New Cayden Cam Video: Toro!

To whom it may concern:

I uploaded a new video to the Cayden Cam last week.

The Late-Night Binge

You know that feeling you get right before you are going to start fasting or go without food for a while? I experience that every night. Suz will validate. Do not laugh -- because it is not funny. I just get ultra snacky right before bed.

So...I will have something salty.

Then I will think: "That was good...but I want to end on something sweet."

So...I will have something sweet.

Then I will think: "That was good too...but I think I acutally wanted to end on something salty after all."

And the cycle repeats.

The other night -- I kid you not -- I had the following foods in the the following order (as near as I remember):

  • Sip of Mug's Rootbeer (The BEST rootbeer -- do not bring that Barq's crap!)
  • Three Ritz crackers with Mozzarella cheese spread that Mom left from her last visit
  • One Chips Ahoy cookie
  • Two bites of Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Ice Cream (I know, two sweets in a row -- big faux pas)
  • A sip of the Fuze grapefruit juice -- from Mom's last visit (This nasty crap is neither sweet nor salty, so it balances out the two sweets that proceeded it.)
  • Water (I had to have something to clear the previous five items out.)

And that is it. I do not know how I made it through the night without perishing for lack of food. If I were a Diabetic, this would be the perfect storm.

Happy Mother's Day

If you are a man with a wife or mother: Today is Mother's Day. If this comes as news to you -- you screwed up. You better go find a Walgreen's or something.

Suzanne got flowers from me and a new mini-video from C-Monster. Okay, I helped -- a little. Anyway, Suzanne is an excellent mother and by far the best mother of my child! Hands down. That is why Cayden and I love her so much.

(And she makes chocolate-chip cookies for me on Sundays)

New Car: 2007 Ford Edge

"I want to live on the EDGE!"

If you've been half-awake during any American Idol episode this year then you have probably heard the commercials. And although my new Ford Edge does not drive on buildings -- it is still pretty sweet.

This particular vehicle was a hand-me-down from one of our employees here that was relocated to Detroit. A little strategic planning on my part planted me in the 10-way, heated, charcoal leather driver's seat.

I must say, it was very hard to say goodbye to the Milan. We have been though a lot together. 14,000 miles to be exact. But, the eye-catching Edge is quickly filling the void. Tender.

Here are the details:


  • 2007 Edge SEL

  • All-Wheel Drive

  • 3.5L V6

  • 265 HP (Best-in-class)

  • 250 lb./ft. of torque

  • 18" wheels

  • Navigation

  • DVD-Entertainment Center


Am I pleased with it? Very. It has all the capability of an Explorer but handling more similar to the Milan or Fusion. And it will get you to 60 MPH quicker than a Nissan Murano (ahem) with an interior quieter than a Lexus RX 330.

I have a website too, folks.

After receiving several (2) emails from my adoring fans wondering where the new videos are that I had promised, I am prompted to say:

"And other sites I have, which are not of this blog: them also I must write, and they shall hear my voice."

What does this mean? Well:

"Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before randblair.blogspot.com was, RandBlair.com was"

In short, the videos are posted to my website. When I posted them earlier this week I didn't get around to announcing it here on my blog. But the videos are there regardless. Here is the link:

www.randblair.com/features/cayden-cam.htm

There are two new videos in the last week. Enjoy.

P.S. New car write-up coming shortly.
P.S.S. Cayden is seven months old today!
