This made me glum all morning. We must hurry. Superchef David Burke is nipping at our heels.

Maybe you have a different breed of architect in NYC than we have in Atlanta. By chance, I have consulted with a few architecture students about their work recently, and near the end of these meetings, I have asked them “Hey, by the way, have you ever heard of ‘Peacha Kucha’?”, or “Have you ever been to an architect ball?”, or “Do you have balls?”, and they just look at me like I am from Uranus. Are these discriminating features of students versus seasoned practitioners? Perhaps their balls simply haven’t had a chance to fall off yet due to their professional immaturity. Please advise.

Fly: I hate astronaut food, it’s gross. There’s a Korean astronaut and they have astro-kim chee which I am so not even going to try.

Maddie: Dude Vitamin Water has NO fruit juice in it. I’ts so confusing.

Hell yes! Finally…a good idea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It’s like vitamin water…only better! I like the idea of blank potato chips by the way. You should have DIY bags of flavor too.

Pony: Mrs. Pony is right. Those blank packing peanuts aren’t really meant to be eaten. They were probably strewn all over the floor of a warehouse and people just pick em up and dump em in boxes. I bet people roll around naked in it too. You have been eating blank peanuts that were near/in/up certainly places we need not mention but you know where they are.

Renato: Crackers, yes. Blank ones. I would flavor them with cracker flavor which tastes blank. Very clever.

Fly: Pedro is right, ooo-MAH-me.I think for FLY I will just take a bunch of photos from different series to make a super FLY post.

Dr. JimBob: Haha umami is the fifth flavor in Japanese. It’s what’s used to describe MSG kind of. That it ‘enhances’ the umami flavor/sense. But of course we’d have crap flavor. Of course! I mean if it’s a flavor it will be in the store.

Pedro: Dude I”m so busy with all these ideas I don’t understand why I”m poor. I mean these ideas are MONEY.

Steve: There’d be at least a dozen flavors of bacon (aged, Canadian, smoked, etc.) It’d probably sell the fastest.

When I really love the taste of something, getting full is just annoying because it prevents me from enjoying more deliciousness. This will magically solve that problem! Man, I could really go for about a case of bacon dust right now…

i think english pronuntiation would be
OO-MA-ME I got a London born friend to advise me on that.

Dude, you are having so many ideas for new places, gym, crumbs installation, homie world, UMAMI store, loving it. You can match it with my research about the cities of the future.

Interesting idea. If you mixed flavors with vitamins and put them in tablet form, then they could be marketed to astronauts and dieters under a different label. Astronauts and dieters will buy anything.

Also, I have often heard people exclaim “God, this tastes like crap” when they eat their food. Is this the lost “fifth” flavor? Will you have it in your store? Could ordinary people like me afford it?
