Wumbo Wednesday with Weaselo: C Material

You know how sometimes you don’t entirely know where you’re going with things? Well, tonight’s column is one of them. So let’s get to some things and see where we go. First off: No, I did not win the Powerball. Second:

Marble League Rolldown

The stories so far:

-The Streak is over! Team Galactic’s won TWO events, the first two. Galac-fifth? So far Galac-first as they… then have a goose-egg in the water race. Well, it was a moment.

-Holy shit, the Pinkies won an event. And even more holy shit, the Pinkies lead at the quarter pole, thanks to three medals.

-Quacky got unlucky in the heats behind Minty Swirl in the water race, but that’s racing sometimes. The Green Ducks will definitely take 7th so far after the host’s first event jitters.

-The highest placed former champion? That would be, thanks to their water race win, the O’rangers, currently in 3rd, 17 points back.

(So far the events have been: opening ceremonies/climbing; balancing; the 5m hurdles; and out today, the water race. The next event will be the 5m relay.)

Next up, since we no longer have Friday music, I figured I should get in on that. So since it’s a Marble League Rolldown, I found out they’ve actually been uploading the music recordings onto a separate channel. Like this redo of the Marbula One theme that was used this past season, since the inaugural season’s theme wasn’t actually done in-house.

(Next week we’ll have bands not written for marbles, but we’re on a bit of a crunch here.)

News

NFL says grass to turf non-contacts are statistically the same. I look forward to Doktor Zymm eviscerating those reports on her time off.

California: Hard no on sports betting.

Josh Allen might have a UCL injury.

What’s for sports?

Iceball
The same two slobbers for the last fifteen years: PIT vs. WSH (7:30, TNT)
Setting of Mighty Ducks vs. Former Mighty Ducks: MIN vs. ANA (10:00, TNT)

Roundball
Turf Wars!
The Battle for Most Chaotic: NYK vs. BKN (7:45, ESPN)
(Ime Udoka has not been named coach of the Nets, so… progress?)
The Battle for Less Apathetic: LAL vs. LAC (10:05, ESPN)

You know, this was nowhere near as productive as I hoped. Welp, that’s things, sometimes it be like that. I write these up at work often, and there was a fire drill today.

Write better than I did!

The results of the L.A. Mayor’s race have been stuck at “51-49 with 38% of the vote counted” for about 24 hours now. Everything is probably fine.

I just finished reading The Windup Girl and it’s probably the best book I’ve read this year. And I’ve read quite a few good books this year.

Twitter’s new blue chip verification is working out great!

People have figured out they can have a good bit of fun for only $8.

I enjoyed this one.

Welp. Back home after a brief trip stateside to see Mom. She is 86, feel last month breaking her hip. Rather then repair the DOC did replacement surgery. She came home after about 5 weeks of rehab the day I got there. The advances in medical care that we have seen in my lifetime are truly remarkable. I think she is getting around better now than before the fall. Simply amazing. Life is good my friends.

2Pack

Edit button is not working but I think you all got that she “fell”… although I’m sure she did also “feel” that…

Mr. Ayo

We’re mostly ignorant fat ‘Americans and would never notice that difference.

ballsofsteelandfury

That is wonderful! Good to hear the good news!

TheRevanchist

I still can’t comprehend how MTG got re-elected. She’s dumb as a brick, racist, and looks like the ass end of a baboon with the mud butt. My only guess is that they vote for her only so they can watch her do nothing since she is barred from serving on any committees – kind of like a joke?

WCS

Goes to show how…unique…her constituents are.

Do we really need Georgia in the Union?! I’d be okay with 49-stars on the flag. Its a perfect square, its the flag that helped us win two World Wars.

Plus MTG and all of Georgia can go fornicate their cousins and themselves to their hearts content.

I don’t know why, but I always look forward to the day after Election Day and all the Election Ads suddenly going away:

Redshirt, our very own Balls of Steel has sent me 2 cans of Skyline Chili. Any local tips?

WCS

Toss in an a medical waste bin?

For DFO I will eat one for sure. From what I hear I will need the next day off.

Eat it on Friday or Saturday. That way, you can enjoy football in coma like stupor.

How close are you to Ted Cruz?

He renounced us years ago. He is all yours now.

As close as the Restraining Order allows.

Mr. Ayo

I must direct you to yeah right’s wonderful post on that very topic.

Yes but I have the meat cans, so will be way worse that what our beloved chef concocted.

Lookit them names in the comments. Hell, TWBS was still alive!

Oh shit, that was the one I was thinking of.

Mr. Ayo

Well that’s easy.

  1. Boil some sad spaghetti
  2. Dice up the saddest white onions
  3. Warm up meat can contents with the onions
  4. Shred the mildest cheddar cheese
  5. Drain spaghetti
  6. Plate spaghetti and dump sad meat and onions on top
  7. Smother with the shredded mildest cheese
  8. Try not to cry or puke while shoveling this delicacy down your gullet

Come back Mooooooose!

Mr. Ayo

I support this initiative.
Unfortunately, his beef is with Brick and not Seamus.

Don’t blame me, or I’ll make you disappear too.

Moose was a bit of a diva. He left for his own reasons.

Treat it like a topping and not a main dish. Its not real chili; its Cincinnati chili. It won’t fill you up, but it can be used as an key ingredient.

Either top it with spaghetti and mild cheddar (onions and/or kidney beans optional (4-way and 5-way), garlic is an option if you’re feeling brave (6-way), or serve on top of a hot dog with shredded cheese (mustard and onions optional). You can serve with ketchup if you wish. If you wish to substitute a sausage dog instead, you may, but it may get a bit messy as the chili won’t have room to settle.

Another option is to make Cincinnati chili dip. Chili + Cream Cheese + Cheese. Cincinnati chili is thin as liquid, but when mixed with Cream Cheese and Cheese, it solidifies into a decent dip that can be used with nachos or potato chips.

If you wish to eat it solo, I recommend you treat it like a meat soup.

For all options above, oyster crackers and hot sauce are recommended, if you enjoy.

Mr. Ayo

This is insightful, educational, and absolutely disgusting to read.

Cincinnati, through and through.

I wish one the conditions Joseph Tsai had given him for being able to come back was to retrieve an item from beyond the Ice Wall, in order to prove that it’s real.

Kyrie Irving still thinks OG means Original Goyim

I think it’s really brave of the Ice LioUns to be playing the Ice Alouettes tonight because they clearly have the St. Catherine’s street flu.

Down by 3 late is respectable, considering the long night they had before

WE ARE THE MOST APATHETIC

We are the most pathetic – 500’s

I’d type something but who cares

…wait

It’s 58°F here on the coast, dude. I had to put on a fucking sweater.

Haven’t put on socks yet, but I’m considering it.

Your fucking sweater? Who’s the lucky lass? Does she have great gams like Betty Grable?

Wow! The cliffhangers are absolute bombshells.

I finally found another excellent Scando series-She’s called Katla and if you like cello music, the supernatural and Iceland it’s for you.

HAWT womenfolk, too?

If you like female folks wandering around in parkas, oh man…

litre_cola

Come to Calgary right now.

scotchnaut

Are they in those balloon coats that everyone thinks is so trendy?

litre_cola

They are underdressed right now as they were not expecting this. At least during the snow storm on Sunday and Monday those ladies that came to the resto were very underdressed for the weather.
