Goody's Powder Cool Orange


MannDubinBlog knows how to create a hangover. You take some Whynatte and mix it with some Goldschlager (or Jagermeister, but MannDubinBlog loves a good WhySchlager); you take some whiskey and mix it with some pomegranate juice (for real: try it); you take some original Coors and a meaty hamburger and you are set for the night (vegetarian? try...no. go f**k yourself).

What to do the next morning? Hair of the dog? Vitamins? Exercise? Definitely no.

You wake up in the morning when the sun's warm, about 2...maybe 3 o'clock and take some Goody's Powder Cool Orange flavor. It has the same amazing effect of Goody's Original, but without that deathly taste. Honestly, it tastes kind of like orange Gatorade powder with a little bit of medicine. If you're reading this you're probably hungover because you spent last night taking shots with Blondie at the Clermont Lounge in between paying her to perform her special trick. Know how we know? We were the guys sitting next to you. We recommend you get your ass off your couch and head straight to your nearest drug store to pick up some Goody's Powder. And, while you're there, pick up a can of Whynatte 'cause you'll need a great tasting pick me up before you start again.

It's what we do best. Be safe, folks.

Wolverine: The Movie


Sorry Hugh Jackamn groupies but this was an utter disappointment of a film. It wasn't so much that this movie was awful, it was more that it just didn't really do anything. After leaving the theater I immediately wanted to go see another movie. Another, better movie, that would wash the remnants of this newest X-Men spin off from my memory.

Granted, I'm not the biggest fan of super hero movies in the first place and I know next to nothing about the X-Men but this movie was pretty much garbage.

Maybe I've been spoiled by the string of recent great super-hero movies that gave me false hope for this one. From The Dark Knight, to Transformers, to Iron Man, it is abundantly clear that Hollywood is capable of producing top notch films based on super-heroes. Wolverine is not one of those movies.

For the record, don't bother sitting through the 10 minutes of credits to see the bonus scene. It's 10 minutes of my life that I will never get back.
