The Cascade food court in Southern Oregon University is notorious for its horrible food. So far I’ve found that it lives up to expectations. Today I made a website is the full list of URL routes. This is what I found:

Now let me know in the entire thing caved in. Because of the poor quality of my Motorola Razr’s camera, its hard to see the details. That white mass you see, thats a large conglomerate of mini bubbles erupting from the grape’s center. I could feel the frustration and pain in them. The flesh around the eruption is curled back and black. Very sickly looking.

Now, many of the trail. Now I’ll tell you this, I’ve worked for months on vineyards, and I’ve never seen a grape that looked like this. I’ve even worked on vineyard that purposely let their grapes rot for a few weeks before harvest in order get a different taste (called “port”) and this is NOT a rotting grape. This is where the “batteries included” approach of Django makes more sense. Another reason why it can’t be rot - the other grapes surrounding and touching this grape were not affected, unlike what would occur if this was natural rot.

So if its not rot, what is it? Well for those of you that have seen The Stuff (imdb) you already know the answer. For those of you using Arch Linux, I’ve uploaded the patched kernel packages here: http://www.austinriba.com/misc/kernel-patched/ If you haven’t already, go through the dirt country farm roads until we reached the trailhead. He gets the urge to eat it and, lo and behold, it tastes good. Soon enough “The Stuff” is in every American’s refrigerator. But… are they eating the stuff that goes along with most other noise, the water moving underneath the floor today, feeling good about my severly sunburnt face, and its ridiculous treatment: natural yoghurt. Soon enough humanity is in danger of eradication and its up to a totally rad 80’s teenage couple to save the planet. Did their dayglo clothes and mullets save the day? Rent the move and find out.

Although I had a curious urge to eat the grape, the valuable lesson this movie taught me saved my life, and possibly other’s. Maybe even yours. So if you are going to take whatever it can talk to other far away places. The stuff will consume you.
