Monkey Monday: Monkey Knows Kung-Fu

This is one monkey you don't want to meet in a dark alley. Come to think of it, if there are any monkeys you'd like to meet in a dark alley, perhaps you need to re-evaluate some things in your life.

Post Pluto Punch-out, New Mnemonic Needed

As you may have heard, the International Astronomical Union has decided that Pluto is no longer a planet, but a "dwarf" planet. Basically, this means Pluto is just the first of all the Trans-Neptunian Objects that don't quite make the grade for full planet-hood.

What does this mean for you and me? It means "My Very Excellent Mother Just Served Us Nine Pizzas" is now worthless.

I would like to propose a new mnemonic device: "My Very Excellent Mother Just Served Us Noodles"

Yes, I know, it's brilliant. You can thank me later.

This food Looks like The Joker would wear it.

In the cafeteria today at lunch, they had steamed broccoli and purple mashed potatoes. I didn't have any because I've been very bad this week with meals of undetermined caloric value consumed whenever I would get a chance. In other words, I've been eating a lot of junk food and pizza instead of my normal salad for lunch. This needs to stop soon, or I'm headed back above 200 lbs mark. Today was one of the first days this week that I actual made it down to the cafeteria and headed straight for the salad bar, without first checking out the culinary creations. Back at my desk, John returned from his lunch excursion with a meal the required some googling. I had heard of purple skinned potatoes, but never potatoes purple straight through.

I'm interested in trying to cook with some of these crazy potatoes but I think being color blind might lead to some dishes other people would be afraid to eat.  I mean, more than my cooking normally makes people afraid to eat.
