When I have Fast Food...

Mc Donald's - Best fries. Best Coke. I think they have a special mixture of Coke made just for Mc Donald's that compliments their salty menu with the perfect Coke recipe. Their straws are the best. Biggest straws in the fast food industry.

I just get some hamburgers at Mickey D's, but it's hard not to say those fries aren't incredible.

Jack in the Box - Best Chicken Strips. Best Ranch. Best Value Menu. Jack just might be considered my favorite fast food place because I like so many things there. Jumbo Jack. 99 cent Chicken Sandwich (actually 1.29). Eggroll. Those are my main recommendations.

Burger King - Whopper is really something special. I used to really think about how in the world could they only be charging 99 cents for that. I used to have a real tough time with that because it has so many toppings and it's a big burger.

BK's fries have too much batter on them for me. Their Chicken Sandwiches are also simple and satisfying.

I don't know what this french kid is saying, but whatever it is, it's got to be funny...

Earthquake in OC!!

Holy crap! Did you feel that?! I live on the bottom floor of a three floor apartment building and that earthquake felt like a tidalwave rolled through my living room... 8:39 pacific time tonight, 5.0, hitting Inglewood and Hawthorne area...lasted 15 seconds... 15 seconds of pure madness, havoc, terror and mayhem. Damn man, this is going to be classic.

Sunday Art...


Do you remember that old Run DMC song that came out in the 80s during Christmas time called "Christmas in Hollis?" How about the cover of that album, A Very Special Christmas? Well, the artist on that painting/ drawing was incredible.Keith Haring. You don't need to visit a museum today...

Read Marvel Comics for Free...


If you go to this website, you can read Marvel comics for free. I love the Hulk, Silver Surfer, Iron Man, Thor... some of that artwork is amazing. There used to be this legendary Spider Man artist who was incredible. Check out this photo.

Supermex...




Most of the posts so far have been about pizza and wings. That is really my specialty, but this week I am dropping a few Mexican food posts. First up, >Supermex. Went there with a good buddy, so we were able to sample everything the place had to offer.

When I measure a Mexican food place, I order a carne asada burrito. A great man once said, "You go to Italy, you get spaghetti. You go to France, you write poetry..." Well, when I go to a Mexican food place, I order a carne asada burrito.

Burrito was bomb. Love the guac on there. Great presentation.

This place also has some top notch chips and salsa. I would say Supermex's chips and salsa go toe to toe with any other chips and salsa out there. (On a side note, I do rank Chili's as one of the top chips and salsa out there. So keep that in mind.)

Don't go there expecting to get the world's greatest service in the world. These guys bring out the food. They are not there to listen to your life's problems, so get a fucking therapist for that.

Good food though.

Phenomenal Swag


Check out this blog dedicated to gear from the NBA. There is some great Blazers paraphernalia on there.

Good Day Cafe...



The Good Day Cafe is a quiet little spot around the corner from my apartment. It is only open for breakfast and lunch, closing at 3pm.

Everything here is incredible. They have a carrot ginger soup there that will blow your mind. Tasty sandwiches, soups, fries... everything made fresh using incredible ingredients. It's hard to screw up a club sandwich, but theirs is extremely satisfying.

Try any of their soups if the carrot ginger scares you.

Village Pizza in Big Bear..



Snowboarding season in Southern California is over, but whenever I head up to Big Bear I love to stop at Village Pizza and grab a large pepperoni to help me unwind from a long day of carving up the mountain.

There is something different about this pizza that makes it delicious. Maybe it is the fact that is prepared on top of a mountain. Maybe it is the fact that I am so starving from snowboarding that I devour the pizza like a T-rex. Whatever it is, Village Pizza kicks ass.



I have been there probably four or five times, and everytime it does not disappoint. The key to a good pizza is getting those pepperonis nice and crispy. These guys get it.

House of Brews...



House of Brews in Huntington Beach. I am a Buffalo Wing expert. I try Buffalo Wings everywhere I go. I will have Buffalo Wings for breakfast.

With that being said, these are without a doubt the best wings I have ever had. Feel free to disagree. But please try them first and then tell me a better place.

Best Buffalo Wings ever.

Their Meatball Pizza is also incredible. Beer is always cold. The game is always on. Their fries are also top notch. You can rely on good service there as well.

If you had $100,000 to play with in the Stock Market...


What would you do? This website allows you to invest $100,000 in the market and see how well you do with it. My annual return as of this post is 2.11%. Better not quit my day job.

Here is who has been good to me. Cigarette companies. Altria (...MO) and RJ Reynolds (RAI). They get their customers hooked young and for life. They have survived a number of lawsuits. They are a good business.

Edison International (EIX). One summer it was about 100 degrees for a week straight in Tustin. So I ran the A/C. When the bill came in I nearly crapped my pants. Then I thought about all those assholes in the Inland Empire and thought to myself, "These guys must pay a fortune to these guys at Edison." People can live without jewelry. They can't live without A/C.

Nike (NKE). I believe in Jordan.

Coors (TAP). Now I don't believe in Coors regular, but Coors Light... with the cold activated mountains... Handsome California Boy likes that.

Apple (AAPL). I work with high school kids. Ipods are not going away. I would suggest investing in a hearing device company, but I do not have a company to suggest yet. These damn kids are going to have some hearing problems. Let's make money off of that.

I also like Marvel (MVL), Spiderman, Hulk, Iron Man, Thor, Fantastic Four... that's money in the bank. And I like Costco (COST). People go crazy for that place. An addiction similar to crystal meth. I hope that helps you get started.

I am just trying to help you out...

Snipe

Here is another online thinking video game that I play on occasion. I believe that the brain is like a muscle and we need to get our reps in everyday to stay (mentally) in shape. The game is basically like a mix of marbles and pool.

Marble Madness Legend

First of all, this artwork is amazing. Second of all, this guy is unreal. I used to love Marble Madness. Click and see what I am talking about. Enjoy.

Pizza Shack

Pizza Shack is one of the greatest slices of pizza you can get in Orange County. I have been going here since before the remodel and i love it. All my friends used to make fun of me for going in here everyday until they tried it. Now they love it, too.

They have all the best video games, their food is incredible and their service is top notch. You won't see more interesting characters anywhere else in the world.

Pizza D'Oro


Pizza D'Oro has one of the best and biggest slice of pizza I have seen in a long time. I have a friend coming in from Sacramento just for a slice. I took a picture of it and put it up on my website and this person has lost their mind in search of this slice.

Super Tecmo Bowl


There have been some great websites dedicated to this game, but it seems like most have fallen apart or disappeared. The one I like to turn to now is
Super Tecmo Bowl.com. Check out all the articles and links. I just got a little lost in there myself to be honest with you.

Fulcher was without a doubt my favorite.

Chronotron



Check out this free creative thinking video game. You are a robot and you travel back in time.

I love time travel. One of my favorite movies is Back to the Future. I especially love part 2 and anything that has to do with hoverboards.


Surf City Pizza - Huntington Beach

Down there on Bolsa Chica and Heil. Love this pizza. Has the best crust. Nice and salty and different than most places. But damn man, this place seems like it is never open. I would love to go in and get a slice at like 1 pm on a Tuesday or Sunday afternoon or 3 pm or Monday Night Football and it never seems open. Love it there though...
