I am deliberately abusing my editorial powers to post this here just because it’s awesome. Nerds of the universe: sigh in unison.
As I said yesterday, Spring has yet to spring here in the Arctic Midwest. That doesn’t stop me from dreaming of vacation season and what adventures I may have. Hell, even Storm Troopers — the henchmen of evil — get a little vacation time. [Image Credit: Surfing [...] The National Museum of Computing at Bletchley Park has started a new project. They are building a replica of the EDSAC computer, which put England on the map for computing excellence when it ran its first program — calculating a series of prime numbers — in 1949. Hit the jump for an overview of the project. I don’t mean to start a debate on religion, but I think that we need to rethink how we define the world’s great religions.

[Image Credit: Italdred on Tumblr (WARNING: Autoplay music)] A friend of mine works for Henkel and worked on a product called Alodine EC2. Alodice EC2 is a titanium metal oxide (TiO2) coating for aluminum, titanium and other metals that doesn’t chip. Obviously, for materials like steel, if the coating is chipped then the inner metal can start corroding. But that’s boring. What’s not boring is a company called Titanium Twister has used this technology to make a better replacement beater for the Kitchenaid Stand Mixer. OK, that’s not all that exciting, either.

You might have heard of him. Well, Sparky threw down the gauntlet yesterday, and I felt I had to respond. Sadly, I did encounter some limitations, as by the time I was done work last night, it was after 9PM, and most places were already closed. This severely limited my ability to collect the required ingredients, so I’m afraid you’ll have to take this as a representative example.

Nevertheless, this should give you a solid idea of my version of a Grilled Cheese. And I want to make another one already. Yes folks, it’s that time of year again, it’s National Grilled Cheese Sammich day! Never mind that it is also National Grilled Cheese sammich MONTH, I need an excuse to grill up one of these tasty treats like I need an excuse to breathe. This just gives me an extra official reason to gloat about it. Now, there is a secret to making grilled cheese sammiches that I was happy to keep to my chubby self, but a certain Canadian dark-overlord decided to blab it all over the intertubes. This got the attention of regular commentor Mr Biggles, and the upshot of all this is that Mr Biggles demanded a post on said treasure. Who are we to deny him? The uuber secret if you were wondering, Continue reading It’s National Grilled Cheese Sammich Day!! |
