This was my bitch over the weekend, which I didn't get to post.
First, I didn't pass the 2nd part of my Real Estate exam so I have to retake it.
Second, work sucked big time over the weekend. I had to work ~20 hours Friday and Saturday combined. This usually isn't bad but when your stuck in a concession stand for that long its hot and stuffy and smells like crap.
Then, I tried to get talk my parents into letting me get a different job and I heard the lamest thing ever from my dad. I told him I wanted a different job and told him where it was (A rock-climbing gym about 30 minutes away from my house) and he said "Thats not a real job".
I freaked out at him for a second and said "What the heck do you count as a 'real' job then? Working in a [explicative] concession stand isn't a real job and working at a gym is a heck of a lot better. If I work there (at the gym) I will at least get some exercise and a lot better pay then working where I am now."
He said something like "I could get you to be a teller at the bank, that would be a better job". Which pissed me off so I just left the house and hung out with some friends for a few hours.
Sorry for the semi-long rant, I just had to vent a bit as I had a really crappy weekend.
Peace,
Pop Smith

yeah, okay, this thread is
Gay Discoing Hitler Approved.
just to bitch a bit, i'm finding myself starting to hate electric guitars. every single person in my hall on this floor (15 rooms or so) brought a frickin' electric guitar, except me and my roomie, and they play them as loud as they can everyday--which i wouldn't mind, if it wasn't the *same tune* all the time. each sounds exactly like the next: high-pitched, distorted, mangled beats. is it so much to ask for *one* acoustic? or some drums? or some other frickin' instrument to break the monotony? christ on the cross, it's annoying.
and for some reason, people forgot how to flush toilets.
*edit*
oh yeah:
i HATE rap. if you lived on my floor, you would to. >.<
*re-edit*
while i'm at it...
all you preachy vegetarians can bite me. i'm gonna eat meat until i die...then other things will eat my meat. the circle continues, suck a duck.

Rap and mice with balls, now there's two things that really suck. Did you have to dig way down deep into the misc. box of computer junk to find that old rolly mouse? You know, past the tangled mass of cords and burnt up hard drives.

Ghostly Green Brew
Serving Size: 6 Guinea Pigs.
Ingredients:
* 2 liter chilled ginger ale
* 1/2 gallon lime sherbet
Directions:
Allow sherbet to soften for about 1 hour in bottom of punch bowl. Pour ginger ale over and stir until all sherbet is dissolved. For a great Halloween treat, serve in small well-cleaned pumpkins with a face painted on it, add a straw!
Mucous Membrane Milkshake
Serving Size: 4 Mucous Mutants.
Ingredients:
* 2 c Buttermilk
* 2 scoops Vanilla ice cream
* 1/2 c Pineapple juice
* 4 tb Brown sugar
* 2 c Milk
Directions:
With an adults help, measure all of the ingredients, except the milk, into a blender. Then blend on medium speed until smooth and creamy. Add more ice cream if you like your mucus extra thick. Fill tall glasses with the mixture and refrigerate. Heat the milk in a small pan over medium heat until it begins to boil. Remove from the heat and let it cool until a film develops on its surface.
Using a wooden spoon, carefully scoop off the film and place some on top of each milkshake. If you need more mucus, just reheat the remaining milk and repeat this step. Blend chunks of pineapple into your milkshake (for phlegm balls) or red cherries (for blood clots)!
Rotting Pumpkin Nog
Serving Size: 10 rotten noggins.
Ingredients:
* 1 (29 ounce) can pumpkin puree
* 1 pint vanilla ice cream, softened
* 4 cups milk
* 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
* 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
* 1/4 teaspoon ground mace
* 1 cup whipped cream
* 1 pinch ground nutmeg
Directions:
In a blender or food processor, blend the pumpkin, ice cream, milk, cinnamon, nutmeg, and mace in batches. Pour into individual cups. Top with whipped cream and a sprinkle of nutmeg.
Sulfuric Acid Swig
Serving Size: 6 Sickly Swiggers.
Ingredients:
* 6 oz Lemonade, frozen concentrate - partially thawed
* 1/2 c Lemon juice
* 1 c Grapefruit juice - cold
* 2 qt Lemon sherbet
* 1 qt Club soda - cold
Directions:
In a large pitcher, mix together the lemonade concentrate, lemon juice and grapefruit. Add to this the amount of water required on the lemonade can. Pour the liquid into tall glasses, filling them halfway, and add a scoop of lemon sherbet to each. Fill the glasses with club soda and serve immediately. Just before serving, sprinkle the top of each glass with a pinch of lemon or lime-flavored powdered drink mix. Makes for a totally toxic-looking treat!
Bloody Eyeballs On The Rocks
Serving Size: 6 Thirsty Creeps.
Ingredients:
* 12 Radishes
* 7 Oz Jar pimento-stuffed Olives
* 46 Oz Can tomato juice
Directions:
You can see this drink is eye-deal on a hot day! This is a recipe for older Kids to make with an Adult's help. What you will need. Vegetable peeler, ice cube tray, tall glasses. Prepare these bloody eyeballs the day before you plan to serve them. With an adult's help, peel 12 radishes, leave thin streaks of red skin on them for blood vessels.
Use the tip of the vegetable peeler or small knife, carefully scoop out a small hole in each radish. Stuff a green olive, pimento side out, in each hole. Place 1 radish in each section of an empty ice cube tray. You may need to pare your eyeballs down a bit to fit the ice cube tray. Fill the tray with water and freeze overnight. Pour tall glasses 3/4 full of tomato juice and add a pair of eyeballs to each glass
Worm Burgers
Serving Size: 6 worm slurpers.
Ingredients:
* 1 1/2 c Mung bean sprouts

Wash sprout (worms) with warm water. Using clean hands, mix one cup of the sprouts, the ground beef and the raw egg together in a bowl. Reserve the remaining srpouts until later. Form burgers into six patties. Place in fry pan and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
With an adult's help, cook on medium heat until they are well browned underneath. Carefully turn the patties, season again and cook until the second side is well browned. Place on open buns and serve with the worms sprinkled on top as a garnish. Don't forget the pus and blood.
Ghoulish serving suggestion: Use a very CLEAN hole puncher to punch holes in lettuce garnish and stick the worms through.

