Inventor of Stove Top Stuffing Dies

Ruth M. Siems will be prepared and cremated in just three (3!) easy steps.

Her ashes will then be reposed in a glazed turkey.

The viewing will occur tomorrow, on Thanksgiving, but the actual funeral will not happen for the traditional three days, which coincidentally is precisely when the turkey and stuffing sandwiches run out.

I question the timing.

I just hope he stays moist long enough to enjoy him. Too dry stuffing = devil's work.

Cheers,
Dave at Garfield Ridge

Will the gravy contain her giblets?

Wait a sec-- it was a SHE?!?

C'mon, you have to be kidding me. Women *cook* stuffing, they don't *invent* it.

Are we sure she wasn't really whacked by the big potato interests? I question the timing.

kev,
Funny, except it's pronounced "BIG POTATO!!"

POTATOBURTON !?!

Ace,

I love the "I question the timing" mantra!

Keep it up. It really pisses off the (L)s.

I do not question your timing.

If I remember right, the whole "I question the timing" thing started during the Clinton years, when some right-wingers were trying to claim that his bombing of Iraq (or was it al-Qaeda in Sudan?) was a distraction from the Monica affair.

Actually I believe the questions of timing were leveled at Ms. Lewinsky, in regards to how that dress got stained in the first place.

SJK,

"I question the timing" was actually first uttered by Henry Ford's shop technician (Fred P. Smithers) with regard to a balky engine, circa 1906. He was dead wrong - as usual.

I love the "I question the timing" mantra!

To tell the truth, I am so sick of that tired joke that I want to throttle everyone who uses it.

C'mon, be original.

Say "heh" or "indeed".

Oh, and so NOW you bring it up?

Heh.

Ms. Siems was instrumental...in arriving at the precise crumb dimensions - about the size of a pencil eraser.

Go on, guys. Make light of Ruth's contribution to Americana.

Pencil eraser sized bread crumbs.
Who knew!

1977 interview shows that Barbara Walters has always been a seaward and Dolly Parton always had "country class"
Walters actually asks Dolly Parton if she knows that people think she's a joke. This because Walters can't get over the fact that a show-woman has 1, big breasts, and 2, dresses a bit outrageously because, get this, she's an entertainer. A stage performer. You know, someone people pay money to see live and expect them to put on a show.
She never would attack Liberace for wearing glitter-tuxedos. But she's mad that Dolly Parton makes Barbara Walters look bad through association (by being a woman). Babs, you wish people associated the two of you. Believe me, we can tell the difference.

Months ago, I reported that the final Zodiac cypher had been cracked and the name of the killer revealed. And the name of the killer turned out to be someone suspected in the unsolved Black Dahlia murder. The general tone of my mention of this was "serious you guys, this is real."
Well, it's not real. It's total bullshit.
Sorry about that. I did two things: 1, I bought into something, a conspiracy theory really, because it was new and exciting. And 2, I allowed a self-declared "expert" to snow me over with his "expert" claims about solving ciphers, an alleged expertise I could not challenge because I know practically nothing about codebreaking. I remember being similarly swindled by self-declared "experts" babbling about "chromatic aberrations." (Although I didn't really buy into that, but I found it "interesting" and I wasn't strongly skeptical about it. Hey they said they're "experts," they must know that they're talking about, right?)
I screwed up. It won't be the last time, I'm sure.
