Say! Flickr does video! How long has that been going on? Oh. Not Long at all.

Let's see here.




No sound on these, it seems... or maybe it's just this cellphone format. I'll have to try camera avi and mov to be sure.



YESTERDAY WAS ICE CREAM TRUCK DAY! Winter is now officially over. Per BHK -

"GUESS WHAT? The ice cream truck came through today! It was playing a lazy rhythm'ed version of "She'll be Comin' 'Round the Mountain" interspersed with horn beeps and whistles! I swear it made me tear up a bit just cause it was the harbinger of warm weather and all the good things that brings."

BHK gave me more giant salad for yesterday's lunch... Thank goodness for tasty cheese and fresh spinach / beans! The pump diet spray-dressing isn't my fave, though.. I think I'll stick with light Italian or some other vinaigrette variant. I enjoy having healthy food that also tastes good. Dieting has made me a lot hungrier these days.

Stuffed Peppers for din-din last night. Yum and nom.



YouTube: Buzz Aldrin punches Lunar Landing Conspiracy Theorist Bart Sibrel in the Face.

According to Aldrin, he was lured to a Beverly Hills hotel under the pretext of an interview on space for a Japanese children's television show. When he arrived, Aldrin claims Sibrel was there demanding that he swear on a Bible that he had walked on the moon.

When Aldrin refused, Sibrel called him a coward, a liar, and a thief. Aldrin gave Sibrel a punch in the jaw, which was recorded. Sibrel later attempted to use the tape to convince police and prosecutors that he was the victim of an assault. However, it was decided that Aldrin had been provoked, and did not actually injure Sibrel, and no charges were filed. Many talk show hosts aired the clip, making Sibrel the butt of jokes.


Sibrel's claims of a lunar landing hoax have been widely dismissed by the scientific and space science communities.




They wanted to honor Gygax's memory. So here it is.

90 seconds is good for a PSA or quickie blurb... I'm sort of sad that cell-phone vids don't keep sound quite yet.

Bring that spray dressing home and we'll switch it out for something tastier ok?

Now I've got "She''ll be comin' 'round the mountain" stuck in my head. especially the six white horses part.

Fake dressing can ruin an otherwise lovely salad. But I've found that a little "real" vinaigrette actually goes a long way. (Newman's Own makes a couple good ones...but homemade is even better!) It helps to toss the greens with the dressing, so everything is evenly coated. That way, you don't get all your flavor in the first couple of forksful. Of course, I'd really rather have a glug of creamy bleu cheese dressing (and some french on top of that). But I try to reserve that naughtiness for special occasions.

A good toss and mix can make all the difference! I haven't made a homemade dressing lke that yet... maybe i'm due!

Hey you call Buzz a coward and a liar and you are gonna quite justifiably get punched in the face.
Funny how the first thing that guy said after getting hit was did you get that on camera, little weasel.
