    MA-1 Flight jacket

    Authentic or not? I don't know. I didn't undress one of these guys to inspect the garment. The MA-1 style is still pretty popular.

    Lunch, Anybody?

    Cheap eats. Beef shoulder. Butchers call it chuck. Chuck is so tough, that it's usually ground for hamburger meat. Fill the bottom of the roasting pan with carrots. No roasting pan rack needed. The meat will sit on the carrots. Insert garlic cloves into the seams of the meat. Cover...

    Experimenting on foods.

    The X would say, "what do you call that?" I don't call it anything. It's just food. I'm Chinese. I made it. So it's Chinese Food. Fill a pot with chopped tomatoes. Cook it until it's reduced by 75%. The pot of tomatoes should only be a quarter full. Cook a piece of inexpensive, low...

    Self Rediscovery

    The Big Game. My team didn't make it. They didn't even come close. Loyal fanatics tend to wager on their favorite teams, for no other reason than that they are loyal to their hometown sports. A lot of money was made on the streets this season. Bookies cleaned up with every game. There was...

    Self Rediscovery

    It was supposed to be our year. On paper, we couldn't lose. Bill Walsh, Al Cowling, O.J. Simpson. Ray Wersching, Dwight Clark, Joe Montana. The Dream Team. OJ & AC both played at the local high school, and the community college, before making it big in the NFL. Local boys make good. These...

    Lunch, Anybody?

    That Girl once told me about where she is from, there is no middle class. There are rich people. There are poor people. The difference being that either you hired people to work for you, or you were hired to work. The people who hire other people, lived in nice big houses, where they hired more...

    Lunch, Anybody?

    It's ham day. I now have a stack of slices and a mound of chopped ham. In addition to about a gallon of pork stock. The best part is picking the scraps off the bone and the bone marrow.

    Feet Up! The Work Boot Thread

    For all I know, the employer provides 1 hour massage breaks. I don't know. And that's my point. I don't think Carl actually knows either. In all fairness, I don't think that he flew to South Africa, brought a hidden camera into the factory to document working conditions, or conducted candid...

    Weston Kay collaborates with Jim Green. Jim Green sponsors Rose Anvil. There is bias. It has been raining. Usual weather related hazards of being in The City. Pools of standing water. Water running in streams downhill. Water pooled around clogged sewer drains. Wet pavement. Wet metal...

    Indeed, it is not well known. Was it something simple, like the wiper motor?

    Feet Up! The Work Boot Thread

    These are not the well built, high priced boots, that are handmade with the finest of materials. These are cheap, mass produced...... and extremely comfortable. Full of cheap foam and rubber to make your feet feel like they are walking on pillows. "Work Boots"? Sure. It depends on the work...

    Feet Up! The Work Boot Thread

    Made in South Africa. The exchange rate for 1 Rand is around $0.05. Not for the squeamish who are considerate of race politics, and abusing low wage workers. These are comfortable. Stitch down construction. Double lasted. Single piece of leather for the vamp. Leather lined. Steel toe...

    Pepino Dulce grows in my yard. It consistently gives fruit. Even now, in Winter, I am harvesting.
