Wee Wee Stats: Twitter’s Best Statistical Restroom Usage

Wee Wee Stats is a project Mike Rapin and I thought up and developed to answer the scientific questions, “How often do I pee and poop?” and “Do I pee and/or poop more during the winter or the summer? Does it really matter the season?”

This new fandangled device uses Twitter, a Web 2.0 device to track the little things you do in life, as its data collection. To sign into Wee Wee Stats you’ll first need to register a twitter username. This username will give you access to text messaging, using many programs, or just using Twitter’s website to enter your restroom usage.

If you’re already familiar with Twitter then you simply need to do one of these:
d wwst 1
d wwst 2
d wwst 2 home corn

Yes children, “home” and “corn” are tags! Like every other sweet website out there we let you tag your restroom experiences so you can look back later and compare. It’ll also work amazingly for upcoming statistics and graphs.

It’s sweet! Check it out,

A work day with a student: Ben

Because he is running for president someday, Ben likes to keep his under aged drinking habits a secret:

Dan: I hear you’ve been a MIP
Ben: No never
Dan: they said you tried beer.
Ben: You can’t talk about this over AIM, its unencrypted

With this next one keep in mind that Ben sits less than 20 feet away from me:

Ben: Maybe its better if we talk on the phone, I can call you

The Somethingstore.com: Einsteinian Gluons

I bought a something from the somethingstore.com and, after waiting 17 days, finally got it. Although I had envisioned getting something awesome to my surprise it was not.

The item I purchased for $10 ended up being worthless beyond all belief. I got Einsteinian Gluons; an Einstein themed sticky note book. What computer science geek would use sticky notes? I suppose I could label my computers time to time.

A couple other guys in the office got a something too. They both got the same thing which ended up being an inexpensive coffee mug (lame!).

Here are some pictures of my mysterious purchase:

For those of you who are interested, the actual cost of my something is less than $6 on Amazon.

Burrito Recipe, Amazing!

Introduction

This week while coming up with easy recipes to make for lunches I decided to go with Beef Burritos. I bought a bunch of ingredients that I through together to form 8 1lb burritos (with extra filling for later) I estimated at $1.73 each.

Ingredients

1 Small Package of White or Brown Rice [$1.50]
2 Cans of Black Beans [2@$0.70]
1/2 Small Bag Frozen Yellow Corn (about 1 can) [$0.60]
1 Jar Medium Salsa [$1.00, I got it on sale]
1 Cup diced red onion [$1.00]
8 9″ Burrito Shells (you can always get bigger ones too!) [$1.30]
1lb of Hamburger meat (feel free to substitute chicken/steak) [$2.50]
1 Package of Taco Meat Seasoning

Ground Black Pepper
Ground Red Pepper
Crushed Red/Green Peppers (The stuff you put on pizza)
Garlic Powder

Optional Ingredients

Shredded Mexican Cheese
Sour Cream

Instructions

In a separate pan cook the entire bag of rice according to the instructions on the bag. Make sure it doesn’t dry out otherwise you’ll burn the rice! Also make sure you constantly stir this throughout the next few steps.

Start a large pan on medium heat. The kind of pan you could cook soup in. We’ll be eventually adding the rice to this mixture! Throw the red-onion, corn, the entire jar of salsa, and black beans (including the liquid!!! It makes excellent sauce).

In a separate pan fry the meat, poor off excess grease, and add the Taco Meat Seasoning mix to it.

Add your seasoned meat to the large pan with the red-onion/beans/salsa/corn. Stir.

Once the rice is done (soft to the bite) add it to the pan with the other ingredients. Turn down the heat to low. Stir.

Add the various seasonings to taste. Do not go over crazy on the Garlic Powder, we’re not making Italian burritos here!

Steam your burrito shells. To do this in the microwave take a large plate and put a bowl filled half way of water on top of it. You can set each individual burrito shell on top of the bowl of water and microwave for 20 seconds on each side. This does an excellent job of steaming the shell so it’ll be easily malleable.

Once the shell has been steamed add the Burrito mix you just made, cheese, sour cream, or whatever else you like. Roll, enjoy!

Servings

Makes 8-11 1lb burritos in a 9″ burrito shell.

Bottom Line

I ended up making 8 burritos at about $1.16 each. Because I had excess burrito filling left over, if I had more shells I could have made 2-3 more… putting the price to $0.85 each!

Into Diet Mode and a Walk in Grand Rapids

I have decided to start eating healthy again. For a while I have went off of my low-sodium healthy foods kick and now I want it back! I live exactly one mile from my apartment in downtown Grand Rapids, MI and thus have decided to walk to and from work every day. Today for lunch I have various fruits and rice which I added spices, carrots, onions and green-pepper to. Wish me good luck!

Low Sodium Breakfast Burritos

Introduction
Breakfast Burritoes I came home late one night with limited ingredients in my fridge that I wanted to use up. So, I grabbed a few ingredients, some tortilla shells, spices, and wa-la! Deliciousness was made. If you want a low-sodium version of this, just look for salt-free tortillas at the store. Meijer’s sells them in the non-refrigerated section of their ethnic foods. I’ve also found some tortillas at Family Fare made by Aztec that are salt free. They’re typically the smallest tortilla shells you can find. I have yet to find large burrito shells that are salt free.

Ingredients
2-3 Eggs
1 Green Pepper
1 Tomato
1/4 Red Onion
Small Tortilla Shells
Crushed/Dried red peppers
Fresh Ground Black Pepper
Garlic Powder
Salsa (optional)
Grated Cheese (optional)

Instructions
Finely dice up the peppers, onions and tomatoes as best you can. Cook the green peppers, onions, and tomatoes in a skillet on medium heat until the water from the tomatoes are almost evaporated. While cooking apply a light helping of red pepper, black pepper, and garlic powder to taste. Scramble up the eggs and poor them on top of the vegetables. Mix around until the eggs are fully cooked (they should look like scrambled eggs with stuff in them). In another skillet on low heat gently warm the tortilla shells for 30 seconds on each side. Once eggs are fully cooked put egg mixture in the warmed tortilla shells, apply cheese if desired, and wrap them up. Sometimes these are good with a little bit of salsa on them.
