Old, but c'mon - right up our alley.

Oh, have you not heard? It was my understanding that everyone had heard
"Well, there seems to be an absence of a certain ornithological piece.
A headline regarding mass awareness of a certain avian variety."
Follow up to What is the word again?

Video: Double Down Take Down Lunch Antics (DD Day)
A plan was hatched for a serious KFC Double Down Take Down by a bunch of us at the office on a friday. Adventures, hilarity, and randomness ensued. Here's a compilation of what I captured from the 'event'. WARNING: May not be for the faint of heart. Or the hungry.
See more of the pics and the cryptic, but informative story here: Lunch Adventures: DD Day Hats off to all involved for the successful execution,
and surviving.
Forget the double down...
We need to get a petition started to get these other artery clogging treats into Canada ASAP. #9 McLobster Roll? Seriously, where the fuck do I find one of these in Canada? Why does Japan have all the weird stuff and tasty food?!

Ben Kenobi: Private Jedeye
Somewhere between Episodes III and IV...
(yes yes, a long time ago, in a galaxy far far away...we know the bit)
Star Wars done as a sort of slapstick film noir. Crazy.

Lunch Adventures: DD day
The countdown started when we read the news. October 18th circled on our calendars. The day the KFC Double Down came to Canada. No, we did not line up to sample yet-another-fine-cuisine brought to us courtesy of our neighbors to the south. No. We decided this event was better suited for a Friday ... when little work would get done anyways.
The Road Trip
What can I say? Charged with the duty to safely transport our lunches back to the office (oh yeah and the passengers too) I cursed every car in my way. Get the fuckouttamyway! I'm on a mission! Plus I'm hungry! What can I say? I turn into my evil twin when I get behind the wheel.
Parking was a minor inconvenience and after a stop off at Best Buy we were in line to order the sodium overdosed treat. 4 combos to go. Diet Pepsi, Mountain Dew (seriously? who drinks that?) and 2 Pepsis. $6.99 for the "sandwich" and $8.99 for the combo. Damn, this had better be one good lunch. Popcorn chicken and the Taco Bell Crunchwrap tempted us as side orders but we came to our senses.
The trip back was marred by the voice of a 40s gangster guy cross mixed with Chief Wiggum. Captain who? Why is the bag so greasy? And what's that about the seat being wet?
The Main Event
Arranged in a pleasing manner for the photo op, the victims quickly grabbed their bag and dove into the Double Down. "What? There's no bread?!" "This isn't a regular piece of chicken" "Hmm, not bad" "Om nom nom!" "OMG look at the grease" "Mountain Dew?! Who drinks Mountain Dew?!"
"Ugh, these fries are terrible"
Thoughts: tasty. The chicken, the bacon, and the sauce work together to produce a magical party in your mouth to which all the farm animals are invited. The cheese had some mixed reactions but the overall consensus was that the cheese had no flavor. The sodium issue was noticeable for one of our victims but generally it was considered be "saltier" than other comparable fast food dining options.
The Aftermath
Nobody dialed 9-1-1. Nobody required CPR. I'd have to say the KFC Double Down is something you should try, assuming you are a reasonably healthy individual. This isn't another Whopper or Big Mac, this is an entirely different food experience. Gluttonous, unhealthy, salty, and a "chickeny-bacon-goodness". That being said I wouldn't let any kids eat an entire one of these. As well I certainly would not add this to my regular eating routine.

Wanted to write something quick on occasion of the 250th post on Yesterday's Cheese. One only has to browse the tag cloud to find tons of gems of mostly humorous and very random things that have come up in our daily work and net surfing. What might have been started around lunch conversations has evolved into a nice archived snapshot of laughs and good times and memories that brightened up our work days and beyond. Cheers everyone.

Super-Dimensional Wedding Cake Macross
Rob at Topless Robot writes
I know awesome people. This is odd, because I am extremely non-awesome myself. But I know and am good friends with Jerry from Sega, who is totally awesome. He just got married to Kat, who I haven't met yet, but is clearly also awesome because she allowed and actively condoned the massive wedding cake based on Robotech's SDF-1 above. LOOK AT THIS THING. LOOK HOW BIG IT IS. And the best part:
He continues,..
Oh yeah. That's Max and Miriya, in their wedding outfits, in the cockpit. Amazing. Jerry and Kat also had a "Voltron Lion Dance" at the reception, which I'm begging Jerry to get me video of.
So please wish Jerry and Kat congratulations, if you don't mind. You know, I'd tell Kat that she got one of the good ones, but she clearly already knows. But Jerry, you hold onto this girl. YOU HOLD ON AND YOU NEVER LET GO. Check out another pic of the SDF-Cake:

CHOP slowmotion felling axe video
Slow-mo celebrating the collision between axe and wood. How better to promote the product - Axes by Best Made Company.
Staring at it angrily, day after day (a work of fiction)
staring at it angrily, day after day. Collar getting hotter, blood pressure higher you break out in an angry sweat. Suddenly, a mosquito bites your arm out of nowhere and you fly into a KILLING RAGE! oh wait - edit! before your killing rage engulfs your brain one last thought twitches through your subconscious. Your fingers move almost of their own volition as your body slowly lumbers out of its chair to begin a reign of terror, slowly twitching - AFK.
grabbing the nearest stapler you run into the lunchroom, screaming unintelligibly - spittle flying everywhere, mad eyes seeing nothing.
blood spurts in tiny drops from your own arms as random staples land and embed themselves into your skin. gulping ragged breath into your lungs, your incoherent screams "Awrraryyawwarryrrrarrrr" betray your Wookie heritage.
-- and then -- you're down!
a leg from nowhere pops out behind the wall tripping you and preventing you from so much as hurting the plants... a coffee cup (tea cup) shatters on the floor unnoticed as you slowly stand, yourself again.
as you look down and see your bleeding arms and broken nutcup, you wonder why you're not coding Io---- crap at your desk and ask aloud "Where's that from?"
You're down again! a strangling pair of hands surrounds your neck, and shards of ceramic embed themselves into your spikes and scalp.
slowly, you stand again and, feeling your head, proudly proclaim "Look what I picked up!"
And you're down again! This time an average asian has tackled your legs while an angry bearded wonder hits you about the head and face with a bent Xwing. strobing Flashes of light from the doorway reveal that this Battle! is being stop-motioned.
as you lay in a pool of your own blood and ceramic, you notice burnt bits of cheese stuck to the floor and decide to keep your fucking mouth shut
you slink back to your desk and never complain about paypal, Io----, or mosquitoes again.
Is it Friday? Feels like Friday. hahaha

Red October Jokes
Sean Connery came round my house to put some shelves up. They weren't level, so all my ornaments fell off. He looked at me with tears in his eyes and said...... "I'm ashamed of my shelf".
Sean Connery gets a call from his agent one day. The agent goes, "Sean, I've got you a job - starts tomorrow, early. You'll have to be there for 10-ish".
Sean furrows his brow and says "Tennish? but I don't even have a racquet."
En Francais: Sean Connery almost married Aretha Franklin. She would have taken his name. "arrete ta connerie"
Sean Connery loves trig. His favorite functions are shine and coshine. (Coshine-play)

Keeping Tron Legacy in the fray - Trailer 2
Not brand brand new, think it was out in July, but it's still awesome. On a bit of a Tron Legacy kick here, expect it to subside and then re-emerge in much worse fashion closer to release date.
