I am officially afraid of all that is Hamburger Helper.

Why you might ask? It is cursed, completely and utterly cursed.

My girlfriend Jana and I decided it would be a great day to make some of the evil Hamburger creation on Saturday. We were hungry, it seemed like the intelligent move, when you are hungry, you make food. Soon though we were to learn that was the worst idea we had ever had.

I, being the smart kid I am, really like to watch Alton Brown. He said the best way to defrost something is to run water over it in the sink. Our microwave is semi satanic in the dorms so we ignored even trying to use that, so don't even ask. But we started running water over the meat in a bag. We checked it the first time and it was completely ok. We checked it the second time, it was close but not quite thawed.

We decided to watch the rest of the TV show we were watching. Then we go back, probably should have gone earlier. I walk in and go, "Wow, my feet are suddenly wet and cold, oh, this sink looks like a beautiful waterfall." About that time it finally clicked that we had flooded the whole kitchen and that there was about of inch of water on the floor.

So what do we do. We find a mop. About then though the RA comes down with her boyfriend, and goes...Hey guys there sure is a lot of water in there. Luckily it is spring break, so no one is really around the dorms but us. We have a good laugh about it, then in that process I go, "OMG! The carpet cleaner!"

Luckily the carpet cleaner has a super suction thing on the front. After about 15 gallons of water get sucked up and an hour later, the room is cleaner than it has been in years.

So that is why Hamburger Helper is cursed.

Oh yeah! And after all that and we got done eating the Hamburger Helper, we both got stomach aches.

We know later this year we get to vote for the president of the United States. Seeing as all the candidates right now kind of suck, I have compiled a list of the best write-in candidates. So now you know, if you can't decide put in one of these great options.

Bev Battagler

Beverly Ann Battagler born in Durbin, ND is a current resident of Hunter, ND and rules her daycare with an iron fist and kind heart. She is an experienced woman that has seen a lot and can help the world. She will push fair laws and definitively enforce proper time outs for naughty people and also make sure you eat your vegetables.

So remeber when you are voting for president to write in Bev Battagler for her ability to change the world or at least a diaper.






Darth Vader

Darth Vader is a fictional character from the Star Wars universe. He was portrayed by bodybuilder David Prowse and a series of stunt doubles, most notably Bob Anderson, while his voice was supplied by actor James Earl Jones. The character is one of the most iconic villains in film history and was ranked third on American Film Institute's 100 Heroes and Villains list.

In the original trilogy, Vader is depicted as the cunning, brutal head enforcer of the Galactic Empire's rule across the galaxy. Vader serves as the apprentice of Emperor Palpatine (Ian McDiarmid), using the dark side of the Force to mercilessly pursue the Jedi and the Rebel Alliance to the ends of the galaxy. The prequel trilogy recounts the heroic rise and tragic fall of Vader's former self, Anakin Skywalker. Anakin was portrayed by Jake Lloyd and Hayden Christensen in the prequel trilogy, while Sebastian Shaw played the role in Return of the Jedi.

Ruling the world, and probably the rest of the galaxy with an iron fist. Darth Vader would be a great write in for president. If anyone got in his way he would choke them, lightsaber them, or otherwise dismember them. I would be a little worried about the whole freedom of speech thing.

Lobby the Lobster

Lobby the Lobster has been vying for president for years. Why haven't you heard of him? Most likely because the other candidates are afraid of his ideas. He wants to change the world, one crustation at a time.

Why vote for Lobby? Because it all boils down to not succumbing to the Lobbyist's junk. He will follow his own ideas and lobby his own ideas.









Mr. Jack I. Box

Jack is the clown mascot of American restaurant chain Jack In The Box. In the advertisements, he is the founder, CEO, and ad spokesman for the restaurant.

Jack, fluent in English and Spanish, has starred in more than 300 television and radio commercials, including more than 100 Spanish-language ads. Jack's linguistic talents also include Mandarin, which he spoke in the 1999 television ad "Titans."

A true man of the people, Jack ran for president in 1996 and beat out Bill Clinton, Bob Dole and Dogbert in a national independent Virtual Vote poll; no recounts required.

You can not tell me he wouldn't be a great write in for president this year. Come on he beat Dogbert, and a Clinton. Which might I add really needs to be done this year too.

Dick Cheney

Cheney was selected to be the Secretary of Defense during the presidency of George H.W. Bush, a position he held for much of Bush's term. In it, Cheney oversaw the 1991 Operation Desert Storm, among others.

Out of office during the Clinton presidency, Cheney was Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Halliburton Company from 1995 to 2000.

Cheney joined the presidential campaign of George W. Bush in 2000, who selected him as his running mate. As Vice President, Cheney remains a very public and controversial figure. He continues to assert that the Iraq War and War on Terror must be won by the United States, and many of his other policy recommendations initially drew strong approval, but in his second-term disapproval of his performance has outweighed approval, as measured by national polls. Cheney is generally acknowledged to be one of the most powerful and influential Vice Presidents in U.S. history.

The best reason to write-in Cheney would be that he would probably die from excitement. I could just see it, "I finally have the power!". Then his electric heart would explode. We also know he isn't afraid to take out people that are in his way.

Steve Jobs

Steven Paul Jobs (born February 24, 1955) is the co-founder, Chairman and CEO of Apple Inc, and was the CEO of Pixar Animation Studios until it was acquired by the Walt Disney Company in 2006.

Jobs's history in business has contributed greatly to the myths of the quirky, individualistic Silicon Valley entrepreneur, emphasizing the importance of design while understanding the crucial role aesthetics play in public appeal. His work driving forward the development of products that are both functional and elegant has earned him a devoted following.

Together with Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak, Jobs helped popularize the personal computer in the late '70s. In the early '80s, still at Apple, Jobs was among the first to see the commercial potential of the mouse-driven GUI. After losing a power struggle with the board of directors in 1985, Jobs resigned from Apple and founded NeXT, a computer platform development company specializing in the higher education and business markets. Next's subsequent 1997 buyout by Apple brought Jobs back to the company he co-founded, and he has served as its chief executive officer since shortly after his return.

Jobs would be a great write-in for president. Everyone would get a free mac, and the world would be a prettier place. Would not have much for substance though now would it.

Castro

Fidel Alejandro Castro Ruz (born August 13, 1926) is the current President of Cuba, though due to illness, his duties have been transferred to his younger brother, Raúl Modesto Castro Ruz.

Castro led the revolution overthrowing Fulgencio Batista in 1959. Shortly thereafter, Castro was sworn in as the Prime Minister of Cuba.

Castro first attracted attention in Cuban political life through nationalist critiques of Batista and the United States political and corporate influence in Cuba. He gained an ardent, but limited, following and also drew the attention of the authorities. He eventually led the failed 1953 attack on the Moncada Barracks, after which he was captured, tried, incarcerated and later released. He then travelled to Mexico to organize and train for the guerrilla invasion of Cuba that took place in December 1956.

Since his assumption of power in 1959 he has evoked both praise and condemnation (at home and internationally). Opponents characterize Castro as a dictator, claiming that he has not risen to power through open, public elections, and some contend that his rule is illegitimate because the socialist system itself was not established through what they considered to be legal means. Supporters, on the other hand, see Castro as a charismatic leader whose presidential authority has been acquired through legitimate elections.

Who would be better for president than a crazy Commie? Heck, I bet he would completely reform our economy. We all know we would be able to get Cuban cigars too.
