The Story.

Perhaps some of you know this already. There has been a GM commercial played during the 2008 Summer Olympics, and the song is, The Story, by Brandi Carlile. I thought the song is great.

One More Reason To Visit NYC.

Dang! Those lucky New Yorkers!!

C'mon, I Know This Song!

There is a cut of one song being playing between points at the Olympic Beach Volleyball matches which has been eluding me. It drives me nuts to remember the name of that song. The light bulb just goes on in my head...Cool, now I can relax and don't look constipated...It is at 2:09 mark. Ladies, enjoy it.

Inspired by this beauty and curious of this controversy, I went ahead and make one myself.

I cooled down the espresso (2 doubles) by pulled them straight into the room temp simple syrup, then into a martini shaker with ice. Shake it and serve. It was pretty good. No funny taste…

Another cop got in trouble for demanding free coffee...
