Tuesday Bits and Pieces

This post is for Brent.

Classic commercials of the 60’s and 70’s. Talk about nostalgia and bringing back memories. Remember that crying Indian?

I don’t know what made me think of this, but I remember seeing this game live on WPIX when I was a kid. I’d never seen anyone so crazed before.

Duke beat Syracuse for the NCAA lacrosse national championship yesterday. This a more palatable memory, from 2009 (OK…this is more for me than Brent):

For all you Star Wars and Star Trek geeks, the physics of space battles.

This one really is for Brent…America’s coolest houses. BTW, number 2 is actually in New Canaan, so Brent you can easily visit. (I don’t get why it is such a big tourist attraction, but then again I don’t get a lot of things.)

And finally, an old KW favorite…bad lip reading:

    Nice.

    I out geeked my boss today and pointed out, in a Star Wars dialog tinged email exchange that, contrary to his spelling, it’s midi-chlorian, you know, with a hyphen.

    I felt triumphant.

    Isn’t bites & pieces normally a recipe thread? I made a decent kale and pine nut salad tonight if anyone wants the recipe……..hahaha……..my poor husband. I did enjoy the commercial though.

    Haha Scott. You could be right. Economists aren’t famous for their spelling.

      I always liked the bits and pieces posts, and never paid much attention to the recipes, so I was probably just projecting.

      Yeah, lms set me straight on that. Sorry about that…no recipes from me. I do an awesome weekend breakfast…bacon, eggs, sausage, pancakes, french toast…but not much needed in the way of recipes for that.

    Is that all in one meal or spread out over a three day weekend?

      For me I generally just have bacon and eggs. But I’ll make whatever the diners want and pancakes are usually a big favorite. Chocolate chip pancakes are preferred, but that is only an occasional treat.

      Breakfast is my thing. That and anything that goes on the grill. But I am a basic chef. Not a lot of complex recipes or really much thought at all needed for what I do.
