The first Guinness I ever had in the UK was pulled from under the bar, popped open, and placed on a coaster in front of me. It was warmer than room temperature. I think I was being punked by the barkeep but to this day I'm not sure...

Cheers!

Soon this will be free blueberries

 

[pvpeacock]

I used to live in Alaska, and I loved blueberry season. One day, I went out to pick blueberries in the forest behind my house. Because I was alone, I was a little concerned about bears, but heard a group of people in the forest talking and picking blueberries as well. I figured I would just get close to them, and their talking would keep the bears away. I picked berries for about an hour without actually seeing any of the group of talkers. I thought that before I went home, I would find them, let them know I been in the woods near them picking berries and thank them for keeping the bears away. When I found them, I discovered it was my neighbor out picking berries by himself. It was not a group of berry pickers at all. He laughed and explained that he always talks to himself when picking berries alone. I apologized for not finding him earlier so we could have at least talked to each other.

The Cuban ex would have hexxed him with santaria

Black bear in my neighbor's tree. As soon as I find my camera adapter for my 83mm refractor, I'll get a better picture. All you can see in this picture is his HUGE noggin, and his sunlit right arm/shoulder.

This is a decent cheese counter. She's cutting a 7 kilo round of Morbier, No.3 on my list of favorite cheese.

The goat cheeses are in a separate case to my right, and the Camembert/Brie type cheeses have a separate isle.

Yeah, you got to love it when the weather, air pollution from out west, and smog the east coast city corridor make for air quality alerts. We're affected out here today as well.

Does the "doctor photograph" at top of label indicate anything? regarding the veracity of the picture, that is..

No worries, but I wonder if phone/tablet viewers even notice that sort of thing.

Google quickly showed it as fake. There have been several I guess

I can't imagine anyone would have thought that was a real product.

I can't imagine anyone would have thought that was a real product.

I also never thought I’d see a fried chicken sandwich between two Krispy Kreme donuts either, but, well, no matter where we go, there we are.

Me neither, but is the world we are living in; ...this being be a plausible story is not out of question, just happens to not be in this case.

I'm not saying we should have stopped at hunter/gatherer societies, (I wonder if anyone had a choice,... but I digress).

But yeah, most of our species live way too far from self sustainable food/water source. Not to mention luxuries like heat and AC.

Having to rely on what is extruded from the corporate food factories.... That is not new, but seems to be getting worse. And the extruded paste seems to be of a lower quality.

Anyway, hopefully this post is amusing to some...been a long week at work.

I found a few of these pukurau (white basket fungus) on a popular local walking track on Thursday. I didn't realise how rare they were. They were gone on Friday so I guess someone had a nice lunch with them.
