Chicken Pie


Never underestimate the power of chicken. This winged creature is capable not only of clucking, but also of curing every chronic disease known to man. Billy Witch Doctor.Com was quoted saying, "arise chicken, chicken arise." If you need any more proof that chicken flesh is a miracle meat then sink your incisors into one of my scrumptious chicken pies. Piping hot chicken breast and freshly prepared vegetables are bathed in a savory homemade gravy and encased in a flaky pastry crust. After consuming one slice of this disease fighting pie you will be thankful you traded me a board for it.

Cockfights at Walmart

It was on a dreary winter's day that Nugget and I stumbled into Walmart. He ventured in with hopes of finding cheap food and I was in need of a couple new shirts to clothe my freckled body. Our mission was a complete success, and as an added bonus we were invited to watch a cockfight taking place just outside. The rooster I bet on lost miserably but the whole ordeal was immensely entertaining none the less. These are the things that make rainy days worth while.

100th Clog Post Anniversary

I have sequestered myself in the dingy cell that is my room for the past two weeks trying to concoct a 100th Clog. The social umbilical cord that connects me to the outside world has been severed in order to maintain focus and concentration. Despite all my best efforts however, I am unable to think of anything groundbreaking. My gun was loaded and cocked, and I was prepared to repaint the walls of my room with brains when a thought came to me. Why do I care about a 100th Clog post? What is it but a number? I began thinking back to my favorite television episodes. The memorable ones were never the 100th episode variety shows and 20 year anniversary spectaculars. I gently lowered the firearm from its perch upon my right temple and closed my laptop

The Man, the myth, the Miller

Stink is definitely a human being I am fond of. He has a genuine lust for existence that I doubt will be hampered by time or circumstance. Spend a few moments to marvel at these pictures before you head out into the world.

The last Clog of 2008

The year has come to an end, and what a year it has been. This past year has provided us with both joy and sorrow, and as I write my last Clog of 2008 I can not help but think... how utterly pointless New Years Eve is. Sorry, but I am just not backing New Years. There are no pumpkins to be carved, no trees to be chopping down, and no eggs to be decorated. The only good thing about New Years Eve is that Ben Fowler's birthday is on the same night. We should remember this night for Fowler's entrance into the world, not the coming of a new year. So happy birthday dear friend, the Clog loves you, and so do the rest of us. Honestly I am still stuck in the middle of december.

Mexican Food Hotspots


Greetings all, I hope the holidays treated you wonderfully. I am sure most of you have had your fill of turkey, mashed potatoes and holiday desserts (except pie... pie is FOREVER) so the Clog is here to provide you with other forms of savory taste bud tantalization. I myself am quite partial to quality Mexican food, and this humble shack located in Los Banos serves some of the tastiest tacos, tortas, and burritos I have ever laid my tongue upon. More specifically, Cutija has a dizzying array of meats to select from, and the cabeza is unbeatable. Yes... cabeza is meat from the cow's head... and yes... it is delicious. When you are done eating treat yourself to one of the many incredible Los Banos skate spots.

Christmas Clog Yule Time Log



It is now seven PM on wednesday December twenty third. My dear friend Lane Kerans has been demanding that I make the trek over to his house all day, but much to his dismay I have been occupied with baking. It is not usual for me to spend hours upon end slaving away in the kitchen creating dough and producing pie filing. What makes today different is that I am baking a cake, or a Buche De Noel if specifics are something you find appealing. This is a rolled cake that originated in France and resembles a Yule Log. Merry Christmas my friends! I love you all!
