As we see the media close their eyes to the world outside their templates concerning the tea party protests this little youtube film via LGF is made even funnier:

Since there is about 2 seconds of very brief nudity it will likely be the most popular post I’ve ever put up. If that doesn’t get a rule 5 link nothing will.

Update: If you think this clip is in conflict with my Catholic beliefs remember we know God has a sense of humor because after all, he created man.

Update 2 Welcome RS McCain readers. take a look around and help me get those mythical million hits. See the SEIU help migrant workers with a second language. Marvel at two real miracles, See that even a sock puppet can make sense, learn why some books sell and others don’t. See the Obama/python connection, And check out my amazon reviews of products from novels, cd racks, Michelle Malkin’s latest, and an array of Doctor Who items.

Some things never change

Still reading Hart’s Volume one of American History told by Contemporaries. I still have 150 pages or so to go. It’s a very small font and interesting but slow reading, both due to the age and the style of the documents and of the writer, but there is one thing that jumped out at me today as I read it at Funspot in between games of Paragon pinball and Red Baron (sitdown model)

On page 388 there is a small section written in 1641 by a person named Thomas Lechford called “A note of what things I misliked in the Country (Massachusetts)” Professor Harts subnotes on this section had me laughing aloud. I quote them directly:

The first lawyer in the colony (se No 91 above): he was not kindly received and his notes are rather prejudiced.

I guess our early ancestors aren’t all that different than the rest of us, either that or lawyers haven’t changed in centuries.

At the beach today…

Mmmmm Spinach Noodles!

Posted: July 20, 2009 by datechguy in fun

For no particular reason I was looking up info on grains and stumbled upon this YouTube video on how to make homemade spinach noodles. The process seems pretty easy and doesn’t need a pasta machine.

Since Monty’s closed in Leominster there has been no place in town that sold dishes with spinach noodles so I haven’t had spinach Alfredo in quite a while. Maybe sooner or later I’ll give it a shot.
