Deadbeats and Cereal Killers

BREAKING NEWS FLASH!
Who peed in your breakfast cereal today? Tinkles did! Contains 25% real elephant urine.



I discovered some intriguing cereal boxes over at Cereal Killers.

Speaking of deadbeats and breakfast cereal I'm really beginning to wonder if Casey will do anything worthy of another 6 Degrees of Casey Serin game...

Kellogg’s Frosted Flakes isn't so bad after all!

Too bad I didn’t have this information on hand as a kid when I was eying all of the fun breakfast cereals seen on TV like Cap'n Crunch and Froot Loops, but was stuck with the healthy crap lacking a Junior Undercover Agent code ring.

For many kids, commercial breakfast cereal is the main source of daily vitamins and minerals. Take a look at Kellogg’s Frosted Flakes reduced-sugar cereal. A serving provides 25 percent of the recommended daily intake of seven essential nutrients, including iron, folic acid and other B vitamins. It also provides 10 percent of the recommended intake for vitamins A, C and D.
Now look at its organic equivalent: EnviroKidz Organic Amazon Frosted Flakes. The only ingredients are organic cornmeal, organic evaporated cane juice and sea salt. A serving gives kids only 2 percent of the recommended daily intake for vitamin A and iron, according to the label.

"John Draper was known as Captain Crunch..."

For the second week in a row Wagga is the 6 Degrees of Casey Serin winner!
Woohoo! Win-Win!

In case you missed it here's the award winning 6 Degrees of Casey Serin to Cap'n Crunch entry:

John Draper was known as Captain Crunch
in the '70s for his ability to steal long-distance phone calls. The whistle he originally used
was a prize in the Cap'n Crunch cereal box. It's frequency was 2600 Hertz. He served time in jail for his exploits. He created a device known as the "Blue Box", which became a favourite of phreaks worldwide. He later went on to living in a van and also travelled to Australia, where he designed and wrote web sites to make a living. He is currently pretty much a homeless person with a laptop. Mr. Draper now lives on the margins of this affluent world, still striving to carve out a role in the business mainstream.

Connecting Mr. Draper to kc looks really tough, espcially as he (Mr. Draper) has held W2 jobs with Apple & Autodesk, among others.

Let's try this:

2600 Hertz plus kc's putative IQ gets us to 2731.
Aspeth's "12 Years..." gets us to 2743.
The first reported kc scam was the "Ponzi scheme" at age 14, now we have 2757.
And finally, kc was $2.2 million in debt. As a million is a small number, a simple float roundup yields 2.

Grand Total is 2759.
That number rings a bell, somewhere...
