101 Help

Wow...it's been a lot harder coming up with 101 tasks than I thought. I'm about a third of the way there, but in theory...I need to finish my list by the end of the month. So now I'm soliciting help. As I posted in January, I am going to try to complete 101 tasks in 1001 days. I need ideas for things to do, places to go, people to see...whatever. =P I currently have 28 things committed to paper and about a half dozen things floating around in my head. Let me know what you think I should be doing...and we'll see if it makes the list on February 28!

Wheel of Food

I admit it...I usually have issues trying to decide where to go for lunch. Luckily, one of my friends showed me a nifty tool that could help out in the future. It's called the Wheel of Lunch. It's a flash component, created by Krazydad. Provide this magical wonder with a zip code and a search term, and it'll create a wheel to make the decisions for you. Who knows...you may even discover a new restaurant or two!

Hey Luke...Forgive Me, Por Favor

Last Thursday, I went with some co-workers to a restaurant called "Tacos Por Favor". While we were eating, a couple guys at my table started whispering about a famous movie star. I looked to the table to my right. Indeed...there was a movie star there...Mr. Luke Wilson...enjoying his cerveza.

Another co-worker was at a nearby table. Instead of shouting to her and pointing to Mr. Luke Wilson, I thought it best to give her a call. So...I whipped out my cell phone and dialed her number. From my peripheral vision, I also saw Mr. Luke Wilson recoil.

Two seconds later...I realized what had happened. Here's a tip for you all. If making a phone call in the vicinity of a movie star, you should probably not aim it in their direction while dialing a number. It may appear to them as though you are taking a picture with your cell phone. It also didn't help that my co-worker failed to answer her phone and i hung up a few seconds later.

So...Sorry, Luke! I really didn't take a picture of you with my cell phone. But, with the reaction I had already caused...I may as well have.
