Science!!!

Not the sarcastic kinda about “A study shows that men are attracted to big boobs, and a great butt, particularly on women” kind of SCIENCE!!!! but Science science.

Norman Borlaug has been dead for more than 2 years, and He’s STILL feeding hungry people, and the enviro’s are STILL (it’s not in the article, but I know it’s happening in the background) trying to starve them.

I don’t know why

but I found this line funny from a post put up by Hugh Hewitt.

Does anyone, anyone at all, believe that this advisory board will accomplish anything at all except the expenditure of funds on travel, meetings and a report no one will read?

Hugh was a part of Washington and took part in this stuff, and his clear disdain for the basic machinations of Washington is very refreshing.  Wanna get rid of the chaff and find the wheat who is willing to actually work for a purpose?  From now on, all government meetings will take place over skype or goto meeting.  All the freeriders will quit and join various “charitable” foundations, or become professors and leave our government alone.

It’s always good.

Can’t stand either of them, but they are who they are, and it’s nice to see them do something like this for the troops.

Here’s something the new congress can cut.

Governmental Organizations that are fundamentally hypocritical.

Seems like a fair start.

Tell me stop eating stuff, that you are telling me to eat, better yet, how about you stop telling me to do anything unless you are my mom, my wife, my employer or my Plt Commander, that seems like a fair layout for legislative temperance.

“If you wouldn’t let your mom, wife/husband(but we all know that women never listen  🙂 employer or Plt Commander tell you to do something in particular, then we shouldn’t pass any law that would ask someone to do something that their mom, wife/husband(yeah, husband, they are so full of authority) employer or Plt Commander wouldn’t ask them to do.”

I think I have a very confusing, and somewhat non-sensical campaign slogan there.

(needed to get the foul languaged header off of the top page.)

That explains much!

Smoked salmon salad

Bacon bits

This is amazing.

Probably NSFW.

A little bird told me…

That PattyAnn likes lamb.

Brewfan’s description of his Easter roasted lamb leg inspired me to get a couple of lamb shanks and throw them in the slow cooker.

Smells yummy. Three more hours until they are fall off the bone tender.

Update: Wow, that was the best lamb I’ve ever had. Bar none.  And, I’ve eaten a lot of lamb in my day. Even over lamb chops, which I love.

Recipe below the jump.

Not gonna suck

I think this is going to be pretty good in about five hours.

This IS a tasty burger

The Food Network recently visited a place where I ate a lot of greasy (but good) burgers during my college days. Making sure that you order correctly is part of the of the experience. Not as crazy as the hot dog joint a few posts down, but a great place none the less.

Crazy Jim’s Blimpy Burger.

Tarantino is an asshole

Anyone surprised?

I’m homesick

I used to live about two blocks from this place.

The producers of the show tried to make this into a social commentary. I never saw anything but good humored fun. Plus, they ALWAYS start it.

What do you expect from a bunch of drunks?

Totally Awesome Awesomeness

I like bacon. A lot.

Who doesn’t?

A lot of other people must love bacon too, based on the amount of hits I get every day on the Deep Fried Bacon Cheese and Beer Dog  post. I live blogged my Bacon Wrapped Steak experience and have previously found such wonders as the Bacon Martini and the Bacon Scented Tuxedo.

But, I think I have met my match when it comes to bacony bliss.

Everyone’s tried a bacon cheeseburger, but this guy/genius made a Bacon Cheese Baconburger. The burger is made out of — bacon.  And, then topped with bacon! Wonderful. Lot’s of yummy pictures.

He also made Bacon Cereal and the Ultimate Bacon Sandwich.

Dude’s got skillz.

Eat your veggies and you’ll get smarter..

Or at least your food will…

Fractal broccoli — it’s real.

Question. What do you get when you take a bunch of hippies that have nothing else to do (heh) and give them a bunch of vegetables and power tools and tell them to put together an orchestra?

Answer. Pretty much the same thing you’d get from a bunch of smelly hippies sitting around banging out of rhythm on empty buckets like they normally do. Except WAY more obnoxious.

Dinner blogging — bacon wrapped steak

So, I have some bacon left over from the bacon wrapped turkey that I made for T-Day and I got a box of Omaha Steaks the other day.

What to do?

Bacon wrapped New York strip steaks? Sounds good to me.

First, season with fresh ground pepper and salt — then wrap those suckers:

Toss them in the pan:

Cook until a perfect 139 degrees internal temperature:

Eat:

Any questions?

Assault with a deadly — pickle

More proof that it’s not weird enough unless it happens here in Michigan.

Mich. man gets probation for assault with pickle

NILES, Mich. — Talk about being in a pickle: A judge gave a 35-year-old man probation in a case that police said involved an assault with pickles.

According to police reports, the pickle problems began when Bobby Lee Bolen of Buchanan was hanging out at his then-friend Jody Lee’s home in Buchanan on Aug. 20.

Bolen went to the refrigerator and helped himself to some pickles. According to the report, Lee told Bolen he couldn’t afford to feed everyone and not to eat his pickles. Bolen then began yelling and swearing and stormed out, according to the report.

Later, Bolen barged back into the house and got into an argument with Lee. Lee told police Bolen slammed him down on the couch and threw two large pickles at him and said, “Here’s your damn pickles.”

It is not known whether they were able to save the pickles.

SMC

While Wickedpinto is taking a little break/rehab, he asked me to keep up the Sunday Morning Cartoon (SMC). Well, I’m not much for cartoons — so I had to improvise a little.

I give you this weeks SMC — see if you can figure out what the ‘C’ stands for this week.

Found at TBIFOC.

Don’t try this at home

Unlike this chick — some guy decided it would be fun to get his girlfriend to eat a tablespoon of cinnamon and videotape it. Hilarity ensues.

Fake, but way too accurate

This is just wrong.

Jones Soda’s latest flavors: dirt, sweat

Ever wonder what the Seahawks’ locker room tastes like after a big game?

Apparently, Jones Soda Co. thinks Seattle NFL fans want to know. The company started taking online pre-orders Thursday for a five-pack of sodas with flavors it says reflect the hard work of professional football players.

Clare Bowles, a spokeswoman for the Seattle-based company, said the four literally named flavors — Dirt, Sports Cream, Perspiration and Natural Field Turf — are “pretty lifelike.”

“Perspiration Soda is kind of salty tasting,” she said, with a slightly higher sodium content than the average soda, with a smooth, “stinky football sock” finish.