Sweet and Spicy Pumpkin Seeds
Makes 1 cup
Pumpkin seeds must be completely dried out in the oven before combining with spices. Whether for cooking or carving, choose an unblemished pumpkin that feels heavy for its size; it will store well, uncarved, at room temperature, for up to a month.
1 medium pumpkin
5 tablespoons sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
Pinch cayenne pepper to taste
1 1/2 tablespoons peanut oil
1. Preheat oven to 250°. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Cut pumpkin open from the bottom, removing seeds with a long-handled spoon. Separate flesh from seeds, and reserve the flesh for another use (see Pumpkin Pie). Pumpkin should yield 1 cup seeds. Spread seeds on parchment in an even layer. Bake until dry, stirring occasionally, about 1 hour. Let cool.
2. In a medium bowl combine 3 tablespoons sugar, salt, cumin, cinnamon, ginger, and cayenne. Heat peanut oil in a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Add pumpkin seeds and remaining 2 tablespoons sugar. Cook until sugar melts and pumpkin seeds begin to caramelize, about 45 to 60 seconds. Transfer to bowl with spices, and stir well to coat. Let cool. These may be stored in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
Pumpkin Seeds
Also indexed as: Pepitas
Pumpkin seeds are good eaten as a snack, used in baking, or as a garnish for soups and salads.
Skip to:
* Varieties
* Buying and storing
* Availability
* Preparation tips
* Nutritional highlights
* Health benefits and concerns
Pumpkins and other winter squash are native to North and Central America but have since been cultivated around the world. The seeds are used as both food and medicine.
Varieties
The seeds of all varieties of pumpkins and squash are edible. Green hulled pumpkin seeds are called pepitas and are often used in southwestern and Mexican cooking.
Buying and storing tips
Pumpkin seeds can be purchased hulled or unhulled, raw or roasted. Like other nuts and seeds, pumpkin seeds can turn rancid quickly and should be kept in an airtight container in the refrigerator or freezer where they will keep for several months.
Availability
Although pumpkin seeds are available year-round, the best time of year to gather and dry your own pumpkin seeds are during the autumn months.
Preparation, uses, and tips
Like most nuts and seeds, pumpkin seeds are especially delicious roasted because roasting brings out their natural flavor. Unfortunately, high temperatures are said to destroy the potency of their essential fatty acids. So, for best nutritional value, it is best to eat nuts and seeds raw. Pumpkin seeds are great tossed in salads, mixed with grains, or ground up and added to salad dressings, casseroles, soups, and baked goods. Both hulled and unhulled pumpkin seeds are enjoyed as a dry-roasted snack food.

Health benefits and concerns
Acrodermatitis enteropathica
Acrodermatitis enteropathica is a rare inherited disorder that results in the inability to absorb adequate amounts of zinc from the diet. Anyone who is severely zinc deficient can develop the symptoms of the inherited form of this disorder. Pumpkin seeds, pecans, and Brazil nuts are all high in zinc. However, people with acrodermatitis enteropathica also need to take zinc supplements.
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH)
Pumpkin seed oil has been used in combination with saw palmetto, in two double-blind trials, to effectively reduce symptoms of BPH. Only one preliminary trial has evaluated the effectiveness of pumpkin seed oil alone for BPH. Researchers have suggested the zinc, free fatty acid, or plant sterol content of pumpkin seeds might account for their benefit in men with BPH, but this has not been confirmed. Animal studies have shown that pumpkin seed extracts can improve the function of the bladder and urethra; this might partially account for BPH symptom relief. Pumpkin seed oil extracts standardized for fatty acid content have been used in BPH studies in the amount of 160 mg three times per day with meals.
Depression
Pumpkin seeds contain L-tryptophan, and for this reason have been suggested to help remedy depression. However, research is needed before pumpkin seeds can be considered for this purpose. It is unlikely the amount of L-tryptophan in pumpkin seeds would be sufficient to relieve depression.
Kidney stones
Two studies have found that eating pumpkin seeds as a snack can help prevent the most common type of kidney stone, called a calcium oxalate stone. Pumpkin (Cucurbita pepo) seeds appear to reduce levels of substances that promote stone formation in the urine and increase levels of substances that inhibit stone formation. The active constituents of pumpkin seeds responsible for this action have not been identified. Approximately 5?10 grams per day of pumpkin seeds may be needed for kidney stone prevention.
Parasites
Pumpkin seeds have purported effects against tapeworms. Given their safety, they are often recommended as an addition to other, more reliable therapies. In Germany, 200?400 grams (about 6?13 ounces) are ground and taken with milk and honey, followed by castor oil two hours later. Tapeworms can cause severe illness and should be treated only with medical supervision. Human studies conducted in China have shown pumpkin seeds to be helpful for people with acute schistosomiasis, a severe parasitic disease transmitted from snails that occurs primarily in Asia and Africa. The assistance of a physician is required to help diagnose and treat any suspected intestinal parasite infections.
Health benefits and concerns for nuts and seeds
Many health benefits and concerns associated with this food are applicable to other nuts and seeds. Read about health benefits and concerns for nuts and seeds for a full description.
