I think both get vile reviews. Apparently Marmite has a strong umami taste. I may rescue the jar and use it for stews when winter rolls around. Agreed on the umami taste... And its flavor is completely different from thermite Edited August 20Aug 20 by NWBuck

The last couple years of my Dad's life he was wheelchair bound after a series of strokes. Physically he was impaired but his mind was still pretty sharp. His last Thanksgiving, we had him out to our house for dinner and wheeled him to the head of the table, his rightful place. Mid-meal he had a puzzled look on his face and I asked if he was OK. He deadpanned that he was pissing his depends so that I wouldn't have to disrupt my meal to take him to the bathroom. Pretty thoughtful of him.

August 21Aug 21 I watched Empire Strikes Back as a kid, and could have sworn that when Luke jumped off the platform, Darth Vader used the force to lift him back onto the platform, but let him go when Luke jumped again. I was 5 at the time, so I did not knowingly smoking dope or drop acid. Weird.

August 22Aug 22 While waiting for my focaccia dough to rise, I searched youtube to satisfy my curiosity about how commercial yeast is produced. This led to videos about microscopic yeast activity, and a science channel of other microscopic phenomena... ...and one thing after another, I discovered something I wish now I no longer know: the existence of fecal transplants.

It’s baffling. counterpoint he made this happen: Sometimes the success of someone in stage or screen has as much to do with their nature off stage and screen than anything else. For example, your cello teacher will tell you never, ever to try to imitate Yo Yo Ma, because his technique is "terrible." While he's the most famous cellist alive, he's by no means the best. But everyone who's ever worked with him or met him will praise his kind and unegotistical nature, an extreme rarity for anyone at that level. Look at everyone in that video above. They are having a BLAST. And what makes a person a good talk show host/interviewer is, more than anything, how they make the guests feel and get them talking about themselves. Rick Beato needed a certain number of subscribers to get the interviews he wanted, but then in those interviews it's clear it's not just because of his subscriber base. Brian May tells him how he watches Beato's channel. Guys like Maynard James Keenan, famous for hating and avoiding interviews, not only do the interviews, they have enough of a good time that they come back for seconds. The guests LIGHT UP as he gets them talking about their favorite things. I don't follow Fallon much, but shit, man, I've seen the type, and I'll not begrudge him any of the success he's had.

August 23Aug 23 My wife and I are just fed up with buying clothes. These days the best stuff isn’t in stores, and if it is, not in your size. The stuff in the internet comes in and either doesn’t fit right or has something about it that makes it a no go. It’s just gotten ridiculous. We used to never return merchandise but now we are having to do it all the time. Damn I wish the retail clothing industry would have survived.

August 25Aug 25 Popular Post I found the carcass of a dog on my property this afternoon. It looks like someone had him chained up, but the chain came unhooked and the dog wandered away, dragging the chain. The chain got tangled in some brush toward the back of my place, in an area where I rarely go, and the dog died there. Poor thing. I wish that I had found it when it first got tangled. It's apparent that it struggled for a while. The sheriff's department is going to see if anyone in the area has reported a missing dog, but it's unlikely that the owner will be found. The carcass has been there a while and been picked over. There was no tag, and if it was chipped the scavengers have almost certainly eaten the chip. I'm both very sad and incredibly pissed.

August 30Aug 30 Refrigerator doors are under appreciated with how much rough handling they take while supporting weight (eg milk jugs) distant from the hinges and constant use, but close smoothly and create an airtight seal every time.
August 31Aug 31 Went to Lowe’s today and got fleeced… no, not by Lowe’s but by the Boy Scouts with their popcorn sale. Twenty-fucking-dollars for nothing more than a snack sized bag. Goddamn.
August 31Aug 31 Musescore can suck my dick. They more or less have a monopoly on sheet music nowadays, so you have to use them. But they have a deceptive interface that tricks you into agreeing to a $60 subscription fee. It's caught me twice. After the first time, I'm trying very hard to make sure I get the non-subscription purchase, and I still somehow ended up getting it. And they're refusing to give me a refund.

September 1Sep 1 Years ago, I told my wife I thought car dealers sales cubicles were bugged so they could hear your conversation when they went to “talk to the manager.” I feel vindicated now.
September 1Sep 1 Shit I hope not. Wife and I were discussing if our salesperson was gay while he went to talk to his Mgr. He had us following him and I don’t remember what song was playing but he was snapping his fingers. So now we weren’t sure he heard us and mocking us or he’s really gay.
