We, of the Maligned Moles Mob, a grass roots organization dedicated to the rehabilitation of our image, take issue with the continued usage of the word, “molasses,” in reference to the sweet confection/syrup which should hitherto be changed to “gopherbutts.” Thank you in advance. ~ Mortimer Mole, seems silly to you, but hey, it’s gone on long enough and the pain is real plus gophers just are too dumb to give a darn

So, the good old USA military and government have known, since 1962, the Electromagnetic Pulse from a space exploded nuclear weapon can and will knock out the power grids withing the country; yet have done nothing in the intervening 60+ years to harden our grid against such attack???!!
20 years ago I was part of a group that went to England, & one of the places we visited was an old church that was also being used as a community center in London’s East End. One of the members there, a sweet little old lady, was quick to tell us: “We’re not at all like the East Enders you see on the telly!” 8-D

Hawaii was just barely achieved statehood for three years and its power goes out? Yikes. How did they ever survive?

Postponing Thanksgiving for a week may have saved the pumpkin pies, but didn’t it make the turkey and other food too old?

I thought that Thanksgiving wasn’t official until the presidency of Abraham Lincoln, and later it was made a holiday by FDR.

Molasses is a strong flavor and would mess up the taste of a modern day pumpkin pie.

My father and I used to mix Brer Rabbit Molasses with milk as a late night drink.

If so many Brits are watching EastEnder and having tea afterwards, wouldn’t the TVs cause more of a power surge than the teapots?

I used to make whole wheat pancakes with oatmeal, raisins and walnuts. And top them off with warmed up molasses. Good stuff, Maynard.

In the USA, so many Americans hit the liquor stores after the evening news that the quick shops have to schedule extra staff for that time period.

Herpetologists say the cucumber thing is false. They make fun of it a lot.
