    London broil this year, well marinated.

    Mrs. H ordered a prime rib from the local Coop to cook for Christmas dinner, but I don't know the per pound rate. It's always expensive -- but it's also always incredibly good.

    I hope nothing. I had a Tandy 386 PC in college in 86.

    I haven't thought of this computer for over 30 years, but after posting yesterday I realize I was wrong. In 1986 Tandy released the Tandy 3000 with a 286 chip, and that's what I bought.

    I wonder how many folks living in 2021 know what the substrate that's "underneath" the GIF above is?!

    "I dont like spam"

    I used to like spam 40 years ago. I didn't eat much of it though.

    Well, a few years ago I tried it again. I would now bet 100.00 the can had to have had a seal leak.

    I fried it in a pan like in the past.
    The smell wasn't appealing at all. I thought maybe it was my nose. I sat down to eat some and...I think I swallowed some, but I couldn't swallow anymore. No way.

    I wanted to like it, but it had to be bad. It had an expiration date of like 2025 or something like that. I looked the can over and didn't see any sign of damage at all.

    I really liked it back when I was younger. :p

    I haven't tried anymore since that last time. :#

    These were my very first introduction to high-end audio speakers. I still have them.

    Back in the 80s, I knew a guy whose girlfriend looked like an adult version of the Mason kid who appeared in those Deviled Ham commercials. He was frequently reminded of that fact by various persons in my social circle. :p

    The plane of the ecliptic.

    Well, the one at the lower right is a house on the hill, but the other three, from high to low, are Jupiter, Saturn (very dim, at this exposure), and Venus -- a little after dark tonight, 14Dec2021 B)

    Well, I mean, there's scrapple -- which makes deviled ham look like, I dunno, The Angel Gabriel or somethin'. You wanna talk about everything but the squeal. :|
    @SeleniumFalcon is in scrapple country, I do believe.

    DISCLAIMER: I effing love scrapple -- but I try pretty hard not to think too much about its provenance when actually eating some.

    ODD LINGUISTIC FACTOID: Down south, there is a product that's extremely similar to scrapple. It goes by the elegant culinary moniker of liver mush.

    mmmm-doggies!

    PS I am pretty sure we've had this conversation before on these august fora -- but now seemed like a good time to bring it up again. :#

    I ate a bunch of that around the age of 20 also. Good stuff. :p SORRY, that was Potted Meat I believe.

    Tom

    I tried to do something like that late this afternoon (i.e., about 3:45 pm) -- but I failed rather miserably.

    jwbk0tinoibh.png

    @treitz3 's photo puts me to mind of a great line from a great Bruce Cockburn song*
    Pearl held in black fingers
    Is the moon behind dry trees

    Pearl held in black fingers
    Bird inside the rib cage is beating to be free
    Use me while you can
    https://cockburnproject.net/songs&music/umwyc.html
    (emphasis added)
    ________________
    * Use Me While You Can. It's also a really good sounding song; kind of a slow burn with some interesting LF stuff going on. The whole album (Breakfast in New Orleans, Dinner in Timbuktu) is -- IMO, at least -- very, very good
