Food Drive the Easy Way
Posted by TFG on May 10th, 2005
I meant to post about this last week when I read it at The Wife’s place, but events overtake. Micheal Johnson of Rockzilla.net fame is holding a food drive with the North Texas Food Bank. The bottom line is that it’s a good place to donate some of your ill-gotten poker gains to help out the less fortunate in our great Republic. The really thing* about this is that it’s all virtual — clicky, clicky, clicky, done. No digging around the pantry for dusty tins of pork-n-beans, peas-n-carrots, yellow wax beans, or *SHUDDER* lima beans.
Let me take a moment to sing the praises of Rockzilla World, and Mikie. It’s simply some of the best writing and reviewing on the net for the alt.country / Americana / call-it-what-you-will musicosphere. Mike has collected up a posse of dudes and dudettes who really love the music, and it shows. You can’t go wrong checking there on a regular basis if you need some twang in your life.

Scott, this is only food related. Did you hear about the recent discovery of the thought to be extinct Ivory Billed Woodpecker in east Ark.? I am absolutely thrilled about that. Imagine, a bird that size thought to be extint for almost 70 years, and it’s been right there. Brings tears to my eyes. One question though, you have any idea how to cook those things?

You are a sick man, Barney. Go make a donation…

Something you might like-related to food. I got my June 2005 FHM magazine and starting on page 108 there is a spread on making ten classic sandwiches, and The Cuban is one of them-pretty picture as well. R
