It’s surprising to me that the United Nations, in all their conflicts with waring nations and nuclear rebels, they haven’t looked into warm nuts as a possible solution.
Sure, you’ve read the above paragraph over and over a few times and asked yourself very honestly, "I’m not sure I’m buying Pauly’s belief that warm nuts could save the World." Well, pull up a chair and I’ll let you in on a little secret to which I became acquainted yesterday while traveling cross country on a 747 airplane.
Warm nuts are awesome.

You may think I’m lying, but today’s post has been affected by early morning travel plans.
Initially, if you had told me a year ago that on today’s date, that all my plans for the most amazing Friday post in the world would be affected by early morning travel plans I would probably first ask you if such travel plans were worth all the chaos. Would I be traveling to an exotic locale like Tahiti or Hawaii? Would I be traveling in first class accomodations? Would I be served caviar and waited on hand and food? If you had told me ten months ago that on today’s date all such things would not be a reality, yet today’s post would be affected by early morning travel plans, well, I probably would have said something to you like, “God-dangit, Sister Mae Woodley! Technology has sullied the world from here until the second coming!”

(The following conversation took place on Wednesday, March 23rd at the Starbucks on Little Santa Monica in Beverly Hills at approximately 2:34PM PST.)
Him: I’m thinking about selling t-shirts with Tobey Maguire’s face on them.
Her: Oh, really.
Him: Yeah, what do you think?
Her: You’re going to sell t-shirts with Spiderman’s face on it? You’ll so get sued.
Him: Not SPIDERMAN’s face. Tobey Maguire’s face.
Her: Tobey Maguire IS Spiderman.
Him: And James Leer.
Her: James Leer?
Him: From that movie Wonder Boys…?
Her: Oh, whatever. He’s Spiderman.
(A long thoughtful beat, then-)
Him: Maybe James Franco. Maybe I’ll sell t-shirts with James Franco’s face on them.

I once worked in this office building.
Yes, I know — let’s get past that startling revelation for the moment. Yes, there was a point in my life where I actually drove to a parking garage, got out of my car, took an elevator to a certain floor in a tall building, walked down the hallway, entered an office area, sat down at a desk, and you know — worked.
In addition to the usual strangeness and random goings on that take place in said office building, there was an even stranger situation going on near the lavatories. Every time I would enter the bathroom, I would find a crumpled up piece of toilet paper right there at the foot of the door.

Aaah, cookie dough.
Aaah, dough de cookie.
I remember back in the 80’s when cookie dough first hit the supermarkets and people were going crazy over stuffing un-cooked dough and sugar and chocolate chips into their mouths just for the sake of it.
Recurerdo en los 80’s, cuando dough de cookie romper los supermercados y los gente fue ir loco de stuffar un dough de cookie y sugar y chipso de chocolat en las bocas simplamente por que es lo sake.
Then, of course, Ben & Jerry’s jumped on the cookie dough bandwagon, ensnaring most of society with their promises of un-cooked dough and sugar and chocolate chips with the ultimate promise that we would not get salmonella poisoning or balloon up to the size of a house.
