- General Mills (not that General Mills) is planning on big things in 2012 for Cheerios. How about some peanut-butter flavored Multi Grain Cheerios and Dulce de Leche Cheerios? Sound good to you? I think the PB ones will be good but not sure about the DdL.
- It still boggles my mind trying to figure out how the entire population DPRK who attended the fun-eral of shithead leader Kim Jong-Il was weeping and/or crying uncontrollably. They were ruled under an iron fist of a dictator that no one else will miss. My guess is they were forced to show the emotions or else. Pretty ridiculous - and comical. I haven't seen acting that bad since the last Nicolas Cage movie came out - or in every Nicolas Cage movie ever!
- Alaska State Troopers is a show you should probably already be watching, if not for your preexisting interest in reality police shows for the video portraying the landscape and culture of the Great White North. It's pretty damn amazing how some (read: most) of the population lives up there. Definitely a place to go on my Bucket List.
- New York, Alaska, and Wisconsin charge the most for a pack of cigarettes in the United States. NYers pay on average, $10 a pack while our counterparts in Alaska pony up, on average, $9.10 a pack. In Cheese country, you're $9.00 lighter in the wallet after buying a pack. Wanna know what $9 can buy you?
- This black New Balance shirt at 6pm.com - $8.99
- This sweet Ice Age t-shirt - $5
- A Marled Confetti Pom Beanie at Urban Outfitters to keep your head warm - $6.99
- For the ladies, a FULL TILT Printed Dress from tillys.com - $7.97
- Three of these neat appetizer plates from cb2.com - $2.95 each
- Metallica's new EP, Beyond Magnetic, on iTunes - $3.99
- The Islanders are the worst team in the Eastern Conference. They've played 34 games and are last in goals scored (75), last in assists (133), and tied for last in shutouts (0). They do lead the league in something though, empty net goals allowed (10)

Nine dollars can buy two pounds of Sir Loin Steak which can serve atleast six people if cooked at home.
Peanut butter Cheerios can be good for picking from a ziplock bag at work but with milk? I am not so sure.
Another amusing but ever informative blog sir.. :) Loved the part about the cig prices, my hubby smokes and he has gone to rolling his own cuz they cost so much.. hope you have a happy and safe NYE.. our plans are to celebrate our son's 18th bday! Cheers!!
Nice header.
And damn, I thought we were the highest for cigarette prices.
Here's a scary thought: back when I was working hardcore retail (mid 80's thru mid 90's), cigs were about $2.25 a pack; and a carton was about $27. I had customer who would buy 7 cartons of smokes (Merit 100's and Merit Menthol 100's ) and spend $130 for them.
I'm sure those same 7 cartons would now cost about $800.
