I didn’t feel like cooking anything for lunch so I went to the Taco Bell drive thru. Upon returning to work, I discovered that they had included *five* mints with my order. One mint is a nice gesture, two or three perhaps a bit much, but *five* mints is right out! Was my breath that bad? Did the putrid stench from my oral cavity knock the girl back on her heels when I drove up?

I would have thought that my recent addiction to breath mints a few months ago would have taken care of any breath problems I might have had. I have a Smint box at work, in the car and on my desk at home. Instead of buying a single box of them I grabbed the entire case. I always have a mint after eating but now I take one for no reason. Some people have a nervous twitch, I just pop a smint down the hatch. I guess there are worse habits and the results are surprisingly refreshing.

I’m regretting my upgrade to Opera 6.01 beta 1 for Linux. It’s less stable, has font issues by showing a black splotch instead of the question mark it used to have and it is feeling sluggish. The whole reason I liked Opera is that it was quick and responsive. What does a guy have to do to get a decent browser?
