Wonderfully good, I captured the new page.

fun plane! let's see the oldest plane in the history of movies and the oldest in the history of the 2000s.

[Jetée]

MOAB, although this film does not technically include an airplane, it does involve elements of flight and rocketships; also, historically, it is widely-acknowledged as the first recorded science-fiction film.

A Trip to the Moon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Le Voyage dans la lune is a 1902 French black and white silent science fiction film. It is loosely based on two popular novels of the time: From the Earth to the Moon by Jules Verne and The First Men in the Moon by H. G. Wells.

[Ourcrazymodern?]

Ah, I see...
It will be like this
for awhile.

[Ourcrazymodern?]

Not suffering the doldrums
She's still all I can think about, right?
That's how it's supposed to be.

yes , they did

[highdro69]

but that still begs the question, since nasa faked the lunar landing, is it made of cheese?

[cdwonderful]

yes. limburger

[BadNick]

if we could only figure out how to carry some of that moon cheese back to earth, we would have cheese power nearly forever!

[MexicanOnABike]

cool rocket!

nerf cheese

[MexicanOnABike]

nerf gun!

[BadNick]

nerf bars!




ps: Santa, I need a hot rod. Thank you.

[highdro69]

no no no, bars need a rework, not a nerf!

[Ourcrazymodern?]

Already we have
the cheese power we long for:
Don't give it away!

(For X sake, haiku all night, & she has me editing myself(!))

[BadNick]

Please forgive me not only for being cheesy
but also for being redundant

...since I am copying the info below from my post in the "Where In The World Am I?" thread where I am now searching for our dearest uncle phil and looking at things that are "long" ...so what better place to cross post this useless long stuff than in The Longest Thread? ...I ask rhetorically


I keep coming up with great "long neck" related ideas, and very great ideas they are...but then it turns out they are south of Dallas/Ft. Worth

For example, I thought you might be feeding long neck beers to Clay Henry III, the famous beer drinking goat of Lajitas Texas Clay Henry III, Beer-Drinking Goat, Lajitas, Texas but he's too far south


Then I thought you might have been inspired by that recent great thread "Omg!! My Dad Is A Llama" so I checked out Qualtity Central Texas Alpacas from Long Neck Acres and found out that they sell and service alpacas
Long Neck Acres is located in the beautiful Central Texas Hill Country and is home to over 200 Quality Alpacas. We specialize in providing you with superior Alpacas at reasonable prices.



Whether you elect to purchase your Alpacas and bring them home to your own ranch, or invest in Alpacas and leave them in our care, we promise to treat your Alpacas as if they were our own.

Then thinking you might be a longstem rose, I looked up where The Yellow Rose of Texas came from, but she was from the south end near Mexico.

See what I mean? ...I ask rhetorically.

[Jetée]

erg, last week was roosters;

a few days ago it was topics relating to the moon;

now this week, my coincidental psyche is now exposed to a flood of llamas.

Hopefully tomorrow brings a new tandem of triviality that I'll happen upon at every turn throughout the day. I wish for it to be sandwiches.

[BadNick]

Jetée,
let me start you on your gastronomical journey with this sandwich which, coincidentally, I will have for lunch today: it's an Italian chicken cutlet sandwich from Altomonte's Italian Market, it's made on a great crusty sesame bread roll, with tasty tender fresh (never frozen) chicken breast fillets, slightly hand pounded and then lightly breaded and fried just right in fine olive oil, never greasy or overcooked, then add broccoli rabe and roasted peppers, then topped with sharp imported provolone:



...or if you're in a more herbivorous mood, their nearly as delectable veggie & cheese sandwich:

[Jetée]

2nd: Looks like the same sub sans the chicken.

mmm, I shall search for a good sandwich later; this is the best I could come up with today.

[MexicanOnABike]

small.. you need a shot of beer and 1 chip to go with it.

[Jetée]

I was going to post a Scooby-sized sandwich, but I just remembered something even better, and infinitely times tastier; Padma Lakshmi.

