Yank's Free Range Turkey Trot Warming House and Bondage Barn

I would try all those, at least once.

Some of the best sammie experiences come around through experimenting, and trying things a little outside the box.

[SNIP]

I enjoy trying new things all the time. I just reject the notion that a sandwich that contains only one item of three from my favorite boyhood snack and replaces two of those items with three others that are completely unrelated can be called the same thing. When Paul McCartney sings these days with several band members who aren't named John, George, or Ringo, they aren't The Beatles, for fuck's sake.

Ah, gotcha.

I misunderstood your post and thought you had issue with modifying, or adulterating cherished sandwiches.

And I agree with you. If you are going to deconstruct, and refashion something, call it something else.

I feel the same about music as well - if we can stick with your band analogy for a moment. Have you noticed this wacky 70's music redux taking place, where one or two original band members are 'reforming' and touring under the original supergroup moniker, playlists laden with hits from yesteryear, only with 80% of the original band missing and / or dead?


Paul: Ringo, mate. Tighten the drum heads, I've booked us a couple gigs.

Ringo: Ta Paul. The Apollo? Wembley? Back to Shea Stadium?

Paul: No. A couple casinos, and an amusement park.

Ringo: Smashing. Are we going as an All-Star Band.

Paul: No, no. The Beatles.

Ringo: Really? Will Sean be coming out, stepping in for dad? John would've like that.

Paul: I never even thought of that, no. John Mayer is going to do John's bits. It'll be great. I saw him do Don't Let Me Down on the YouTube. Good stuff.

Ringo: Oh right, I saw that. Who you thinking for George? Jeff Lynne? Tom Petty? Are there any other Wilbury's left?

Paul: Oh, I don't know. I've asked Slash. He seems like a nice, quiet chap.

:D
 
*cough cough*

Yeah, Yank. Have you tried it? :D

And that's quite the cleanup job on Santa, btw! :eek:

See below.

And yes, it seems that a shave and a haircut did wonders for the old guy.

<snip> But recently, using some of this year's bounty, I surreptitiously slathered some chunky fig preserves on the second piece of toast before capping the sandwich, and served it to my wife. <snip>

I am salivating! No, really!

S-A-L-I-V-A-T-I-N-G

Nom! :cattail:
 
That was a little more than a shave and a haircut. Just 'saying. :D

*sees below*

Yeah. So I'm gong to take that as a no. :rolleyes:

*Notes the troubling reading comprehension of an aspiring eroticist*

I didn't say that I didn't like the concept of the sandwich, just that its name was a heresy.

Want to sit on Santa's lap now that he's spent a few weeks in the gym?

You also didn't say that you'd tried the sandwich.

*notes troubling decline in reading comprehension of curmudgeonly Santa*

And, Santa's lap is looking considerably more sit-able. :p

Having not tried the sandwich would only be a disqualifier for someone who was claiming that it would not be edible. As I did not make that claim - and, in fact had already admitted to enjoying trying out new foods - I contend that not having tried the sandwich was irrelevant to the issue. You, on the other hand, have wholeheartedly dismissed the hallowed Fluffernutter as disgusting and gross without so much as ever having been in the same room as one. :p

Hahahahahahahaha! Okay. Next time I "happen" on a room with a fluffernutter I'll let you know. :p
 
I made you a promise didn't I?

I believe so, but don't you think it would be polite to share it in public? ;)



LOL

Btw I may be the only one, but I prefer your other Santa AV. Just saying...

As I recall, you were an early adopter of the drunken Santa AV. Thing is, as I get closer and closer to resembling Santa in my everyday life, I yearn for the days when Santa and I were both a tad younger.

A tad younger is one thing. That boy looks younger than my son-in-law!

I think you should post... yourself. :) In a red sweater and a nice blazer, maybe.

With a flogger. You know, for the reindeer. :cool:

First you believe in Santa.
Then you play Santa.
Then you'll look like Santa.
