Not content to let KFC hold the title for World’s Greasiest Sandwich with its Double Down, a couple of enterprising Canadians have created ‘The Angry French Canadian’, with 5,343 calories and 207 grams of fat.
“Gravy and maple syrup is not a disgusting combination,” he said on Thursday. “It’s got the loving warmth of the poutine we all know in Quebec with this sweet taste of the pure maple syrup.”
Yum.
Meanwhile, back in the old Country, the town fathers in Pulham St Mary, Norfolk think that actual outdoor fireworks displays are too cold & dangerous. They brought in a fireworks projector from Japan and will use recorded sounds for Guy Fawkes Day.
”It is completely safe for people who don’t want to stand out in the wind and rain. Some children and older people don’t want to be outside in the cold.
”The projector takes away the safety risk and means you are in a nice warm place to watch the fireworks. It’s a really good change to standing outside on a cold night.
Fun.
Which group would you rather be part of?

Yes, thanks, I did see it. Appreciate the explanation. If you do fire up something political, especially if it involves your graphix skills, be sure to let us know here. You have a solid fan base!
Is MSNBC’s Chrissy Matthews hypnotized? He said he was going to “do everything I can to make sure the Obumma administration is a success.” Was he hypnotized then? Was he in a trance? Was the tingle in his tinkle the cause of his perpetual hypnotic state when it comes to The Chosen One? Will he be the next to be… Read more »
Hi, I’m Tim. I’m a mechanic, love family, blogging, football and NASCAR.
And I’m a Communist.
Ok, we cannot lose these people. I’ll donate to a campaign to keep Olbermann on, and we should support Congresswoman Pelosi’s bid to be Minority Leader. For the cause.

Don’t know if you saw it, but I left an answer to your question last eve.
Reminds me of a Northern Exposure episode where Ed, the young Alaskan native film buff, appeared to be sitting in front of a roaring fireplace in his home, until the camera pulled back and we saw it was a video of a roaring fireplace.
Actually, he was fired for violating a Code of Ethics provision published in the company hand book.
Any statement beyond that, even if equivocated in a subsequent sentence, is spin.
Interesting: Keith Olbermann has been suspended indefinitely because he failed to gain the network’s approval of his donations to 3 democratic candidates. On the one hand, I’m sure the restriction is in his contract, so I don’t fault the network for calling him out on it. On the other, Countdown is a program that is aimed directly at a left… Read more »
Just heard on the radio that MSNBC has suspended Keef Olby without pay. Seems Keef, who has Behar-ed about how much the parent company of Fox News donated to political causes, made some donations of his own, in violation of his employment terms.
Oopsie.
“We are swamped with people who leave various crappy places and then want to recreate them here.”
Add California to that list of crappy places.
#9 Pyro Good posting about Sharia Law being proactively nixed in Oklahoma. And there were some good no-nonsense comments in it. To wit, we don’t need your stinking Sharia Law in the US and if that is what Muslims want, they should go back to wherever they came from. It is so frustrating that we have lost rational control of… Read more »
Just MHO – unless there is “something” MAJOR-LEAGUE to be gained for America with this proposed trip to Mumbai……………..we “can’t AFFORD it” (even if it’s only ONE million for goodness sakes!)
Bob, WB, I think in all honesty, the question that should be asked about this trip, is are there things that do not have to happen, and people that do not have to go on this trip. And to that point I mean, if the POTUS is going there to for a certain reason then only those who are directly… Read more »
Objectivity: Because things are not always as they appear to be.
In political discourse, they’re rarely as they appear to be.
#25 bob I’ll admit to believing it when it was first published. One website posters that people tended to believe it because it fit in with the pattern the Obamas had established on their own – six vacations in a couple of months, flying AF1 to NYC for dinner, weekly WH concerts, etc. It’s like if you read that Charlie… Read more »
#23, BC here is another attempt to eliminate historical eveidence
Mindless: The president of the United States will be taking a trip over to India that is expected to cost the taxpayers $200 million a day. — Michele Bachmann I heard it on Limbaugh multiple times, read it here and elsewhere from multiple folks, and as usual my skepticism meter pegged. To say this figure — $200 million a day… Read more »
NJ Transit’s code of ethics requires employees to give notice to an ethics liaison officer before participating in political activities. An employee can then participate in political activities so long as state or federal law or agency rules don’t explicitly prohibit them and “the activity doesn’t conflict with the employee’s official duties.” In this case I agree with the ACLU… Read more »
#9 Pyro: Seeing as how the tolerant mooooslims want to build a shrine to their suicide bombers in NYC while maligning the sensitivities of the victims of said bombers, I am not terribly concerned that they may get their panties in a wad over a state declaring in advance that sharia law will not be considered in state affairs. If… Read more »
Mindless ejaculations…just what intelligent discourse is lacking.
Gotta hit the road back to beautiful unincorporated NW Harris County.
I’ll be checking in on you people via iPhone, so behave.
Joe Biden’s motorcade drivers must have studied the Metro Train of Doom.
The real reason for the mental state of NYC residents has been uncovered.
Here’s Myer’s wikipedia page.
Yes, but I don’t think you’d like the blog very much. It’s subtitled: Evolution, development, and random biological ejaculations from a godless liberal
got a link?
PZ Myers cracks down on trolls. Maybe. Lately, we’ve had a number of threads blow up into furious arguments, which is fine and normal, except that they’ve also been fueled by contributions from an assortment of new (Yay! We like new people!) noisemakers who don’t seem to respond well to argument themselves (Boo!), and there’s been a great deal of… Read more »

Greased Lightening, that sounds more like the after dinner event.
With regards to the first entry of the topic today I provide you with this site… Enjoy/.
#9 – THAT should be emulated by EVERY state (IMHO)
“Dear John,” she typed. “I never thought I would be so happy to write a Dear John letter…”
BRB – I think I got something in my eyes.
Our friends at CAIR are getting their seethe on over the law passed in Oklahoma banning the use of Sharia and/or international law in state court rulings.

Go for tots or rings.

Yeah but, a side order of fries.
Would you like a Barfy burger with your poutine?
