Saturday Night Jokes and Other Funnies

A priest and a rabbi were sitting next to each other on an airplane. After a while, the priest turned to the rabbi and asked, "Is it still a requirement of your faith that you not eat pork?"
The rabbi responded, "Yes, that is still one of our beliefs."

The priest then asked, "Have you ever eaten pork?"

To which the rabbi replied, "Yes, on one occasion I did succumb to temptation and tasted a ham sandwich."

The priest nodded in understanding and went on with his reading.

A while later, the rabbi spoke up and asked the priest, "Is it still a requirement of your church that you remain celibate?

The priest replied, "Yes, that is still very much a part of our faith."

The rabbi then asked him, "Have you ever fallen to the temptations of the flesh?"

The priest replied, "Yes, rabbi, on one occasion I was weak and broke my faith and made love to a woman."

The rabbi nodded understandingly and remained silent, thinking about five minutes.

Finally, the rabbi said, "Beats a fucking ham sandwich, doesn't it?"

Drink of the Night

The peanut butter and jelly sour - turning a classic sandwich into a cocktail

For the Peanut Butter Whisky 500 ml Bourbon Whisky 100 g Peanut butter

For the Drink
60 ml Peanut Butter Whisky
40 ml Lemon juice
30 ml Strawberry jam
1 dash Angostura bitters
1 dash Saline solution (10 grams of salt, 40 grams of water)
1 eggwhite
Miniature PB&J sandwich for garnish

First, prepare the peanut butter whisky. Melt the peanut butter over the stovetop or in a microwave and combine it with the whisky in a jar. Mix it up and let it infuse for a few hours or over night.

Put the peanut butter and whisky mix in the freezer for an hour for the fat to solidify, then remove the solids and strain the remaining liquid through a tea strainer and a coffee filter. This process is a lot more messy than fat washing with "pure" fat (e. g. with lard or coconut oil) and hence requires the somewhat annoying step of filtering through a coffee filter.

Combine all ingredients in a shaker, shake with ice for 20 - 30 seconds and pour into a tumbler filled with ice. Garnish with a miniature PB&J sandwich.

Be honest - would you try this??

Who invented the sandwich? Not sure he invented it, but he gets some credit.

The sandwich, as we know it, is often credited to John Montagu, the 4th Earl of Sandwich. Legend has it that during a prolonged gambling session, the Earl requested meat tucked between two pieces of bread to eat without interrupting his game. The convenience of this meal led to its eponymous name. However, the concept of placing meat or other fillings between bread-like layers has ancient precedents.

Give me a Diablo Sandwich, a Dr. Pepper, and make it quick.

It's very possible to eat a sandwich for each meal of the day. You could start with a kaiser roll filled with fluffy eggs and cheese for breakfast, house a po'boy with fried shrimp and hot sauce for lunch, and end with a cheesesteak for dinner. Our point: There's a sandwich for every mood, and we have a lot of them on this guide. Below, you'll find 18 of our favorite sandwiches in cities across the country.

Former DOJ employee, Sean Dunn, the pink shirt DC sandwich thrower that stopped at Subway after his power cleanse had his day in court. He couldn't win a fight against a screen door, but did win in court. Was hoping for minimally some community service - wearing a sandwich board. Words are violence but apparently a thrown sandwich is not. Modern jurisprudence: Mean words = felony. Throwing a ham sandwich at an ICE agent = expressive gesture. Got it.

Amusing. Someone took the time to do a bit of legal research on sandwich as a weapon.

Standing Black (1891) on its head, the Supreme Court in Heller expanded the definition of 'arms' as used in the Second Amendment to include any and all instruments not yet known in the Founding Era, to wit adding the Glock and the AR-15 to the billy club, the Bowie knife, the Arkansas toothpick, the slung shot, and the sword cane (District of Columbia v. Heller, 554 U.S. 570, 2008).

It goes without saying, though clearly we are saying it anyway, that the Court's now-expanded definition of what constitutes a weapon not subject to restriction encompasses the sandwich per se, which was known in England in the 1760s and is cited by Jane Austen in 1800, years which span the Founding Era.

Club ONT Proofreading and Editing

Tonight's lesson in humility and embarrassment: What have been some of your most spectacular typos or editing errors - in email, text, or the comment section?

This "D" sent a text to the wife of a friend: I will leave the key in the lick box. Was supposed to be lock box. Not yet lived that one down.

Even the Bible has one of the more spectacular errors. Referred to as the "Wicked Bible."

This legendary edition became known as the "Wicked Bible." King Charles was not amused by the infamous printing blunder. He ordered the Bibles recalled and destroyed, took away Barker's license to print Bibles, and fined him 300 pounds (that was a lifetime of wages in those days). It is believed that only 11 of the original 1,000 Bibles exist today.

Top 10ish Comments of the Week

Club ONT was brought to you by the Grilled Triple-Decker Hot Dog Sandwich

Exit question: is a "hot dog" also a "sandwich"?

The National Hot Dog and Sausage Council acknowledges that hot dogs were considered sandwiches in the past, but now deserve a category separate from sandwiches. "Limiting the hot dog's significance by saying it's 'just a sandwich' is like calling the Dalai Lama 'just a guy.'"

NOTICE: If a six foot four, muscular man from Brussels offers you a sandwich, beware. Even though he may appear to speak your language, there is a chance that said sandwich might be infected with vegemite.
