    Vintage Food

    Top Sirloin is also featured in this week's advertising circular. I wonder if Albertsons and The Bearded Butchers are working together to put out the videos and advertise the meat on sale. The USDA NAMP/IMPS codes related to this subprimal cut are 181A and 184. 181A is obtained from...

    Vintage Food

    What is "vintage"? Can food be vintage? How old does it have to be? If a product has been around for 50 years, or 100 years, considered vintage? I'm old. Old enough that young people point their fingers at me and laugh. I've been eating tri-tip since I was a kid. Probably because my Dad...

    Self Rediscovery

    I get a call on my beeper. The last four numbers began with a 9. As in XXX-XXX-9XXX. Back in those days, public pay phones started the last 4 digits with a 9. I recognized the number. The pay phone at the bar. Which meant I didn't call back. I called The Old Man. He owned the bar. He...

    Lunch, Anybody?

    The classic which is not a classic. But it's what the tourists believe is a classic. Clam chowder in a bread bowl. Nobody wastes food like that at home. Yes. We do eat clam chowder. Clams are local. We eat our soup in a bowl. The bread, is either on the side for dipping, or part of a...

    Apparently, while searching for the missing baby, the cops were drinking on the job. The Chief is disappointed. Imagine how the citizens of that city feel.

    Self Rediscovery

    Friday night. I stayed home to watch Miami Vice before going to the bar. As usual, there was no parking. I pull the Ford Tempo into a back alley, and park with the passenger side up on the sidewalk next to a building. For maybe the 100th time since I got the car, I muttered to myself that...

    Leather Police Jackets

    I don't have an old jacket from Taylor for comparison. The jackets that I do have from Taylor are tough as nails. I'm not an expert. But I am impressed. Thick, heavy leather. No broken zippers. No broken snaps. No broken threads. After a few decades, they are still in excellent...

    Experimenting on foods.

    The cat is out of the bag. A local reporter has written an article, which tells the rest of the world, that the local clam chowder and sourdough bread bowl is not that good. And she reveals that locals don't eat it. Only tourist...

    Experimenting on foods.

    For the most part, I try to keep a low profile. It doesn't always work. Inevitably, sometimes I catch the wrong attention. I had to do a little service work on my old Jeep. The house is on a hill. So I have to find a parking spot on flat ground, not blocking someone's driveway, and in an...

    This is in Santa Clara County, California. The same county where the Sheriff is accused of accepting items of value from Apple Computers, in exchange for issuing "concealed carry weapons" permits. Yes, I know what some people are thinking. "CCW" permits do exist in California. They are...

    Current USAF Issue A-2s

    It looks okay to me. I have a jacket which is very similar. I suspect that I like it as a functional item. I have zero consideration for what may have been worn 80 or 100 years ago. If someone wants authenticity, and has to have the same jacket that was used in the 1920's, 1930's, or...

    Your Most Disturbing Realizations

    Thanks to "cancel culture", we may never see any of the Naked Gun movies again. I haven't seen reruns of The Cosby Show lately. The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air will probably disappear from syndication as well. And depending on how this "Johnny Depp vs Amber Heard" fiasco turns out - we...

    Supposedly, the grandmother was shopping. The person who went shopping with grandma & the baby, was arrested. There is more to this story. Maybe the police will now shut off the information pipeline, as releasing details of an investigation could hamper the investigation. The story will...

    Food source. I want to taste a brontosaurus burger. The Flintstones talked about it all the time. The girls went to "nose" the powder. I knew girls like that. Cocaine is a helluva drug. My nephew has dinosaur toys. At 4, he knew different dinosaurs by name. My niece, never played...
