Sky Mall Catalog

I flew out to Portland last week to apartment hunt. My impression of the city was really favorable, so I am getting excited about the move.

My cultural readjustment is progressing steadily. My little brother has shown me that I am really behind on trends on the internet, and it is going to take a while to catch up on all the movies I haven't seen.

On the flight home from Portland, I was flipping through the Sky Mall Catalog (always good for killing about 20 minutes). I found a product I liked.

Automatic Cereal Dispenser
With the automatic Breakfix Cereal Dispenser, fixing the day's first meal will never again be a messy, time consuming chore. Breafix uses the same principles as a coffee-maker, dispensing pre-measured portions of cereal with a touch of a button - no mess, no fuss. Controlled portions also help to keep pounds off. Looks great in your kitchen and cleans in a snap. A healthy gift for the whole family - the kids will love it! Only $79.99!

I do agree that making cereal is a "time consuming chore", but I feel sorry for the person that hasn't yet figured out how to pour cereal in a bowl. I don't know about the weight loss claims, though. Couldn't you just get a big bowl and push the button twice?

Back in the USSA

Well, I am back in Kansas. I have waited about a week to write anything on here just because the whole readjustment was a bit strange at first. Over the past couple of days I have finally started to feel comfortable here again.

I am still not quite used to all the TV channels. So many channels and nothing to watch. There was a show on the other day called "101 Things That Have Been Removed From the Human Body". I caught it at #45, which was a Matchbox Racing Car. It also seems that anyone that is either emotionally disturbed or a complete idoit has his/her own reality show now. Watching basketball and football has been nice, though.


Wednesday I am flying out to Portland to look for an apartment and then I will come back here on Sunday. Right now I am planning on driving out there later this month, but that still seems a ways off.
