Now they are saying lard is actually not as bad as once thought. It has more nutrition and less fat than butter ! Also, it has more of the good fats (mono/polyunsaturated).

I keep remembering the Woody Allen movie "Sleeper" where all the bad stuff was good in the future.

Let the urinal games begin - - MSN Money


A minor league baseball team tries to entertain fans in the men's room with 'the world's only truly hands-free' controller.

Who knew that going to the men's room could be so much fun?

When baseball season starts next month, fans of the Lehigh Valley IronPigs will be able to play video games as they pee into a urinal -- no joke. The AAA affiliate of the Philadelphia Phillies has dubbed the system "the world's only truly hands-free urinal game controller." It was developed by U.K.-based Captive Media, and the IronPigs are the first team to use it.

The team will have a variety of "X-Stream games" throughout the season at its Coca-Cola Park stadium. One is alpine skiing, in which players try to hit as many cartoon penguins as possible as they speed along the mountain slopes in a snowmobile. That's quite a challenge, given that the games will last about 55 seconds.

When finished, users will receive a code so they can see how they fared against other fans at the ballpark. High scores will be displayed in real time across various video displays. Friends and family of the winners will no doubt be proud -- and slightly perplexed -- by these achievements.

"So while the Phillies’ farm system may not exactly be stocked with talent anymore, at least the stadiums are really cool," says the Philadelphia Inquirer.

The games are sponsored by a local hospital as a way to promote prostate health. The IronPigs are so giddy about the promotion that they're letting the metaphors flow -- literally.

"These games are sure to make a huge splash," exclaimed IronPigs General Manager Kurt Landes in a press release. "Our fans are always looking for the next big thing and these 'X-Stream games' are another example of our commitment to providing an unparalleled entertainment experience in all aspects of Coca-Cola Park, including our restrooms."
 
^^^How bad does your team need to be to have to provide alternate entertainment at your stadium?

I see a few fights breaking out when there's a line and someone wants to stay a little longer to play the game.
 
Customer: (on the phone) "I was referred to you by XXXXXX. What are your prices?"

Me: "It really depends on what you are looking for. My prices start at $$$$ for a full detail."

Customer: "Wow! Such-and-such place only charges $$ for a full detail."

Me: "When you asked XXXXXX for a referral for a detailer did you ask him for a good detailer or a cheap detailer?"

Customer: "A good one."

Me: "Okay. I have openings for the week after next. Would you like to set an appointment?"

Customer: "You don't have anything in the next couple of days? Such-and-such place can do it tomorrow."

Me: "So would you like to set an appointment for 2 weeks from now for me to fix their detail?"

In my head: "Well, yeah. When you spend 2-3 hours per car you can do 3-4 per day, and even more when you have minimum wage employees doing the work. Don't ask for a good detailer when what you really want is a cheap or fast detailer. They are mutually exclusive concepts. If you start your Google search with cheap or fast my name won't come up."

Good, Fast and Cheap...

You can pick one
You may even pick two
You can't pick all three

For me you can only pick one...Quality lives on long after the price is forgotten.
