Mickey’s Vacation SomaCow Media is proud to present SomaCow, brought to you in this hour by spb designs photography. Take a moment to immerse yourself in some of his pictures. His style is innovative and atypical, and wholly neat.
In this hour, we discussed shopping with another man, Technicolor, and some guy who lives in Orlando and wears a panda suit. I don’t know, just go with it. Can’t be any worse than our standard third hour fare, right? I was shocked to learn that Mickey thinks I over-order at the butcher. Maybe I do, but that is only because I shop when I am hungry. Here, for your pleasure, are my High Dollar Food Grocery Chain seeking tips, courtesy of the ‘Cow: 1. Never Shop Hungry. As soon as you arrive at your local high end grocery store, head straight for the olive bar. You can theoretically eat 48 of these in a few seconds, and the layer of olives, oil, and salt in your stomach will help you to make smarter choices in your cuts. Ignore the stares of other patrons and employees… Their coats are not shiny. 2. Buy in Bulk. If London Broil, or Delmonicoes, or even a good beef stew meat is on sale, it doesn’t matter how many people are being served, how much meat you can safely ingest in a months time, or even the contents of your meager checking account. BUY IT ALL. I have NEVER looked across the table and thought, “gee, I purchased reasonably! I am thrilled to not have leftovers!” You can never have too much meat. If you ever find yourself in such a ridiculous predicament, come see me. 3. Stick to the Meats and Vegetables. It’s a known fact that all higher end grocers line their counters with great priced local produce and fresh, tasty food. So why is everyone in this store so fat? It’s the Pastry, stupid. Covered in butter, swollen with sugary goodness, these evil entrepreneurs have left eclairs and napoleans aplenty lurking behind each and every corner. You have to be strong, and slap aside such sweettraps. Eye on the prize, never look back just keep…. Oh… It’s got key lime filling? Okay, just… Just give me 18 of them. Thanks! Oh! Hey, is that sea salt and habenero popcorn over there? That goes good with Kona, right? 4. Carry a Basket. This is the only real tip on the list. You should not be eating more than you can carry (unless it is cheap beef, see tip #2). If you get a cart, you can load and load and load, and the next thing you know, you have a $456.82 bill and you are wondering just how the hell does one cook butternut squash, anyway? Avoid this scenario, and just get the li’l basket. Ignore the fact that your friend keeps insulting your sexuality and asking if you are going to see your grandmother. 1 in 5 adults have Herpes, and he is looking 20, if you know what I mean. 5. Get Your Wife to Do It. I cannot stress this enough: The easiest way to get a chore done quickly and with a minimum of effort is to have someone else do it. Life is so much easier when you have other people buy your food, cook your meals, tie your shoes, write your blogs. If you do it, and it sucks, or does not go well, or in any way fails, you have to scramble for someone to blame. Only by sitting back, and forcing others to do your bidding can you truly find fault, and yet not exert effort. Best of luck, Shoppers!

In this, our… um… Hour, we discussed a myriad of topics, both sophomoric and profound. We ran the gambit of gabbery on a gadabout glorious… We attacked the tough issues facing Amer…. Okay, it was straight fart talk for twenty minutes. But that is to be expected at this point. We all had a lotta ribs and beefs, and that makes for this type of discussion. Surely you can understand. We bravely attempted to pull the show out of its nosedive of frappery with a topic on steakhouses – specifically, is the steakhouse dying? Why are all the chains dropping in quality or shutting their doors? Look at the facts: Outback – Sucked. No two bones about it, whatever they are doing today (dry bread, yellow salads, tough beefs, dumb staff) is a pale shell of what they once had going on Longhorn – Salted beefs? My mamma always said, if you gotta put that much seasoning on, you are trying to hide something. What is the secret to your salty beefs, oh Horn of Assumed Length?  Image via Wikipedia Roadhouse – Closed, assumed Orlando bankrupt. I will miss your yeasty bounty, and bloody medium rare beefs most of all, scarecrow Steak and Ale – Someone finally put the fork in this cheesy seventies franchise. Gasp! Where will rude dumb teenagers hold their post-graduation dinners now?! It doesn’t leave us with much, does it folks? Houstons? Overpriced at best – Seriously – who is paying 12 dollars for a baked potato? It’s a TUBER, for Christ’s sake! Fleming’s – I’ve never been, how is it?  Image via Wikipedia Ruth’s Chris – a fascinating establishment, capable of delivering a steak that tastes like it sat in a bowl of Redenbacher’s finest overnight. By which I mean to say, your butter has beef flavor on it. Ted’s – I would pay a hundred dollars to eat at Ted’s, to try a Ted on the side, and wash it down with a Ted. We, sadly, went all D and D at the end. Mickey tried to save us with some good Life Coaching at the :42, but the damage was done, and we never really recovered. We sat for three hours waiting for our salads, listening to the following great music:
