The Saturday Night Joke. Or Is It?

Of course it's a Blinker

Are you in the mood to travel? 40 of the most beautiful places in the US.

Business Insider chose 40 of the most beautiful places in the US based on national rankings.
Notable sites include the Pacific Coast Highway, Lake Tahoe, and Central Park.
Acadia, Arches, Badlands, and Great Smoky Mountains national parks also made the list.

Opinions are like noses, everybody has one. I'll be upfront. I have no desire to see Central Park unless NYC is no longer present.

No offense Chef, but why would I eat a Filet-O-Fish? Why?

SOMETHING FISHY I’m an ex-McDonald’s cook and know where to find the ‘closest thing’ to a store-bought Filet-O-Fish but it’ll cost you
McDonald's uses a unique method for their staple item that's hard to find anywhere else

THE Filet-O-Fish is one of the most controversial menu items at McDonald's, but you'd be surprised to see how expensive similar products are.

Former McDonald's Chef Mike Haracz (@chefmikeharacz) took to his TikTok account to share the secret method used to make Filet-O-Fish sandwiches.

I made omelettes on Wednesday night for The Fabulous and I. Nothing like this monster..........

Although I love listening to music I don't have a special place to listen. If you are like me and have some time and money, here are some nifty ideas.

Never bring a vegetable peeler to any kind of a fight. Unless you are a Genius Award Winner.

Celia Barrett, 35, was arrested and charged with two counts of aggravated assault, disorderly intoxication, criminal mischief, exposure of sexual organs and trespassing after the incident that unfolded at the RaceTrac at 2551 54th Ave. in St. Petersburg, according to an arrest affidavit from the Pinellas County Sheriff's Office.

My how dentistry has advanced over the years. I wonder if Nevergiveup practiced this early in his career?

This tooth-covered hat belonged to a traveling tooth-puller in the early 19th century, and you can even play with a 3D model of it. From Southward Council in London's Cuming Collection:

This cap belonged to a street "dentist" or tooth puller. It is made of brown velvet and felt, and decorated with approximately 88 decayed human teeth, once belonging to his patients. The teeth have been drilled and attached with twine. Wearing a cap like this was supposed to imply the "magician" aspect of the dentists work. As teeth pulling was painful and risky and done without anaesthetic, people needed to have some faith in the "dentist", even if it was only the evidence, worn on the cap, that he had successfully plied his trade.
