Cloverfield and Bacon on a Stick

Best food item in the world (discovered last night): Bacon on a Stick

Okay, it was a skinny breadstick wrapped in bacon. If you're a vegetarian or vegan or anti-swine (or anti-carb for that matter), it won't be up your alley, but for me? Nirvana. Manna from heaven.

In fact, as a NASCAR fan, I want to know how I didn't know of this food's existence before now. It's bacon! On a breadstick! It's like a reverse pig in a blanket with more taste!

Cloverfield

If there's one thing I hate, it's movie trailers that give away everything. (On the flip side, I love movie titles that give away everything. Snakes on a Plane by any other name would have been wrong.) I want a movie trailer to tease me and make me want to see it.

"Cloverfield" does that. You know, that mystery trailer before "Transformers" by JJ Abrams. I love it! Makes you wonder if it's another classic 80s cartoon coming to life, another Godzilla movie (being done right), a King Kong movie, a random monster that's new to cinema...who knows what? But it teases in all the best ways.

Now as long as the movie lives up to the trailer.

(If you want to see it, go to YouTube and put in Cloverfield or 01-18-08 or JJ Abrams. I'd link, but the clips are pulled pretty quickly, so it's up to you to find it.)
