The Last Days? Maybe...

A religious post? I suppose it could be seen that way. In most Christian based religions, it is believed that there will be certain "signs of the times" that denote when the second coming of Christ is imminent. I will start by saying yes, I am a religious person. I have a firm belief in God. I know that Christ lives and that he made an atoning sacrifice for my sins. But I will also say that I do not believe that my faith means I need to tell anyone else how to live, feel, or worship. Sure, I have issues that I feel strongly one way or another on, but I will often reserve this opinion for people that I know are comfortable hearing it, or when directly asked my opinion.

With that being said, I'm going to throw it out there: I think the second coming of Christ is soon. Yeah yeah, I know what all my religious friends are inclined to say... "No one knows the coming of Christ, not even the angels in Heaven." I get that. And I agree, I have NO idea when Armageddon is going to hit. I just think it's soon. I used to feel that it would occur in the lifetime of my children (when I friggin' have some!) and MAYBE in my lifetime. But, now I'm feeling like it will occur during my lifetime (or during my naturally expected lifespan. Assuming I don't kick the bucket prematurely in a video game related disaster). Heck, it was said in the "Last Days" the moon would turn red as blood or something, right? Hasn't that happened?

There's just this feeling of "everything is going okay... but something isn't right" going on with me. Perhaps I am looking into things too deeply, but I feel better being able to write it down. If you feel the same way, be physically prepared for any collapse. I'd recommend getting started on some stored food, so if anything goes haywire, even for a brief period of time, you won't be going hungry, or broke trying to buy a loaf of bread (see Germany's history where wheelbarrows of money were used to buy a single beer).

Can I Get Fries With That?

I love fast food. I love it a lot. My personal trainer says... "no fast food!" So I abstain from such things (most of the time). I get one day a week where I can eat anywhere I want. And it's days like that where I'm sure there's a great force of evil in my life. I have merely three meals (four if I push my luck) where I can partake in the foods that I daydream about all week. Today was one of those days where all I could think about was a greasy hamburger. Not just one hamburger either. And not just any hamburger mind you.

There are three hamburgers that I completely love. And I'd like to tell you about them. They are amazing. And for a fast food burger, it's like a party in your mouth and everyone is invited. I'd like to share them with you. I hope that you will try all of these burgers. And please... tell me you loved them as much as I do.

Burger #1: The Western Bacon Cheeseburger (Carl's Jr.)
This is a great burger. Especially if you like barbecue sauce on a hamburger. Which I do. Onion rings on a burger! Carl, you genius!

Burger #2: BBQ Bacon Sirloin Burger (Jack-in-the-Box)
Okay... imagine the Western Bacon Cheeseburger, then make the meat taste better and the bun taste better... and.... WHAMMO! The BBQ Bacon Sirloin Burger. This thing is awesome. It's a heart attack in a bun, but you'll die smiling.

Burger #3: The Loaded Steakhouse Burger (Burger King)
Holy crap holy crap holy crap. This hamburger makes me cry it's so good. CRY I TELL YOU!!! Do NOT confuse this burger with the regular Steakhouse Burger on the menu. It is not the same! This burger has A1 sauce on it and a friggin' BAKED POTATO WITH CHIVES on the top!!! Okay so it's more like a mashed potato product with chives... but holy crap it's like the crack of the burger world. This is a pinch-me-I'm-dreaming kind of thing. Please try it. Please eat it slow and savor it. And when you're fat and happy, come on back here and thank me.
