Another post about Stefani's name

In Italian, the name "Steven" is "Stefano". Well, also in Italian, words that end in "o" are made plural by changing them to an "i". So, if you could pluralize the name Stefano, it would be, "Stefani". So, that means that Stefani is "Stevens". Maybe "Even Stevens". Hopefully that will help her out with her Disney-loving roommates.

Quest for the Supreme Greek Burger place

Since moving to Salt Lake I've noticed that there are a lot of Greek restaurants. Maybe this is becoming standard procedure in a lot of cities, but it was surprise to me. (My brother says that there are a lot of Greek restaurants in Denver, but I don't remember there being a lot of them.)

One type of restaurant that seems peculiarly popular is the Greek burger restaurant. I first saw this pattern with Crown Burger and Burger Supreme in Provo. (I always wondered if there was a connection between these two restaurants, since their menus are so similar, and I didn't realize until recently that there are tons of restaurants that follow this same pattern.)

So, now that I've moved to Salt Lake where these restaurants are so common, I feel that I must answer a certain calling, for which I'm sure I am destined: To identify the Best of these Greek burger restaurants!

To do this, I've decided that I must sample each of the Greek burger restaurants that I can find, and compare them. I want to do this as scientifically as possible (considering that it's completely subjective), so I'll be ordering the same items at each restaurant and rating them on a numeric scale. I'll use a 1-10 scale for the ratings, but since the ratings only make sense when placed relative to each other, I'll choose one restaurant as a basis for comparison: Crown Burger. (I would have chose Burger Supreme, because it's what I'm most familiar with and because it's universally awesome, but since I live in SLC now, I just won't be able to eat there often enough to make it the basis. Crown Burger makes the most sense of the others because it is the most popular and has the most locations.)

There will be four categories for comparison, based on the items unique to the Greek burger places: The pastrami burger, the gyro, french fries, and fry sauce. (I choose the pastrami burger instead of a regular burger because this seems to be the one that Greek places specialize in.)

And, this post is already beyond Ronnie-readable length, so I'll start the reviews with the next post. I hope that I can make the world a better place with this quest.

The Last Samuri

I saw this movie recently for the first time. Why didn't anyone tell me that there was a battle between ninjas and samuri in it? That was the most awesome thing ever! I'd always wondered about how those groups overlapped. Well, they overlapped with a lot of arrows and swords. It was awesome.

Stefroni

I just thought of that. Cool, huh?

Stadium Arcadium

The Red Hot Chili Peppers are great. That's all I have to say about that. Oh, and VP is 9 tracks away from my work.
