Breakfast of Champions Past...

People always ask me, "Why do you have so many disgusting pictures of food on your facebook page?" I always tell them, "I'm paying homage because I can't eat that shit anymore. It kills me." My food photos are like a candle burning in memory of my gluttonous past. I remember every delectable morsel like they were my children. About two years ago I joined Weight Watchers and lost 35 pounds. I made a promise to myself back then, that I'd try to stay healthy for my family. I wanted to be around to watch them grow up. Haven't gained a pound since. Before I had kids I was somehow able to consume food like this on quite a regular basis. Now that I'm older it's just not that easy anymore. Goes right to my hips. I hope to someday enjoy this breakfast of champions once again with my daughters. Maybe just once... If it doesn't kill me first. Oh and I almost forgot. The luscious treat pictured above is comprised of the following, kind of natural and almost organic ingredients:

1 mostly beef patty grilled to charcoaled perfection
1 slice of ALL AMERICAN Cheese - melted
3 slices of crispy, porkolicious bacon
1 Stop-N-Shop fresh egg - sunny side up
3 squirts of grade A Heinze Ketchup (insert awkward flatulence noise here)
salt and pepper
1 sesame seed bun - lightly toasted

My hunger pains are most certainly Out-Numbered...

    Maybe if you indulge too often - you and your daughters - the time of being so 'amazing and beautiful' could be limited Jason. Care please!

    Eat that sandwich already and stop crying about it! For pete's sake it has the entire farm animal collection...Let's call it "The Yasgur with Cheese." If you swallow that bad boy it will probably make you really, really happy. And everyone knows that happiness is the key to true longevity. Namaste.

    Ah, yes, Jason, those wonderful breakfasts! I recall years ago attending a rancher's breakfast near Bakersfield, California, and I still remember the menu: oatmeal, breakfast steak, bacon and eggs, sausage, toast, hotcakes with delicious syrup, orange juice, and coffee. I ate everything on the menu, and I cleaned my plate, too, by God! (I was a proud member of The Clean Plate Club during WWII!)

    The ranchers? The only kind of horse those big ol' boys could've ridden would have been Belgian Percheron or Clydesdale.

    You know what, Jason, I still miss those breakfasts...but wouldn't eat one today on a bet. I don't want the 60+ pounds back I've lost over the past 14 years. Besides, most of that stuff gives me the....oh, never mind, you really don't want to know.

    Ciao (sorry if that sounds a bit too much like "chow"),

    Son, as I've told you in the past, everything in moderation! Something like that, once a month, is ok, if your body can take it.

Things That Suck About Having Kids... Part One

Image
Warning: Please do NOT read this post if you think your kids are perfect, if you are easily offended by inappropriate language or if you have a shitty sense of humor about your children. Continue reading only if you admit that your kids are annoying or that they have sucked at any point in time. I love being a dad. That much I can tell you. I can list a number of reasons that would support that statement but for now I choose not to. What happens to be on my mind lately is how much having kids can suck. I'm not saying that having children sucks all of the time but rather a majority of the time. I know that most parents think their kids are annoying. I know that most parents tend not to talk about this in public. I also know what parents think are annoying about their kids. How do I know this? Because I asked. This is only a small sampling of what you said: The fact that I have to fight with them to take a shower. They act like I am asking for a limb rather than just asking them to c...

The Reset Button...

When you hear a baby crying, do you clench your teeth? Or do you listen until you hear the breath of life, exploding from its tiny lungs. Do you appreciate all that it is worth to you. Do you appreciate all that it is worth to it . When you see a person that needs help, do you turn away? Or do you extend your hand? When you feel overwhelmed by life, do you cry because you can't handle it on your own? Or do you laugh because you know you don't have to? Have you ever tried for just one day, to not judge anyone? Or anything? Life starts right now. Every single day. Over and over and over again. Just for today, wake up with a new set of eyes. Just for today, wake up with a new set of ears. Just for today, judge no one and help anyone. Just for today, give until it hurts. There are 365 days in a year and you only have to live them one at a time. Hit the reset button. It's not as hard as you might think.

The List...

Men are simple creatures. We like steak and Doritos and tools. We don't like satin sheets or hairspray. We despise area rugs and/or tapestries and we absolutely loathe speed walking. We also like Football. We like to watch it uninterrupted on Sundays. And then this happens... Sunday afternoon 4:13pm. Two minutes before kickoff. Chargers VS Jaguars. Out-Numbered - All I ask is that you keep them upstairs until halftime. Wife - Fine. But I haven't had a moment to myself this whole weekend you know. Out-Numbered - I know. I love you. Wife - Whatever. Out-Numbered - Hey. Wife - Yes? Out-Numbered - Can you bring me some snacks? Wife - Go fuck yourself. Out-Numbered - Thanks Hon. She walks up the stairs. 3 Year Old - Daddy? Out-Numbered - Fuck me! Yes baby? 3 Year Old - Can you play supermarket with me? Out-Numbered - I'm sorry baby. Not right now. 3 Year Old - Why? Out-Numbered - Because Daddy is watching football. 3 Year Old - Can't you pause it? Out-Number...
