But don't be fooled. On the INSIDE, I feel like THIS:

It's almost 2007. I'm almost 40. I am haunted by the knowledge of what I have yet to accomplish in this life. 

And yet, I have muscles. 

And you can read into that some kind of metaphorical musing, if you like. Make me out to be a philosopher, or poet, if you will. 

But basically, I know the TRUTH -- and that truth has made me incredibly muscular -- almost grotesquely so.  

Deal with it...

If you want to have your butt kicked, then what you do, see, is you go buy yourself a copy of that new CD by Mute Math. 

Some of you NEED your butt kicked, by the way. 

(I'm talkin' to YOU, Atlas)...

If you want your mind mildly blown, old-school, then what you do, see, is go to YouTube and check out that video of Sugar Water by Cibo Matto. 

Some of you NEED a mild, old-school mind blow, by the way. 

(If you're smart, you'll also check the live video of them doing Sci-Fi Wasabi -- that's Sean Lennon on bass, and the boy comes correct -- they rock hard, but it starts slow -- wait for it)...

. . .

If you want a dinner that will just smash your taste buds into blissful submission, then what you do, see, is you move to Japan and start hanging out with some Christian Latinos. 

Some of you NEED to move to ... er... never mind on this one... 

(But honestly, who knew a German chocolate cake baked by a Brazilian chick in Japan would cajole an American into culinary submission so easily? Not I)...
