1. Danger dogs.
The Tijuana delicacy -- a hot dog wrapped in bacon, fried, and topped with mayo -- has made its way to San Diego and Los Angeles, sold from carts outside stadiums, clubs, and wherever hungry drunks congregate. See also:

2. Jersey breakfast dogs.
An East Coast derivative with scrambled eggs and melted cheese.

3. Surfing Teahupoo, Tahiti.
Unbelievable swells that roll over a shallow coral reef. Catch a wave and you're flying; bail and you're bleeding.

4. Giving a buddy a kidney.
You only need one. Hopefully.

5. Black Cat espresso from Intelligentsia Coffee & Tea.
A triple. Note the exceedingly heavy body, with chocolate, caramel, and dried-fruit notes. Also note that you're vibrating. That means it's working. intelligentsiacoffee.com.


The list is cool.

No way. Kiefer Sutherland is a total d*ck. I met him on the set of The Sentinel, which I was doing some extra work for. He sucks.

Wow! That Jersey Breakfast Dog sounds awesome! Almost worth the clogged arteries. On another note........Hey Khyber, I can't tell whether those sailors on the SS Clap are happy to see Svetlana or not. Laughing Laughing

4. An entire Beijing roast duck from Quanjude with fresh plum sauce and scallions on the thinnest of pancakes and all the fat.

5. A giant fresh Sheboygan, Wisconsin deli bratwurst soaked in local beer and onions and then grilled to perfection, sprinkled with shredded, aged Monroe, Wisconsin Colby cheese with German mustard slapped on and wedged into a fresh Kaiser roll.

A fried flathead catfish, largemouth bass, crappie, and bluegill. Love dat' fried freshwater fish. (actually very tasty, unlike this smelly tasteless seafood around here in the market places and supermarkets)

There are nice freshwater fishing places all over such as lakes and spring fed streams in Korea and yes, they got American largemouth bass in these waters. Where can you get the fish bait such as Earth worms?

Where is the good KC strip steak and filet mignon? I want to eat that too.

Good lasagna and chili is die for too. Anyone know where?

Did I mention that flying places to see the world is worth it too since flying is hard on your body and you must do it to get places far away? Uh, you don't want to be constantly jetset like those biziness people. They shorten thier lives from all that jetlag and stresses jet travel puts on your body. Just once or twice a year for me is enough.

Riding in a limo with Traci Lords, Jenna Jamesson, Charlie Sheen and Robert Downey Jr. with Whittney Houston driving.

That'll shorten your life real fast!!

Ha!

Dating Korean women. The stress is guaranteed to shorten your life. If they don't kill you, a speeding scooter surely will. Very Happy
