Dinner tonight?

I'm glad you asked. An old American favorite: Fried chicken.

And for the side fixin's? Another old American favorite: Pease*, spiced up with some Canadian bacon. I still had some in the freezer, and though the original recipe I'm following calls for salt pork, I di'n't have any and this sounded like a good substitute.

*Seriously, that's the original form of the word and it was used the same way we use the word "corn" still. There weren't no individual "pea"s in the original olden days.

HAHAHAHA! You HAVE to do this!

Scroll ahead to the "dueling banjos" part of this video, about 3:40 into it, and listen to them try to top each other:



Ha! Eric Weissberg and Tom Paxton. What's not to love?

Quote of the century

From the lovely Daughter Number Two:
"[DNT] is WTFing in WTFment"
Leave it to her to coin one of the greatest phrases of the 21st century.

And I fully intend to find a way to work that into a conversation.

Via my buddy Ira (my liberal friend who made me an honorary Jew):

HAHAHAHA!

That is so freakin' funny.

Great Googly Moogly

I expect that this exercize in the pursuit of "peace" will be about as effective as the original.
What will you do to make peace on 21 September?
I don't know specifically, but killing a few hundred terrorists would be a nice start.

Morning chuckle

Came across this while looking for something else. Hadn't heard it in years. Enjoy.
