Just Thinking …

A very brief exchange reminded me of a few questions that I’ve pondered repeatedly in my life.  I wondered if you lot out there in internetland could help me.  Either that, or simply damn you, Pip.  The questions follow the theme of:

“How Effing Desperate And/Or Inspired Must Someone Have Been To Discover This Stuff?” :

Who discovered that cress was edible? And how hungry must that person have been?

Mung Beans?  I mean, MUNG Beans, for goodness’ sake?  I know there are hippies out there who like those things, but really? What are they for?

Apparently someone in South Korea published that sausages make great touchscreen stylii (styluses? whatever) for iPod Touches (what’s the plural for them while we’re on the subject?).  How, in the name of all things unholy did they find that out between canine snacks?

If you’re checking your google reader blog lists over the weekend, and maybe slightly less busy than I am right now, please solve these problems for me.

Too many questions for one day maybe, but help me out.  Thanks!

And, sorry.

    Ha ha, I love the hidden comedic opportunities of alt text. God, I’m such a nerd. Nobody usually notices.

    I need answers 😉

    Mung beans are great. Fry onions and garlic in sesame seed oil. Mix with boiled mung beans. Mmmmmmmm. Nice with some brown rice. Oh dear, I am a hippy aren’t I?

    Emma you said “..nice with brown rice.” There is no question. In the words of Cartman from South Park you are a freaking hippy!

    Oh dear. Well at least I don’t wear birkenstocks. Also I tried hemp oil the other day as healthy replacement for normal, nice tasting oil. Urghh, was disgusting. Has weird fish taste, but has never been near fish.

    Why is hemp suddenly so cool? Scruffy-looking fishy-smelling thing.

    Now kebabs, that’s a proper food item. With salad = 1 of your 5 a day 🙂

    I think chicken kebab is fully ok as a food. Just don’t mix with chips or mayo. Avoid the wrestlers forearm stuff though. Again, I’m blessed by that type of kebab making me want to vom. By rights I shouldn’t need to diet. Oh…. there’s the small matter of all that cake.

  7. Phill

    MmmmmMMMmmmm cake. Again though, with careful planning, fruit can be added to make it healthy. Becuae as we all know, fruit cancels out any fats that exist in all cakes. Fact.

    Not really.
