April, May and June 2011



In case tomorrow is too hectic, here are the rest of the challenge compilation videos.

April 2011



May 2011



June 2011



These videos will be referenced in the future, but for now they are up. I hope you enjoy them. In the future I will try to develop better video material. I'm also thinking about including a written-out list of completed challenges and restaurant addresses.

Maybe that's too ambitious.

Something Different


The format of this blog takes on a very repetitve course. It's usually: "XYZ goes here, eats large item of food, shocks onlookers, leaves." That's the short version. My write-ups are much longer than that.

Some months back I thought about using slideshows to vary the content. After one slideshow, the concept was shelved. Maybe it seemed like a lot of work. In the interest of variety, the slideshow idea will be given new life.

In this post and the next, I will include slideshows highlighting all the food challenges completed in the first half of 2011. It might give the reader a better sense of what I eat on a month-to-month basis. My stream of consciousness usually jumps from one year to the next seamlessly. Most of my stories do not obey chronology so it's hard to gauge what's happening in reality.

The end of July will bring another slideshow, and there will be one video for every month to close out 2011 assuming I stay in this activity.

So, here are the video links.

January 2011



February 2011



March 2011



The videos for April, May, and June 2011 will debut in the next post.

It's a new step. Sometimes that's what you need most.

Moving Pictures

Generally, when you come to this website you are hit with a barrage of photos. That's been the track record.

I realize it's time to try something new. Gotta keep things fresh. Instead of just posting up a stream of photos, I'm considering creating video slideshows of the food I consume to post on YouTube.



This is just a sample video of a visit I paid to Hometown Buffet for their $5 weekend breakfast special early in 2010. It's a collection of about a dozen photos. There was nothing really special about this particular meal. $5 is an unbeatable bargain for an unlimited amount of food... even if it isn't haute cuisine. I know two guys who incessantly debate the quality of Hometown's food. Thankfully, it's pretty tough to screw up breakfast. I like it there.

Come to think of it... today's a weekend, isn't it?

Bottom line: more of these slideshows are on the way!
