Belly restaurant review
Pork belly, to some, is the just cut of meat that bacon is made from. Pork belly to those “in the know”, especially chefs, is one of the finest things to come out of a pig. Rarely do I see it on menus, which is unfortunate because it is a relatively inexpensive piece of meat.The Final Flight of the Conchords?
The show stars Bret Mckenzie and Jemaine Clement playing dimwitted versions of themselves as members of “New Zealand’s fourth most famous digi-folk duo,” Flight of the Conchords. They are having a rather unsuccessful time trying to carve out a niche in New York City

Oregon Country Fair '08
My favorite thing about the fair is how that the human body is viewed as an art-form, and there’s nothing shameful about showing off what you have. Long as we can’t see your lower genitalia, you’re fine. It’s still not polite to ogle or stare, you should just intake what’s going on, appreciate it as an expression of freedom and art, and move along. After all, they’re not showing off their stuff for pornographic reasons, they’re doing it to be free and express themselves and patrons should be respectful of that.

laughing, and sound checks were prevalent, along with laughter and Hacky Sacks meeting hippie feet—the smell of sage burning, the sun setting and their were lots of people. But, this was no ordinary day, this was the first ever May Day Festival on public land. And it was all-legit too.
