    With all the hunger and starvation in the world…you go and make a giant ice cream sandwich? Shame on you Hy-Vees

    Look at the clown in the drawing taking a swipe at it, too. Never going to follow that up…

    Why does the middle “detailed tiger painting” look more like a cheetah or Jaguar? Same for Number 3….

    I’ve been to an Iowa branch of Hy-Vee once. It was the year my older brother graduated getting his U of Iowa doctorate. What I bought at the store —and still haven’t completely emptied— was Hy-Vee brand cold/hot pain relief cream; it was for a sore wrist. In the meantime, how many people did take to eat that 1,343-kilogram ice cream sandwich?

    It’s a good thing that the ice cream sandwich was 9,000 miles away from those hot and thirsty tigers.

    One day a hermit comes down from the mountains and into town.He goes into the saloon and has a drink. He says to the bartender, “are there any women around here?”.The bartender tells him “no, but there’s old Joe out back”. The hermit says no thanks I don’t go for that stuff, finishes his drink and heads back up into the mountains. Six months later he comes back to town and back to the same saloon. He has a drink and again asks the bartender if there were any women in town. Again the bartender tells him “no, but there’s old Joe out back”. The hermit says “bah I told you I’m not into that”, and heads back into the mountains. Another six months goes by and the hermit comes back to town and goes back into the saloon. He asks the bartender, "so do you have any women around here yet? The bartender tells him there’s still no women, but there’s still old Joe out back.So the hermit leans toward the bartender and lowers his voice and says “if I go out back with old Joe, who’s going to know about it?”. The bartender looks at him and say’s “well you’ll know about it, and I’ll know about it, and of course old Joe will know about it”. “Then there’s the three other guys out back, they’ll know about it”. The hermit say’s, “three guys? what three guys?”. The bartender says, “the three guys that have to hold old Joe down, he’s not into that either”.

    Years ago, there was a sundae so ginormous it would have taken 100 people or more to eat it.

    I’m sure Carlos was delighted to be found and returned to all the things he ran away from.

    Take care, may esteemed social scientist Shirley Anne “I Wish I Were A Marianas Snailfish” McShord be with you, and gesundheit.

    Guinness World Records today. This one is a quicky, in more ways than one.

    A man broke the Guinness World Record by playing the same piano key 1,000 times in 1 minute.

    He then went home and broke the world record for most satisfied girlfriend.

    Until next time.

    Carlos Sanchez really went off the grid; and probably his rocker too.

    Sivaji The Boss is a film from southern India about a software architect who creates a non-profit foundation. There is a song-and-dance number with about 500 people. “To add more colour to the sequence, a 50-member team of Puli Kali artists from Thrissur were employed by Shankar as background dancers.” (Wikipedia). You can catch glimpses of them in this video

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J2GXBLVZk60 (It’s 5½ minutes.)

    Here is a still picture on Wikipedia of Puli Kali art https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Puli_Kali#/media/File:Pulikkali_during_Onam.jpg

    I wonder if Dr Carlos collected his own life insurance and lives tax free

    At a Clemson football game I enjoyed watching a comely co-ed in a tiger-print bikini & her body painted orange with black stripes.
