So i just got back from a potluck dinner with my fellow pacemakers (our
school’s a cappella group) and oh it was marvelous fun. Many a dish was
sampled and we even played Taboo! But we played it all dorky medical
style, where if the word was allergies, the person was like beta
blockers, inflammation, and so on and so forth. We tried to work
medical terms into every card.So random thought: Has anyone out there ever tried something that was
not say specifically designated human food? I mean, i am thinking that
every kid tries pet food at some point in his or her life right? or was
it just me?I remember i used to eat dog biscuits with butter on them when i was a
little kid, like as a regular snack. I am pretty sure my brother did
too…i believe my reasoning was, hey the dog liked it, it must be good.I was a stupid child.
But anyway, i was dared the other day after telling this story to eat a
dog treat. Since the stupid child didnt exactly become a smart adult i
agreed. Now the treat decided upon was beggin strips.
You
remember these? The commercial would have a dog running around the
house going BACON BACON BACON BACON BACON! Weird, cuz i do the same
thing.Beggin’ Strips slogan is “Dog’s don’t know it’s not bacon!” Newsflash: Dogs are retarded. Mine used to eat her own vomit, and wag her tail while she did it. I’ll be the one to decide if this stuff tastes like bacon or not.
I know these snacks aren’t made for human consumption, but while I
was in the store the ingredients list looked pretty tame so I wasn’t
too concerned. Somehow I had missed one extremely dubious word sitting
there all by itself. “MEAT”. That’s all it says… meat.Meat is a pretty large umbrella. Beef is meat. Pork is meat.
Horses, monkeys, and allegedly Arby’s roast beef are meat.SO long story short, The bitter nastiness literally got worse with every chew, and I was
overcome by the urge to go in the backyard and eat grass until it was
all out of me.So dont dare me too do stuff please. Temptation is my only weakness
And here is a picture of Indira Gandhi hugging a koala bear, which is on my list of things to do before i die
Wowie zowie i have been so half assed about this thing lately. And
for that I apologize, What with the studying and the working out in the
gym during what used to be my usual blogging time, and not having
comments to respond too, keeping this updated has been hard.So in a plea for comments and to get this puppy rolling again, if
anyone wants to send me interview questions—serious, wacky, in
between—I will answer them to the best of my ability. I figure this
way i can practice giving one interview while NOT wearing an orange
jumpsuit and trying to look remorseful in front of Diane SawyerThose of you who read this and are not xanga members, go ahead and
just email me and I will post question and response. Lets have some fun
with this, eh?-J

Go to any zoo in Australia. People are actually employed to carry koalas around for the petting/holding amusement of children. Also, some zoos have “get your picture taken with a koala!” booth–you stand there, they put one in your arms, and you struggle to look like it’s not really fucking heavy and smile.
ps – I’m above your comment pandering. You know I’ll do it anyway, questions or no.
OMG, eww Josh, I can’t believe you ate this recently. Remind me never to share a drink w/you. *wink wink* j/k! At least now, I know that just b/c dogs eat something, doesn’t mean I should either. Haha. . . tnx for explaining stuff in physio! Just wanted to let you know that you do a good job!!
Fyi: My dog, Sugar, has way too high taste to ever have eaten that stuff. We tried buying doggie treats such as Beggin’ Strips for her a coupla times in the past, and each time she rejected it. Apparently she has taste buds in common with us humans, ’cause anything that makes our mouth water is what makes her mouth water as well.
This is totally off topic but I had to tell you–my mom’s surgeon is you + 25 years. Seriously, it was ridiculous…I was like “Josh, I mean Dr. Stricker…” <Twilight Zone theme>
ew.
josh, i dare you to….;)
