• When hair meant something

  Oh, how I long for the days when Smitty had a perm, did the leg kick and headtoss while playing his keyboard and had those crazy-spinning, metrosexual dancers bouncing around the stage on the Change Your World tour.

  Drop the praise and worship stuff, Smitty. Come home.

• 34 double cheeseburgers

  There's something very empowering about pulling up to the McDonald's drive-thru window, ordering 34 double cheeseburgers and comparing the look on the cashier's face with the one I imagined I would see. It's like being able to tell the future.

  Big props go out to the Dayton Mickey D's, the tattooed lady behind the register and her two burger guys. You fed the Rhea House for $37.15 and did so much quicker than I expected for an 11:20 p.m. order. Elapsed time between order being placed and completed: 12 minutes. That gets a big boo-yah from me.
