Pining for the Fjords: Almost Didn't Cut My Hair
http://pining.blogspot.com/2011/04/almost-didnt-cut-my-hair.html
Pining for the Fjords. Thursday, April 28, 2011. Almost Didn't Cut My Hair. Summer's basically here already, and long hair in Texas summer is something to avoid. But that sort of motivates me not to bother cutting my hair in spring, knowing that I'll be chopping it all off in summer. But I was tired of my wife's snooty hairdresser, and went into this new place, a chain popping up around town that has a sort of a funky Southwest, Freebirds burritos kind of a vibe if you know what I mean. As a first timer ...

Pining for the Fjords. Friday, February 18, 2011. Your search - "crumpets and tea" "boys from lcc". Did not match any documents. Hrmph What kind of internet is that? It's time somebody fixed that. We are the boys from LCC. But boy, are we sexy! Used by opposing schools to taunt us, generally just before we obliterated them. Posted by Michael Tobis. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Pining for the Fjords: Spinning Tornados
http://pining.blogspot.com/2011/04/spinning-tornados.html
Pining for the Fjords. Saturday, April 30, 2011. Adopting Andrew Sullivan's methodology I point you to interesting stuff elsewhere. There's a huge kerfuffle about attributing severe weather in Alabama to climate forcing. Kevin Trenberth. Come out strongly in favor of "this is the sort of thing"-ism. It is irresponsible not to mention climate change. 8230; The environment in which all of these storms and the tornadoes are occurring has changed from human influences. Which today links to this story. I thin...

http://pining.blogspot.com/2011/01/easy-yummy-cross-cultural-snack.html
Pining for the Fjords. Tuesday, January 11, 2011. Easy yummy cross cultural snack. Black forest ham sliced thin (not shaved though). Cream cheese. (Philly or such. Plain, no pineapples or chives or nothin.). Flour tortilla, as Tex-Mex as possible. HEB brand or El Milagro will do nicely. Regular size (a bit bigger than a ham slice). Apply about 1.5 tbsp cream cheese to one thin ham slice. Prep time about a minute. The NAFTA special. Yummm. Posted by Michael Tobis. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Pining for the Fjords: July 2010
http://pining.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Pining for the Fjords. Monday, July 26, 2010. Vache qui Rit Queso Fresco y Chipotle - Reduced Fat. You think I am making this up but I am not. I have it on Jewish rye just to round out the multicultural experience. It's better than you'd expect but I imagine it is only available in the southwest. I don't think most people elsewhere have any idea of what "queso fresco and chipotle" might taste like, which by the way, this doesn't really very much. Posted by Michael Tobis.
