So today, I called a customer who had this on his voicemail:
"His charm is so contagious, vaccines have been created for it.
Years ago, he built a city out of blocks-- today, over six hundred thousand people live and work there.
He is the only man, to ever ace a Rorschach test.
Every time he goes for a swim, dolphins appear.
Alien abductors have asked him to probe them.
If he were to give you directions, you'd never get lost--and you'd arrive at least five minutes early.
His legend precedes him, the way lightning precedes thunder.
He is the most interesting man in the world....."
While trying to track that down, I found this site. Which is just cool. But also led me to this site...
1. If you have five dollars and Chuck Norris has five dollars, Chuck Norris has more money than you.
2. There is no 'ctrl' button on Chuck Norris's computer. Chuck Norris is always in control.
3. Apple pays Chuck Norris 99 cents every time he listens to a song.
4. Chuck Norris can sneeze with his eyes open.
5. Chuck Norris can eat just one Lay's potato chip.
That made me think of this, and then this, and then this.
"Good for those who are having movie night at their house but only have a bag of Russet potatoes"
Cause that happens to me all the time.
Finally, I ended up at microwavecooking.com
"The History of the Microwave
A Dr. Percy Spencer, a self-taught engineer with the Raytheon Corporation, invented the microwave oven. He first noticed something very unusual during a radar-related research project around 1946. He was testing a new vacuum tube called a magnetron when he discovered that a chocolate bar in his pocket had melted."
Curiously enough, Raytheon is still very much around. They make missile guidance systems.
According to the Austin Chronicle Food Section, "Sometimes there's nothing better than a chub of Velveeta microwaved with Pace Picante, some El Galindo chips, and a Dos Equis."
Which, if you bothered to clink the first link, you understand as my attempt at full circle. Unfortunately I have no idea what a "chub"is.
So there you go.
