Re: Bot Fly

I literally stopped 17 seconds in, saying to myself: "You won't be able to unsee this if you continue." So I didn't.

I've seen a car like that driving around, periodically.

I only made it 14 seconds.

Its a modern day rendition of Alien

I had some pictures of fungal infections on human skin sprung on me earlier this week, so my "unsee" buffer is full.

I only made it 14 seconds.

I'm trying, with some difficulty, to NOT GO BACK AND WATCH IT.

And now my back is itching. Shit.

I present to you, That Would be a Crime by A Vanished World

I got real lucky with the album cover -- if I was presented that as an album cover...well, let's just say I might have to make an album after that.

I did cheat, however, on the band name -- the first two I got were currently living individuals, and that sounded too much like someone else that wasn't me.

I did not cheat, however, on the album title.

And I did stop on the first non-individual wikipedia entry.

Not a single cheat. Amazing:

Watched the whole bit fly video.

Wonder if you could eat them like the aborigines down here eat witchety grubs.

Maybe Bear Grylls would take the challenge.

The bot fly video was just a warm up for this.

This one's for Birgir:

I rarely have the attention span to watch long videos, but that one is great. However, I don't think that my attention span would allow me to do that job day in and day out. My hat is off to people who can.

That video made me cringe so often it isn't funny. If anybody would take a metal scraper to any of my machines I'd punch their lights out and leaving all those breads unprotected in the racks is madness. Using plates to insert into the ovens... Still, our days are very seldom boring and I'd take it over any 9-5 job.

I have to tell you Birgir, I've been trying to make a decent loaf of bread for a year now...and have gotten next to nowhere. Imma gonna come to Iceland one day and have you show me how to make a decent simple loaf of fucking bread, damit.

No problem, I'll put you in charge of quality control during your stay.

This reminds me, I really should take a picture of our new sourdough breads and show them to Jacob.

SOURDOUGH, I just LOVE sourdough.

There's a bakery in Katoomba called the Hominy Bakery which uses a culture from San Francisco that makes different types of sourdough.

Their baguettes and fruit sourdough are wonderful.

Wholemeal, yeasted, potato, pumpkin, etc. etc.

Their rolls are great as well. You sometimes eat them without anything in them, just a plain wholemeal sourdough roll.

I have to tell you Birgir, I've been trying to make a decent loaf of bread for a year now...and have gotten next to nowhere. Imma gonna come to Iceland one day and have you show me how to make a decent simple loaf of fucking bread, damit.

I know Jacob and Birgir will probably cringe, but for us non-professionals, I highly recommend a bread-maker -- my ex swears by hers, and I can vouch for the quality that comes out of it.
