At least the frog got his own back!

One of my favourite internet nerds is at it again, slick tunes, good job Trale Lewous aka Nathan Barnatt. More of his stuff over on youtube.

These indian crackers really take things to a new and unpleasant place, the reactions of the talent show judges are the best. It's like watching a car accident, and knowing you've helped create it.

It's a sad thought to know as hard as I may try to create a viral video or get hits i'll never be able to beat a dude doing some fake farts in Time Square.

These bite sized candy filled chewy ropes with a sour outsides should be delicious. Watermelon/Green Apple & Cherry/Orange flavour? Sounds delicatble - except the sad truth is both flavours taste almost the same... Plastic/Play Doh flavour. I gave the bag a whiff as soon as I opened them and they smell just like Play Doh and taste not much better. Awful. Total candy fail. Don't they get anyone to taste this stuff before they ship it out?

1.5/10 Sour Play Doh

My friend Andy showed me a similar recipe using two chickens with cans of beer up their butts that lean on each other to stay up, called Dancing Chickens, since i've got only one - and my friend Andy also likes to dance by himself….and is often referred too as 'Dancing Andy' - i've named the recipe after him.

The basic jist is the can of beer inside the chicken steams and also the yeast and malt in the beer reacts with the chicken, in particular the skin and makes it all sorts of good and also super moist meat.

Ingredients:

1 Large Chicken
1 Can of Beer
Garlic
Rosemary & Other Seasoning Herbs
Butter
Charcoal BBQ (large one)
Charcoals
Wood for smoking (I used Birch, you could use Applewood, Mesquite etc...)

Step 1.

Season your chicken, since we're also adding wood to the coals to smoke you don't need to season or flavour it too much. I just lightly oiled and used some peppers, salt and rosemary on the skin. You'll also wanna tuck in the wings so they don't burn, my chicken was already tied when I purchased it so I left the string on.

Step 2.

Season the BEER! Yeah why not, first take a few swings of the beer so the can is only about 1/2 - 3/4 full, so it has more room to boil and bubble. I added some crushed garlic, rosemary, cumin and pepper then then stabbed the can a few times to make a few more holes and slits towards the top to allow more beer vapour to escape.

Step 3.

Insert beer can into the chicken butt. I am not sure if chickens have private parts but I think they just have one hole, so really it's the chickens vagunus, or even poogina.

Step 4. 

You'll need to cook it in a large weber style charcoal bbq, a big one so it can stand up. I made a bit of a rig to help hold him up but they can stand up on their own but you do risk them falling over. You can actually purchase devices built to hold the chicken and some with a can built onto a base also.

You'll want your coals to be hot and on the side of the grill so you're not cooking directly indirectly. You'll wanna cook the chicken covered,  for a little more then an hour depending on the size of your chicken. Add wood to the coals periodically to add smoke flavour and also rotate the chicken once or twice during the cooking time.

I suggest drinking the rest of the beers while cooking to build up a hunger and occasionally basting with some garlic butter. SO GOOD!!

My buddy Liam was raving about this place and brought me there one night between hockey trainings, as it's just by the rink. Lets get something clear, Chip Stronghold loves chicken, he especially love chicken with ranch and also enjoys writing in the 3rd person.

The place is kinda a cross between an restaurant and a takeaway place, it's clean and pretty modern. It doesn't have an extensive menu but it's clear the reason why the people go there. Chicken, chicken burgers, smothered in a Portuguese sauce and some tasty mayonnaise to top it off.

I had a chicken burger with cheese in it and some rice, it was friggin' tasty and  a little bit spicy and garlicky. Food was fresh, the rice was nice too, especially with the sauce and mayo on that as well. Worth checking out, especially if you're running out of options for places to eat around the Sydney Ice Arena waiting between training sessions. You can have a sweet man-date there.

Looked like the joint was pretty popular, especially considering the place is in Bella Vitsa in amongst the office buildings, check out the official website here for location and more info.

I love a cooked breakfast, eggs are awesome. Dennys, often looked down upon as scum of the reaturant world - though that's pretty much true, their breakfast is so nasty it's great. American breakfasts are a novelty to a non-american and scrambled eggs in Australia tend to be slushy, runny and kinda gross, bacon is often more like uncooked ham, there's no such thing as breakfast sausage, just a plain fat ones and hash? What's hash? You mean a burnt frozen has brown?

American style breakfast is actually kinda a novelty to find in Australia and tends to be kinda shit and overpriced. Though I felt kinda gross afterwards I didn't regret chowing down on an All American Grand Slam Breakfast and stealing some of my girlfriends pancakes. I went to the Dennys on Gateway Boulevard in Edmonton, Canada.

8/10 Nasty goodness ^_^ !!

Michele Bachmann's eyes are almost crazy as the riots happening in London. Here's proof!

Mattel is making a pretty awesome realistic ghost trap from the Ghostbusters movie, a must have for the über Ghostbusters fan. Beats the plastic crap one I had as a kid and the torch with a ghost shaped filter on the end.
