Kill Me

If I hear that John Cougar Mellencamp / Chevy commercial of "This Is My Country" one more time, I might just get out my dress blues.

Ok, Baylor Lost. I've Moved On

I Don't Know

No Way

I didn't know there was actually an invention called Chicken Fried Bacon. That's more fat grams than I consume in a year. Jules: Pigs are filthy animals. I don't eat filthy animals.

I would eat the actual rat for $1.7 million. And the most interesting part is that he has a live in aupair. Hey, now. Story here.
