    Rain - Love or Hate?

    I quite like rain. Living in Wales it is fairly frequent. I quite like heavy rain. My house thankfully doesn't suffer with flooding. Really hate strong wind though.

    Stem Length

    I know that technically, the longer the stem the cooler the smoke. That makes sense. Is everything else just a matter of appearance? Some like long stems, others short.

    So Maybe Pizza Originated in Pompeii?

    School Me on the Science of Lingering Aftertaste

    Lamb's Stones Anyone?

    I know I shouldn't knock it until I've tried it. But I just can't eat anything weird. I think its a mental thing. I gag just thinking about it. I would try something new to me if it was well cooked and contained no fat, skin, bone or other nastyness. Duck was my latest adventure in...

    Anyone Spot a Pattern Here?

    James Doohan who played Scotty in the original Star Trek had a child when he was about 80 years of age. He must have beamed it up.
