[livejournal.com profile] tepintzin mentions KFC's new "Famous Bowls", which is a bowl of mashed potatoes or rice, sweet corn and bite-sized pieces of popcorn chicken, with gravy poured over it and topped with a three-cheese blend.

In her words: "It's kind of Kentucky Fried Poutine. I'd call it Abomination except I WANT ONE."

I agree. And I want to try it as well.

The KFC's here in Qatar just came out with a bowl as well. The new "Rizo" bowls, with rice, green onion, chicken, and topped with chili pepper sauce or "arabiatta" sauce.

Maybe this weekend I'll try the Rizo bowls here.

There's geeky, and there's stupid.....

And this post on [livejournal.com profile] dot_pagan_snark goes into the "wrong" and "disturbing" parts of stupid.

"A local priestess of sacred sexuality calls herself Inara (actually admitting she got it from Firefly) and has named her temple...The Temple Serenity."

People scare me..........

Interesting article....

I have several friends who are either Jewish or of Jewish decent that also have tattoos.

This is an interesting article on attitudes towards such in that community

Since a friend of mine refused to believe this existed...

Here's the recipie for the infamous Tuna-Twinkie Souffle....

Tuna Twinkie Souffle

1 tablespoon rendered chicken fat, divided
12 Hostess Twinkies
Salt
White pepper
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
4 eggs, separated
2 cans tuna in oil, drained; reserve oil

Preheat oven to 350 F.
Grease a 7-inch souffle dish with 1 teaspoon of chicken fat and 1 teaspoon tuna oil.
Slice Twinkies in half lengthwise. Remove and reserve cream filling.
In a large food processor, combine Twinkie cakes, half of the Twinkie filling, and the remaining chicken fat and tuna oil.
Blend until the mixture has reached the consistency of a thin batter.
Transfer ingredients to a medium saucepan and cook over low heat. Stir in salt, white pepper and mustard. Remove from heat. Beat in egg yolks, one at a time, beating
thoroughly after each addition. Fold in tuna.
In a medium bowl, beat egg whites until stiff but not dry. Fold beaten egg whites into tuna mixture. Pour into greased souffle dish.
Bake in 350 oven 40 to 45 minutes, or until puffed and golden brown. Top with remaining Twinkie cream.

From a co-worker......

"Join the dynamic team here at SoulWaste. We want people who believe in the hi-tech religion and who are willing to work 60 hour weeks under florescent lights in grey buildings with windows that don't open (or no windows). After all, the earth will stop rotating on its axis if our product doesn't get out the door before the competition.

You must be a mindless zealot who's idea of a good time is playing Macintosh computer games on nights and weekends and who's conversations with other people sound like a Wang commercial. You must believe in the Yuppie vision of the world as shown in Wang, H-P, and AT&T commercials where people are shown thinking about their job while swimming or walking their dog and where everybody is inadequate if they haven't purchased the latest wiz-bang box or felt anxious guilt if their office system isn't networked to everything more hi-tech than a Smith-Corona typewriter.

Yes, we don't just want your hours at SoulWaste--we want your soul!!

Qualifications:

1. Must be willing to sacrifice any semblance of real life for carrots held at the end of sticks i.e. BIG BUCKS.
2. Must have huge repertoire of computer buzzwords in vocabulary.
3. Must feel the same degree of mania as company management when products are late getting out the door.
4. Must have no social life--'cause we're gonna fatigue you so much you ain't gonna have one anyway.
5. Oh, yeah, must know the C programming language.

Direct inquiries to this dynamic and growing conspiracy, I mean, er, company to:

Star Trek blade seized

"THIS five-foot martial arts sword capable of beheading a man was recovered by shocked cops in a house raid.
The terrifying Batleth weapon is identical to one wielded by Klingon aliens in the Star Trek sci-fi films.

Officers seized the three-handled sword — which has huge pointed blades at either end — at a home in Gloucester."


(Side note: They're getting people to turn in KNIVES???? The police demanding 5 year minimum sentences for carrying a knife? And I thought California had retarded knife laws! I have sharper and better looking knives in my kitchen supplies!! First guns, then knives, what's next, banning martial arts??)
