From the Kellogg Company wikipedia page, OKs cereal, from the early 1960's, was an...

Oat-based cereal physically resembling the competing brand Cheerios, with half the OKs shaped like letter O's and the other half shaped like K's, but didn't taste like Cheerios. OKs originally featured a Scottish bagpiper on the box; this was replaced by the more familiar Yogi Bear.

Who wouldn't want to eat a bowl of utter complacency every morning?

Do you C the inhumanity in this?

Q: Now this must be easy, but how can sum two NSNumber? Is like:
[one floatValue] + [two floatValue]

or does there exist a better way?

 

A: There is not really a better way, but you really should not be doing this if you can avoid it. NSNumber exists as a wrapper to scalar numbers so you can store them in collections and pass them polymorphically with other NSObjects. They are not really used to store numbers in actual math. If you do math on them it is much slower than performing the operation on just the scalars, which is probably why there are no convenience methods for it.

Looks like I'll be in the cheapseats at Camden Yards a little more this year.

The last time it happened, Bill Clinton was at the White House and Justin Bieber hadn't been born. 

National Bohemian hasn't been on tap at an Orioles stadium since 1992.

But that will change on April 4, the home season opener. Pabst Brewing Company has signed a deal that will bring the beer on draft to Camden Yards, Baltimore sales rep Rachel Warren said over the weekend.

Along with the return of Boh on draft to bars, the deal is part of the company's push to rejuvenate the old brand. 

Boh and the Orioles have a long history going back to 1954. 

It used to be the team's official beer. And the chairman of the brewery, Jerry Hoffberger, was a majority owner of the Orioles from 1965 to 1979.

The concessionaire stopped selling the beer in 1992 when the team moved from Memorial Stadium to Camden Yards.

Even I know that National Boh is categorically bad -- I might go so far as to say FOUL -- but I do look forward to drinking a few awful cupfuls with my favorite Baltimorons later this year.  Hello,  Recession: O's Fans, you've got your Boh back!

 

Hello, Lionel.

Only at the very tail-end of winter do I really crave some surfy sub-pop.  This will suffice.
