What is this?

Its a fairly straight stick with another branching stick glue or otherwise permanently inserted into the side. If I recall the price was 10 dollars. I found it in a country crap store. There was a pile of them. I couldn't figure it out and need an explanation from the clerk.

Do you know what it is? I'll post the answer after I get a few comments.

Fun with Food: Cheep Frozen Pizza

It would seem that the manufacturer of this low-end frozen pepperoni pizza (Schwans) has managed to discover an important number... The number 7. You see the number 7 is the exact minimum number of pepperoni needed to call a frozen cheeze pizza a frozen pepperoni pizza. Any less than seven and it becomes unclear whether each piece will have a pepperoni on it. Though in Schwans defense the best eating method mandates that the pizza be cut in only 2 pieces, which are then folded over in sort of a taco configuration.

The persnickety amongst you probably think that that I misspelled "cheese" in the prior paragraph. I did not. I spelled it with a 'z' because I figure if Schwans wants to use nonstandard cheese ingredients (such as: modified food starch, potassium chloride, sodium citrate, sodium aluminum phosphate, sodium tripolyphosphate, tri-calcium phosphate, magnesium oxide, ferric orthophosphate, cyancobalamin pyridoxine hydrochloride, and others that choke my spell checker) then I can spell cheese with nonstandard cheese letters like 'z' or perhaps even 'qu'. A big fat slice of queeze, anyone?

One final note. This Schwans frozen pepperoni pizza (sold under the name "Tony's) uses in its marketing the trademarked phrase "Tastes Like Fun". I will leave it as an exercise for the reader to think of something fun that is also tasty. Chances are if you think of one its probably not an activity that is appropriate to be put on a pizza box.

Our New Famly Member

The next in the long line of crappy but free-to-cheap rides has come. This fine yellow seatless International Scout will be the new camping / gopher-getter. One day (probably in three years or so) it will die. But considering the price (free to a good home) it will fun to light it on fire and roll it off a cliff.

Featured in the photo is Robert pulling away from the curb. The unfamiliar with Robert and his projects might mistake the thing he is siting on as a seat. While you would be correct I promise that its not bolted to anything. Further one might think that there is a roll bar in the back. I promise that piece of safety equipment is sitting in the back and is not connected with the Scout in any way. One might thing that the doors on this "project truck" have been removed for painting or body work. Wrong again. No doors on the Scout. They were sent to the recycler for gas money. With the price of fuel today it will become a trend.

Solution for Global Warming

I've got the solution! We solve the problem... And no surprise... The its all the fault of the dimwits south of the equator. Thats right! Those lazy jerks have created so little land (and by extension so few plants) that when its summer in southern equator CO2 levels spike because less trees are warm and happy and breathing fast.

My solution? Lets help those southies out and crack open the sea floor (I'm thinking in the pacific or Indian oceans) and make a big new continent. Then the trees and other plants will grow and blam! Problem solved.

Your Welcome.
