Burton Speaks

Irony: i·ro·ny n The use of words to express something different from and often opposite to their literal meaning.

I'm Burton from Portland, Oregon, United States. I'm 33 and live in the Portland Metro Area. I work hard. I drive fast. I play often. I'm sarcastic, appreciate irony, and find humor in even the darkest of events. I'm non-traditional. I question authority. I'm a know-it-all and a planner. And most days, I wake up thinking the world is full of fundamentally good people... and have a lot of problems when I'm proven wrong. Any other questions?

A Prayer is Answered

Friday, March 09, 2007

Thanks to Fark.com, I just found out that a prayer of mine has been answered. If you recall, back in March of 2006 I wished that doughnuts could be "good for you." It seems that now they are!

According to this article (also here) a company called RSuper Foods in Pittsburgh (founded by an ex-Steelers running back) has developed a doughnut packed with nutrients that tastes just like a normal doughnut! Is this news or what?

Of course - as even the articles point out - it's not just a normal doughnut that's bad for you; it's the dozen you (or I) eat at a time ('cause they're so damn delicious) that's the problem. Now if only someone could reduce the calorie count by a factor of 12, we'd be set!
