Some Friday Fun!

Don't know about you, but I was ready for this weekend somewhere around, oh, Tuesday afternoon. So let's have some Friday Fun.

• I know I shouldn't be laughing.

• To promote its new 7 Layer Crunchwrap, Taco Bell will let one fan propose marriage during a TV baseball game using one of those virtual behind-the-plate signs (pictured here). In love with a baseball fan—and ready to tie the knot? Visit the Taco Bell site and click on the "7 Layers of Love" icon from April 26 through May 27. Once there, submit "7 reasons why your significant other would be lucky to marry you" as the winner will be chosen on the basis of creativity, appropriateness to theme, and the ability to display true love. (Sic. Whatever that is. Ack.)

• Caffeine Corollary #1: The cheaper it is, the more you can drink. (Granted, this is coming from an admitted latte freak, so maybe I need a new system of corollaries.) Anyway, Coffee Beanery says it will continue to offer 30 cent coffee on the 30th of every month. There are locations in most every state, so look for one near you if you're needing a cheap buzz this Monday.

• Don't care for the concept (it's casual dining, anyway, not quick-serve), but love the thoughtful gesture.

Enjoy your weekend. I'm about to get mine started correctly and directly.
