the entries, put all 4 in production, and then consumers voted on their favorite and that one won, so it stays in production for a limited time. So it's not like they just said, hey let's make this flavor and see who buys it, it was the result of customer feedback as part of a marketing content, and that's waht people selected. This is the 3rd or 4th time they've done this over the past few years. -M Not so much that. I figured they did those like Mt Dew does. But that's still a very bizarre flavor combination to me. Actual food or a chip flavoring. |

Hell even McDonalds has he Chicken McGriddles now, which has that taste combo at its core, and they only do stuff that will sell nationally. -M |

Watching a M*A*S*H Marathon on the Sundance Channel and enjoying the old shows of that classic sitcom starring Alan Alda and Company.

Sitting in Pittsburgh International Airport, waiting for a flight to St. Louis before continuing on to Houston for two days of training for my new job.

Enjoying a nice cup of coffee while watching the Liverpool vs Watford football match. Really?! Are you a soccer fan? I'm not, but I live about a 20 minute drive from Watford. |

I'm off to my early morning workout and I don't sleep much neither ... so I'm hitting the weight room and swim a mile and after that get some coffee and back home.

I am, but as a recent convert rather than a lifelong fan. For years, I railed against soccer as being boring and unexciting with all those "nil-nil" draws and players flopping like fish out of water on the ground every time a stiff breeze blew by, but two things changed my mind. Both of my daughters played in our local youth soccer league (the younger one still does), so I started getting exposed to it, and one of the guys who reported to me at my last company had been an All-American soccer player in college and he was a really strong advocate for the sport. He suggested that I needed to pick a team and get to know the players so that I had a connection with the league, so I picked Swansea City, because they were the only team in Wales. Unfortunately, they are having a pretty rough year and look to be in the uphill fight against relegation, which is another concept that I love about the sport: if you don't play well, you go down to a lower league and the folks who played well there get a shot at the Premier League, rewarded for their success and effort. Over time, I've come to appreciate the artistry and skill of the players, so much so that I can easily sit down and watch a match between two squads I have no rooting interest in (I will also watch the German Bundesliga when it's on), but I haven't watched an NFL game in three seasons, even though I live in a rabid American football city. |

That's cool that you've gotten so into it. I'm not really a sports fan at all, but weirdly I do like American Football. I support the Jets, but will happily watch any two teams going at it. Football (or soccer) though, really leaves me cold. I also have terrible memories of being made to play it at school, freezing to death, running around a muddy field in shorts and a thin t-shirt. Hateful times! |

Trying to figure out why the cd/dvd pocket in my pc tower opens itself when I step away from the pc for a few minutes, but behaves while I'm on it.
Damn spooks.
