Spoons


D and I are having a rather spirited debate today. I say that long spoons have better stirring torque than standard every day spoons. The ease of stir is very important to me. D likes the stirring control he/she gets from the, average ho-hum, regular spoon. D also adds better sensitivity and lump feel as attributes of the short spoon. I, on the other hand, prefer the superior vibration dampening and increased reach of the long spoon. Lets compare:
regular spoon---------------------------- long spoon
160 mm ----------- overall length---------- 200 mm
105 mm------------ handle -----------------150 mm
55 mm--------------spoon------------------ 50 mm
7 mm--------------- depth------------------ 6.6 mm
36 mm--------------bowl width------------- 32.5 mm

com tarter's bringing lunch


Well, everybody else blogs about nothing so here goes. It is cloudy and cold today. D is busy wrenching away, and com tarter is on his way with noodles and tofu. I am sitting here thinking about hunting accidents and general bullsh*t. The furnace just kicked on and ZZ Top is playing on the ipod. The phone rang a few minutes ago, but no one was on the other end. A guy just walked in the door, D has it covered. Billy Gibbons is a really good guitar player. We got a new sticker today. Now a real sad song is playing, I may cry. No, I don't cry, much. The battery on my cell phone needs charged. I left the cord at home, hope it makes it all day. The phone rang again, it is a sales call. Some one has a better energy drink. I need more energy. Oh ya, that reminds me, com tarter is bringing lunch. Tofu is better that energy drinks, I think. D just told me that he got that one all cleaned up. Now he is making a note or something. Hum, hum. Where is com? The Hand Me Downs are singing now, I like them. Ipods are good. D just noticed the lack of com, burrrrrrp. I have been out of town for a few days, bump, bump. Aspen is nice this time of year. I must go back. Gee, I do, about 20 times next week. Where in the hell is my lunch. D just used the 1/4 inch drive torque wrench, he/she is happy. It is a really nice wrench. Now George Morgan is doing a very caucasian rap about truck drivin. How is the weather in Madison? Com is here. Lunch was great. Com rocks.
