Wait, this is the confession thread, right?

"You can give a niece bacon once, and she will have bacon that day; you can teach a niece to order bacon, and she will have bacon for a lifetime."

An old proverb, which I think applies directly in this instance.

Pretty sure it is "Give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day, teach him to fish and he'll eat for life"

Don't know about any niece, but if she's cute send her my way.

I can understand what you're saying, but my former neighbor's (from 3 neighborhoods ago) third cousin's landlord, while on a mushroom trip, saw a flying pig-god who explained to him that, in fact, the fish saying came as a result of the bacon one. That's just what I heard, I am just the messenger.

Ok this is hilarious. I was looking for some text filler (need it for some work I am doing) and usually on the interwebz, the default filler for anything (usually web design, but in this case I need it to normalize a funky data load) is this Latin "Lorem Ipsum" text.

So I found this:

Awesome!!!

It just came up in google auto-complete, haha. I wouldn't even have thought of it.

Well, on my way home from work I was stopped at a light in a little town that I pass through.

Had to snap a picture for this thread.

BOEHNER BACON BOMB

WEST CHESTER, Ohio — The office of an Ohio congressman who has fought against pork barrel spending was evacuated over a suspicious package that turned out to be full of bacon.

Staff members at the office of House Minority Leader John Boehner (BAY'-nur) became concerned Monday after finding an envelope leaking an oily substance. Police evacuated several buildings before determining the package postmarked from Georgia contained bacon.

A note was included with the bacon, but police didn't commenting on its contents.

Boehner was not in the office.

A spokeswoman says it's ironic someone would send Boehner bacon because he has spent his career fighting pork-barrel spending. He's one of the few members of Congress who shuns earmarks, those home-district projects sought by lawmakers.

However, the Republican has drawn criticism for voting for a $700 billion financial bailout bill that critics say was loaded with pork.

I know its "Bay-ner" but I still read it as "BOH-NER".

Not Boh-ner (new England accent) it's BONER!!!

The special at the sammich shop yesterday was a grilled cheese on sourdough. Sounded pretty good on the face of it. Then I looked and it included avocado and

BACON!!!!!!!! Happy dance ensued, and I was all over that badboy. Now if only they used something besides those sheets of stuff that roughly resembles cheese. . .
