My wife recently bought me a can of Stewie’s Mind Erase Elixir (SMEE) and I finally got around to trying it yesterday. It’s an energy drink with guarana, ginseng, etc. The can is yellow so for some reason I expected something tasting and looking like Mountain Dew. Instead, it’s reddish-pink and tasted like carbonated cherry Robitussin. You definitely don’t buy this for the taste. I think this is the first energy drink I have ever had and my co-worker told me they all pretty much taste crappy. It was $1.99 for this can of SMEE and it was almost worth it just so I could put the empty can on top of my monitor at work. They also have a red can of Stewie’s Domination Serum - THAT one is probably yellow.

Here is another cool image generator found at The Generator Blog - this time it’s the Einstenin Chalkboard Generator. Be sure and browse through the saved images that other people have done - some of them are pretty funny.

Ok, this is freakin’ sweet. It’s a chat system that integrates with Google Maps so you can see where the people you are chatting with are located. They threw in some AJAX goodness, and they have a recipe for a sweet chat system. You can also share maps with other chatters but I didn’t try it.

So, we went to the 2005 NC State Fair this past week - what fun! Here is a food vendor we happened upon:

Shark Kabobs and Gator Kabobs….YUM! I was with you for all the rest - even crabcake burgers, but Shark and Gator Kabobs??? But it gets better - from the state known for pulled pork BBQ and “Pig Pickins” comes Pig Butts on a Stick:


I didn’t actually see a pig butt on a stick….I was too afraid to see what they actually looked like. If anyone has Photoshop skillz, feel free to send in what you think they would look like (I imagine Porky Pig’s rump on a stick).

Man, I wish I had this kind of time/creativity. This guy created a 3D version of the duck from Nintendo’s Duck Hunt game.

Jonathan Coulton has released an amazing cover of Sir Mix-a-lot’s Baby Got Back. Hearing an average white guy crooning lines like “my home boys tried to warn me” is flat-out hilarious.

While there, make sure you check out W’s Duty also and grab some of his other music he’s got available for free download - I highly recommend Ikea, and Mandelbrot Set (among others).
