Welcome

I blame one of my former coworkers for introducing me to the evil Chipotle burrito. Those things are so good they are near addictive. I believe there was a point in time when he was going there just about every day for lunch. I know there was a point where him and my supervisor were going there once a week.

Today is free burrito day in Bloomington at the Chipolte near campus. They are giving the first taste away hoping to get more people hooked on their burritos and willing to pay for it next time. I am sure they will succeed since I became fairly addicted after going there the first time. There is even a web site for people who are huge fans http://www.chipotlefan.com/. *Disclamer* I only know about this site is because I was looking for the official site on Google. I am not that huge of a fan.

I had to head to the Starbucks in the same are to interview a subject for a project I have due tomorrow and decided to see if I could get through the burrito line fairly quickly.

I think in total it took me maybe 15-20 minutes from the point at which I started standing there. When I visited here for the first time in April of 05 they were just opening the Chipoltle and had a free burrito day. That day the line was wrapped all of the way around the block. I knew I wasn't that determined to get a free burrito.

I have noticed that pizza, another food that is a staple of college and so good for our health *sarcasm* is very cheap too. I am a fan of Papa Johns pizza as far as chain places go. In Tampa a large cheese pizza would run you about $12. Here I can get a large one topping pizza, breadsticks and a 2 liter of Coke for $10.

I also had pizza from this place called Avers the other night and they had basically the same deal as Papa Johns but the pizza was marginal at best, the breadsticks were pretty tasty though.

Mother Bears is my favorite non-chain place right now. The have some good specials but the problem is that I end up with too much food for one person as is what happened with Avers.
