Oh wait, we live in the US. Well kids there is something else to covet from our neighbors to the north other than maple creme cookies and socialized medicine.

Oh sure, us southerners can play on the site, check our bacon standing (98% thank you very much!), but the biggie? A DECADE of bacon. How sweet would that be? You have to be a resident of Canada though.
Thanks to Rob (some have said the Bacon Chris Doppelganger) for pointing this out.
Have you ever used Tinyurl? take a long URL and you make it tiny, been around forever, if you have never used it, then you probably aren't a geek. Well the genius behind bacongeek.com (one of my favorite baconlogs, see how I added bacon to blog there, man I am clever, seriously, this site is awesome it has two of the three elements that define me, bacon and geek, if it had Mountain Dew it would be like the ultimate trifecta, in fact I would begin to wonder if I had some sort of alternate me out there, but I digress.) they have launched a GREAT new site, http://bacn.me/ it is like tinyurl, but it is for bacon, now all those long url's that you wanna send to your favorite bacon friend can be shortened and thereby made sweet, by using http://bacn.me/, cool huh?
There is a post here (http://bacn.me/6a) that explains it way better than what I have done. So if you got a great link to share with us, all I can say is "bacon me".
Those crazy kids over at Oscar Mayer have put together a little social networking that launches today. Bacon Talk has been up for a while with some blog posting, and today they launch their "community" section. Think bacon-centric facebook/myspace but with less evil and more bacon. I am not a huge fan of social networking sites, but since this is a niche one and that niche is bacon, I am giving it a try. Come on by and sign up, its free, and add me as a friend if you like, my user name is "Bacon_Chris". See you there!