YouTube - Hardees_Padma (Extended Version)

(the facts that somewhat contradict the advertisement: one, she is popularly-known as the host of Top Chef, and is a chef herself, so it kinda offputs the logic that she would eat the quality of food found at a Hardee's (which if anything you find on the internet is true, is a sub-par establishment); and two, I've heard in quite a few of her interviews that she is basically a vegan, so as to why she lend her likeness in the slaughter of sweet, delicious and dirty pigs is puzzling. Succulent bacon on a hot day.)

[MexicanOnABike]

she's a messy eater. and I wouldn't lick any food off my hands in the streets... who knows what she touched? !

[BadNick]

talk about sambos and I'm from Philly, so here's a few interpretations of Philly cheesesteaks for your consideration:

[Zooksport2]

I've just put on 10 pounds.... thanks ....

[carrot glace]

man v. food! always makes me hungry

[Zooksport2]

Take this short quiz, consisting of 4 simple questions, to determine whether you are truly qualified to be the 'professional' that you claim to be.



QUESTIONS 1:

How do you put a giraffe into a refrigerator?



ANSWER:

Open the refrigerator, put in the giraffe, and close the door. This question tests whether you tend to do simple things in an overly complicated way.





QUESTIONS 2:

How do you put an elephant into a refrigerator?



ANSWER:

Did you say, "Open the refrigerator, put in the elephant, and close the refrigerator? Wrong.

Open the refrigerator, take out the giraffe put in the elephant and close the door. This tests your ability to think through the repercussions of your previous actions.





QUESTIONS 3:

The Lion King is hosting an animal conference. All the animals attend... except one ... Which animal does not attend?



ANSWER:

The Elephant. The elephant is in the refrigerator. You just put him in there! This tests your memory. Okay, even if you did not answer the first three questions correctly, you still have one more chance to show your true abilities.





QUESTION 4:

There is a river you must cross but it is inhabited by crocodiles, and you do not have a boat. How do you manage to get across?



ANSWER:

You jump into the river and swim across. Have you not been listening? All the crocodiles are attending the Animal Conference with the Lion King. This tests whether you are a good listener.

[MexicanOnABike]

great quiz!

[Jetée]

gee whiz

[BadNick]

cheese whiz...see cheesesteak sambo above (though in my revolutionary spirit of brotherhood in the city of brotherly love, though I prefer the sisters myself, even though there's nothing wrong with brothers, at least most of them, I prefer real cheese to whiz)

[Jetée]

Before I my collective mind moves on from sandwiches onto, maybe golf or something, I found a sammy I want right now: Stareos!

cooking instructions   click to show 

Stareos (from the Stars restaurant in San Francisco)
Yield: 1 1/2 dozen cookies

Cookies:
8 ounces cold sweet cream butter
1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 cups flour
Pinch salt
1/2 cup cocoa powder, sifted

The filling:
1 cup mascarpone
1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

To make the chocolate shortbread:
Combine the butter and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer. Mix on low speed for 15 seconds, using the paddle attachment. Add the flour, salt, and cocoa powder and continue mixing on low speed for 3 to 5 minutes, until the dough comes together. It will look dry just before it comes together.

Put the dough on a lightly floured board and roll it out 1/4 inch thick. With a 2-inch star cutter, cut out the cookies. Chill them for 1 hour in the freezer. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place the cookies so they are not touching on the pan.

Preheat the oven to 250 degrees.

Bake the shortbread for about 1 hour, until firm.

To make the filling:
Combine the mascarpone, sugar, and vanilla extract in a small bowl.

To assemble:
Spread about 1 tablespoon of the mascarpone cream filling on 18 of the cookies. Put the remaining uncoated cookies on top of the creamed cookies, making a "sandwich".

Chances are quite good
I would eat her with gusto
& lick my fingers.

[Esoteric]

Omfg those cheesesteaks look orgasmic.

[highdro69]

i second that

[BadNick]

we are all so lucky to be on TFP so we can see all these wonderous things...

like the largest fish taco in the world



and what might be the longest pizza in the world (notice the fresh basil)



and this is a pretty damn large burger

[Jetée]

the closest thing I've come to a fish taco is Starkist® rolled into pita bread.

[carrot glace]

i' would rather have a burrito, or some enchilada's
