Shake’s/Sheridan’s Showdown 2007

Even though my sister Meredith and I had many disagreements growing up, recently there have been a few notable things we have agreed on wholeheartedly. The Nintendo Wii and frozen custard at Shake’s are both incredibly awesome. I have recently moved to the Kansas City area, and my experiences here may cause us to revisit our disagreeable days.

Jennifer and I had a craving for frozen custard the other day, and looked online for the closest Shake’s. Unfortunately, the closest one was 5.7 miles away, so we decided to try out a place called Sheridan’s we had seen earlier that day that was a mere 3 miles away from our place. It was awesome. While I still think Shake’s custard is awesome, I think Sheridan’s might be better.

In order to determine just who makes the better custard, I am planning on holding a showdown between these two places the next time Meredith and Henry grace us with their presence. I hope that if Meredith and I come to different conclusions on which establishment makes the better custard we will be able to put it behind us and agree to disagree.

Jennifer keeps saying I need to post more, and recently I got a couple reasons to post.

Based on having a lot of fun playing with Breckin’s remote control cars and an RC helicopter at a friend’s house, I got myself one of these:

It is a Micro Mosquito made by Interactive Toy . It doesn’t move very fast, and the battery only lasts about 10 minutes, but it is a whole lot of fun.

I also got myself one of these:

I had decided to get a Wii when they first came out November 19th, but they ended up being a lot more in demand than I thought. Two months after they came out I stood in line outside Best Buy for two hours and finally got one. It was worth it.

I highly recommend you get one of each for yourself!

My heart breaks…

This story has been all over the news lately. A young 20 something Australian tried smuggling some drugs out of Singapore several years ago and was hanged for it yesterday. Obviously, it was an idiotic thing to do and he does deserve some sort of punishment, but death? Really? I only agree with the death penalty in the most extreme of situations, and sometimes I even hesitate then. This entire situation just makes me sick. Talk about the punishment not matching the crime.
