Bacon

I like Bacon. Scratch that--I love Bacon. Bacon is glorious. Bacon makes the world go round. Bacon is the food of the gods. If I were on death row and had to choose my final meal, it would certainly include a heaping (yes, heaping) amount of bacon. Bacon is the way, the truth and the li--oh wait, that's Jesus. Ok, Bacon is awesome. Can I get an AMEN?!?

And these days Bacon is everywhere--we have Bacon-flavored ice cream, Bacon vodka, Bacon sex dreams, Bacon hangover remedies, Vegetarians who love Bacon, Bacon lube, Bacon as a condiment, the Bacon Brothers, and on and on. (Thanks to all the friends who have sent these links around in the past few weeks/months). There hasn't been a product with so many uses since George Washington Carver revolutionized the peanut. UPDATE The Baconator has asked that I post this video of Jim Gaffigan: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CaK9bjLy3v4

Next week I will be seeing some great old friends, some who I see but once a year at this time. We'll catch up, tell stories, and recount past times, all while sitting drinking from our beer-filled Bubba Kegs and devouring endless amounts of Bacon. It's truly what binds our friendship all together. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

COMING NEXT WEEK:
Andy Locke Likes what H.T. Adjemian Likes

Special guest blogger, H.T. Adjemian, will be filling in for me while I am away on vacation. He once wore a fedora made of Bacon--and ate it.
