Ferocious Burn

Today I was cooking up some swell food – spicy italian sausage in the oven at 400 degrees – while red onion and zucchini were sauteing in some olive oil – all getting ready to hop into a pot of whole grain egg noodles. When – in the process of putting the super-heavy cast iron frying pan back into the oven, a conflageration of miserable happened. Stuff started to slosh out of the pan – I moved to adjust my angle – the towel that I was using to hold the pan shifted and then I was holding the hell hot metal.

Ice and cold water were my friends for the next couple of hours and every time I would try to go without – yowza! -pain – pain – pain.

I considered sticking a knife onto my foot to distract the pain – but decided that was a horrible idea.

In the end – I probably learned some lesson – not really sure what it is – still too distracted by my dumb hand.

Hopefully the food will be good and make it all a little worthwhile.

Otherwise – I guess there is always the knife option. Or not. Or maybe. Or maybe not. Or ouch!

Cat I saw

Here is a picture of a cat that Socks organized while we were on our walk today.

I think that it is supposed to represent something about how nature is creeping up on us – even while we sleep – so we should wipe it out before it gets to us.

Of maybe it is just a cute cat. I’m not too good with symbology.

A whole new world

Holy bananas you guys.

Here – in the future – where I currently am – I am able to now write posts from my telephone.

I don’t even wanna tell you where I am posting this from right now . . . Okay – fine – I am sitting at my desk – right in front of my computer – but that isn’t the point. The point is magic!!

Now if only I could get this thing to “magically” stop dropping all of my calls – then we would really be getting somewhere . . .

[If you happen to use WordPress – then just go to the app store and you too can share in the magic.]

Who is that man?

Well pals – that man – or at least that voice is none other than my pal Bill Cramer – and he is knee deep in voice over work. A quick aside – normally I would have made up a silly name like ‘none other than Marsupial Taffy-Eater,’ or ‘Cannonball Lemonade Sally’ or whatever – but since his actual name is up top on his website – then everyone here at editing (yes – there is an editing department) decided that the road that we took was the best road to take.

Anyway – this is the niftiest thing – and if you ever need some serious SAG voice over work – then he is for you. Socks and I are going around the neighborhood today looking for dropped change and any cans/bottles that we can find so that we can hire good old ‘Cannonball’ to read us some choice words from our current favorite novel – not sure what the name is – but it involves a tiny brown bunny with a little white tail hanging out on the front yard of a big house.

Go to his website (www.billvo.com) and watch (or just listen to) his stuff!
