BBC or Bend Brewing Company – Bend Oregon

Bend Brewing Company

One of my favorite places to dine is the Bend Brewing Company or BBC. It’s located in a great spot just off of Mirror Pond. It’s pretty cool to look out onto the water or just at the swaying trees. Maybe it’s me that’s swaying after a couple pints of Outback Ale. The photos of the view are here mainly cause they will be going away eventually.


There is a company that is building condos all around the BBC. The story I heard is that this company came in and offered the owners money for the land but nothing for the business. I heard that they were expecting them to accept but the BBC thankfully did not. Now this company is building the condos all around the BBC. So, eventually this view will probably go away.

The food at the Bend Brewing Company is always delicious. I went with my normal BBQ Turkey on Focaccia (I pronounce it pho-kaw-shia – I’m going to name one of my kids Phokawshia) and a salad. Now the BBQ Turkey normally does not come on Focaccia. It’s now on a hoagie roll. They changed it so it would be easier to do half sandwiches. Plus, I normally do not have the salad since the BBC has probably the best French fries in town. So I guess I didn’t go with my normal at all. Wanna fight about it?


Anyway, today the BBQ Turkey was extra special cause the turkey was chopped up a bit instead of it’s normal full slices folded over. They probably gave me all the scrap pieces but whatever, it made the sandwich better. Wanna fight about it?

The wife chose to try the soup of the day, a split pea with barley and a half turkey club. What is it with getting that one slice of bacon that isn’t cut in half? Who eats it like that? Doesn’t everyone have to take the sandwich apart and break their own bacon so it fits on the sandwich? Does it look bad if they were to just cut the bacon in half? I would prefer not to have to touch my own bacon.


She said it was great regardless. She didn’t share a bite of her lunch today so I can’t say for sure if I approve or not but most likely it was great. I have not had a problem with anything at the BBC yet. I didn’t mind about her hoarding all her food, I was way too busy stuffing my face with BBQ sauce covered turkey to give a … hoot.

BOR on the Road – Plane Snack

2006/07/21

Yeah so here’s a look into my glamorous lifestyle. Flying out of Redmond to SF is a real treat especially when you’re treated like a king by United Air. Let me show you what I mean…


Yeah that’s right, not only did they give me 8.5 ml of spring water from Dannon (don’t they make yogurt) but they also provided me with a single serving of PLANE SNACK. What the hell is a PLANE SNACK?!?! Seriously? I must be in heaven. No more delicious peanuts for me, no more pretzel snack mix, no more edible food. Nope, I’m big time now, I get PLANE SNACK. MMMMM MMMM good!

Lordy, plane snack….I ate two pieces of plan snack and it made me drink the last of my 8.5 ml of yogurt water.

Hey, can I post a request…nay, a favor if you will, to anyone that might possibly read this in the future? Who the hell do you think you are by reclining your seat on a plane? Are we really that desperate for 3 more inches of room that we are willing to yank 3 inches from your fellow human being behind you?

I hate you for putting your seat back, I want to kick you in the back of the head but I can’t because my knees are locking into position just below the tray table.

Think about this. The people in the second to last row are asked by the flight attendant to please not recline since the people in the last row can not. It’s bad enough they rest their heads against the toilet wall and get to smell your anus as you depart.

Now, this makes the second to last row…the last row! They can not recline their seats cause it’s unfair to the people behind them and BRAVO to you who do not torture the poor toilet guard.

Since the second to last row is asked not to recline, why not tell the third to last row not to recline. Then, the fourth, fifth, sixth, and so on. You get the idea.

Basically, DO NOT RECLINE YOUR DAMN SEAT!!! When I get rich I’m going to give the person in front of me cash if they do not recline. Well, I’ll randomly select someone cause I’ll be in first class or on my own plane…with my own brand of Plane Snack made with diamonds…they make my dookie twinkle!
