Snooty Raton

Posted in May 23rd, 2008

Recently, my family and I visited a pretty nice corner of Florida – the southeastern coastal area of Deerfield Beach and Boca Raton. The area was clean, I was off work, and the beach with some crazy-sized waves was literally about 100 yards from my bed. Over the course of the week, it became fairly [...]

Here’s a tip…

Posted in May 23rd, 2008

You step off a cruise ship and into a cab. You pay the full agreed fare, and also a tip.

You rent a hotel room, paying full price according to the hotel chains pricing scheme. You leave a tip.

You eat a meal at a restaurant and at the end of your meal you pay a tip.

You take one stupid photo in front of some weird-looking guy’s donkey! Tip time.

Tips are business. I don’t know the stats as to how much money is made on tips in any given period of time (I’m sure it wouldn’t be to difficult to find out) but I would venture to guess it’s one of those money making methods that stray into the billions of dollars per year side of the tracks.

There’s a party in my tummy! (So yummy!)
Are you laughing? Or at least smiling and nodding approvingly saying, “aww yeah…”?
If not, watch this:

Yeah. Just take it all in. Maybe get something to eat…put some food in your stomach. Because I don’t think you should watch the next couple clips with an empty stomach. Plus, apparently, [...]

Last night some friends and I went to Blu Sushi, which you probably wouldn’t know much about unless you lived in Southwest Florida…but I’m sure you at least get the idea that they make sushi. That particular night was “Blu Sushi’s Tribute to the Little Black Dress” —ladies wearing a black dress got a free [...]

Dear Hollywood:

Published in Entertainment, Reference

You need me! Why do you keep spending millions of dollars on films that fall flat immediately upon their release?
Let’s look at a recent example: 10,000 B.C. ONE HUNDRED MILLION dollars was spent on this amazingly over-hyped movie. Most movies are supposed to make what was spent on them in the [...]

What is the FourTwo?

One hoopy frood The FourTwo seeks to provide its readers with satisfying answers to the questions they've always sought to understand.
Provided, of course, that such questions are directly related to what is going on in my life and in my mind at the moment.

What's New?

I'll be adding all the Hitchhiker's Guide entries from my old blog to this one, and they can be found in the Guide Entry category for your referential pleasure.

The FourTwo is going green! And you can, too! I set up a CafePress storefront (it's new, and thus, free of any customization at the moment) and the first item I'd like to feature is the FourTwo Canvas Tote, AKA reusable shopping bag. All the cool people are doing it, and now you can one-up them with your FourTwo shopping bags.
