Using an adapted Borg Warner torque converter housed in a Mulliner Park Ward body and based on an original idea of Vanden Plas, it was found that a transverse mounted Windhurst machine could generate sparks to the level of 12.36 Monroes. Tony Curtis, a known Monroe bagger, joked about ‘kissing Hitler’ but is not believed to have been referring to Konrad Heim.Jim Baxterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10817293012642419524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19662178.post-75165164322176143832010-02-11T23:16:56.429+00:002010-02-11T23:16:56.429+00:00'Saxa' - dearie me.

Some prefer more exotic, non-dairy flavours. Currying is a popular alternative. <br /><br />Currying is the application of condiments to a function, such as a wedding, funeral, or Bar-Mitzvah. Curries are created in a Madras Turmeric Laboratory, aka Matlab. Matlab also provides for real-time garbage collection of used ICEPACKs from curry house toilets. It is a direct descendent of the numerical carpentry environment of precision cabinet-making (W-ORKSHOP) fomented by Thomas Chippendale. Matlab is not unrelated to Supercollider, itself a homonymic epigone of a practice of James McCartney’s grandmother, remembered by her grandson only as a depleted engram ( the name of the practice, not his grandmother), involving the algorithmic deconstruction of superheated lentils and the hypothesised Higgs’s split-pea ‘maelstrom’ in stockpots (i.e. ‘soup-colliders’ in S-Lang). See also the array slicing of leeks and the SAXO flavour detector now in operation at CERN.<br /><br />Refs:<br /><br />http://www.engr.uconn.edu/~jeffm/Papers/curry.html<br /><br />http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MATLAB<br /><br />http://lambda-the-ultimate.org/node/2393<br /><br />http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SuperColliderJim Baxterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10817293012642419524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19662178.post-82170183950223882222010-02-11T22:24:13.527+00:002010-02-11T22:24:13.527+00:00I feel McIntryre's works to be a little sent E...I feel McIntryre's works to be a little sent Emmental.Wrinkled Weaselhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05291551539649118631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19662178.post-78681571132826082962010-02-11T21:44:31.381+00:002010-02-11T21:44:31.381+00:00But let the great man speak for himself.

Suspected of copying his festinating gait from Lord Uxbridge, McIntyre was well-known in the cafes of Toronto for his habit of bringing his own cutlery to whichever bacon outlet he had chosen as the beneficiary of his quotidian patronage, a theme later returned to in the Roman a Clef known as ‘As Good as it Gets’, although, as with many Hollywood tropes, something of the strong flavour of the original was lost. In particular, McIntyre was famous for rebuffing callers to his door with the phrase, ‘Sell cheese someplace else, we’re all stocked up here’, which was Lost in Translation thanks to Sofia Coppola.Jim Baxterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10817293012642419524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19662178.post-79941432733398529482010-02-11T16:59:46.826+00:002010-02-11T16:59:46.826+00:00Welcome to the blog, Mark.

Totally btw, the first I heard of The Universality of Cheese, was from a chap I had a drink with in the bar of the Caledonian Sleeper last year. That was long before the, erm situation, but even then strangers on trains were discussing it.Wrinkled Weaselhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05291551539649118631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19662178.post-81992941835196391252010-02-11T16:26:06.849+00:002010-02-11T16:26:06.849+00:00Mmmm moussaka, welcome back old chap.Mmmm moussaka, welcome back old chap.Administratorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17028259430483576141noreply@blogger.com
