Just to kick start that diet of yours


I consumed about 5000 plant lice on Friday. And I only drank 1 beer. Grrrrrreat.

In an NYT article, E.J. Levy finds that the The F.D.A. actually condones a certain percentage of “natural contaminants” in our food supply — meaning, among other things, bugs, mold, rodent hairs and maggots.


For example:

1. Tomato juice may average “10 or more fly eggs per 100 grams [the equivalent of a small juice glass] or five or more fly eggs and one or more maggots.”

2. Canned mushrooms may have “over 20 or more maggots of any size per 100 grams of drained mushrooms and proportionate liquid”

3. Just 10 grams of hops could have as many as 2,500 plant lice.

I'm honestly eating only pretzels for the next 10 days.

Why I Am Quitting Twitter.

I posted a picture of a famous pizza restaurant yesterday to my Twitter status from my iPhone, and I just went to click the link from my twitter page now using a real computer. This is the picture that was linked to my twitter status. It is not of the restaurant but of a stuffed animal Ninja Turtle wearing sunglasses. I've never taken this picture? WTF twitter. I think I quit you now.

S, is that you?


S, I seriously thought that was you (or your triplet) for a sec. At Barbie's 50th Anniversary show @ Fashion Week.



Here are more attendees. How CREEPY is that child (?) on the left. Definitely having nightmares of goblins tonight.

It's all so clear now!
