It’s cold!  How cold?  Checkout my newspaper from yesterday morning:

Is that crazy or what?! Stay warm!

The big question: Did Beyonce lip-sync? Let’s watch and see:

I don’t know. I still need more proof.

For a weatherman, Al Roker has had one hell of a career.  Good for him. Yesterday he became the first reporter to interview newly inaugurated President Obama. To celebrate Al Roker, I made this video called, “Al Roker: A career of firsts,” Watch.

Have a nice day.

That was a good weekend!  Cara and I drove out to the Hamptons.  The weather was great!  We had a lovely dinner at Vine Street Cafe on Saturday night.  Here’s what I ate, with full descriptions:  Appetizer:  Ahi Tuna Tartare…seaweed-radish salad, tamari, wasabi, crispy won tons.  Salad:  Warm Heirloom Beans…frisee, roasted peppers, fennel, basil, evoo.  Entrée:  Bombolotti “Crema Di Gorgonzola”…Peas, tiny homemade sausage meatballs, roasted peppers. Dessert:  Sticky toffee pudding…almond brittle, mocha ice cream & toffee sauce.  We ate there this past summer.  At that time our table was located over an air conditioner grate.  I was freezing!  This time, you guessed it, we ended up with the same exact table!  Except now the heat was on!  They placed a menu over the grate but by the end of the meal I was sweating!  It was a small price to pay for such a great meal!

The next day for lunch we ate at La Fondita.

Green arrow: chorizo quesadillas
No arrow: pork tacos

I had some pork tacos and my favorite, chorizo  quesadillas!  We ate outside!  It was getting chilly!  But again, so worth it.  I usually hit up this place in the summer but the crowds keep me away.  What a treat!

Now it’s back to baked chicken.  Ha ha.

Our first lady unveiled a new hairstyle yesterday.  She’s sporting some lovely bangs.  2013 is all about change and being the best “you,” you can be.

Not to be outdone, today President Obama unveiled his new hairstyle.

Have a great weekend.

If there is any justice in the world Lance Armstrong will be Manti Te’o’s next girlfriend.  Ha ha.  What a weird story.  His girlfriend was a hoax but another player met her?  When did he know she wasn’t real?  Did he go along with her death to gain sympathy/popularity?  Or is he just the most gullible person in the world?  I haven’t been this fascinated with football since the Chicago Bears’ Super Bowl Shuffle.

Lance was stripped of his bronze Olympic medal today.  If you’re in the market for a used trophy case, I’d start driving to Austin, Texas now.  His interview with Oprah airs tonight.  I don’t want to watch it but I’ll probably end up watching it.  It’s such a shame. Lance’s career has inspired so many of our great cyclists like…ahhhh…ummmm…I’ll have to get back to you on this one.

A 51-yead-old Washington state woman smothered her boyfriend, with her breasts, during a drunken fight at their trailer park.  The boyfriend died!  You could make the old “what a great way to go” joke.  But, ugh, there’s nothing funny about this story!  I’m going to place a warning call to Mad Men’s Christina Hendricks’ husband right now.

Have a nice day.

If you ever hear me complain about my 2004 Honda Element, please remind me it could be worse.

Ha ha.  I can’t believe this thing is still on the road.  I was doing some channel surfing last night.   “The Big Chill” was on.  I love William Hurt’s Porsche!

I don’t think I could fit any part of my body in this car, ha ha.  That reminds me, I had a dream last night I was jammed into a very small public transportation train.  I was in a small compartment.  As we made more stops, more people got on.  My compartment filled up fast, I guess, because I’m so big.  At the next stop, my compartment was so packed in and looked so funny, people couldn’t get on.  One guy on the platform took my photo!  How’s that for a dream?  I think I’m telling myself it’s time to lose weight.  Or I could be telling myself I needed to wake up.

Cara and I went to a wake and a funeral this past Sunday/Monday.  Cara’s Aunt Eileen passed away.  I met her a few times, she was really nice.  Eileen and Jimmy raised three great kids.  It was a nice send off.

R.I.P. Aunt Eileen

 

How was my weekend? Good, not great. It was very fast!  I got a flu shot.  The drug store only had 12 shots for the whole day. Sorry young and elderly, you snooze you lose! Bobby doesn’t want to get sick!  Ha ha.  The joke was on me…24 hours later I noticed my arm was bruised and swollen.

That’s what I get for trying to save money.  Stay away from used flu shots!

I went to the North Shore Animal League to check out some dogs.  I couldn’t find one.  It’s sad because they all need homes.  But I need a hypoallergenic dog.  I need a schnauzer.  I had a schnauzer when I was a kid.  His name was Max.

What a good guy.  Back in the day, didn’t they used to give away dogs by the box load?  You’d walk around and some kids would be giving away a box of dogs.  Now you have to pony up $800!  Thanks a lot, Bob Barker!
